The first generation Ford Mustang was a unique machine developed under head engineer, Donald N. Frey and the watchful eye of legendary automobile executive, Lee Iacocca, who was then the General Manager of the Ford Division. The idea was to build an entirely new segment that revolved around a style including a long hood and short cabin that would be called the 'Pony car''. The concept was brought to life in 1964 when Ford released its first-generation Mustang, a car with a distinctive and sporty design coupled with impressive performance figures that soon inspired their competition to follow suit. This 1966 Ford Mustang Coupe is reportedly in showroom condition, a second-owner vehicle, and is currently up for sale in North Carolina. The car reportedly has just 57,000 original miles, and comes with the original ownership documents.
Even before it ever reached customers, the Mustang was a huge hit within the company. Designer Gale Halderman stated that the engineers and drivers that tested the Mustang were so impressed by how it looked, from its low, aggressive stance, short wheelbase, and low race car-like seating position. This stunning example is swathed in metallic sky blue exterior paint. The external chrome bits of the car look to be in good condition as well, especially its set of chrome floating bumpers, a trademark of the first-gen Mustang. This car is fitted with drum brakes and retro style Hankook whitewall tires. The cabin of the vehicle consists of what is reported to be the original, two-tone 'Pony Blue' leather interior, which is a brilliant combination of white and a light shade of blue similar to the exterior. the interior too has a few chrome trims such as the three-spoke steering wheel and chrome radio, both of which have been framed with a beautiful wooden finish.
Under the hood of this 1966 Ford Mustang Coupe is its original Thriftpower 200ci (3.3L) inline 6 engine that produces around 120hp at 4,400rpm. It’s also reported to have an aftermarket cam on it. Drive is sent to the rear wheels via a three-speed automatic transmission.
