This 1966 Ford Mustang convertible was ordered through the San Jose, California sales office in Emberglo with color-coordinated upholstery and an A-code 289ci V8, and the selling dealer reports it remained registered in the state through their acquisition in 2024. The engine was rebuilt in 2003, and the car was cosmetically refurbished in 2008. It has a black soft top, 14″ styled-steel wheels, GT-style lights and dual exhaust, bucket seats, and a center console. This Mustang is now offered in Pennsylvania with the owner’s manual, yellow-on-black California plates, and a clean California title.
The car was ordered in Emberglow and features include a power-retractable black convertible soft top, tinted glass, and chrome bumpers. The GT-style rear valance has dual exhaust tips, and GT-style grille lights are also fitted.
The body was stripped and refinished in its original color in 2008, and the top has also been replaced. Yellow-on-black California plates are included.
The car rides on 14″ style-steel wheels with 195/76 Dunlop SP60 tires. It has power steering and four-wheel drums.
The cabin features front bucket seats and a rear bench trimmed in Emberglo and Parchment vinyl. The seller notes some interior components are replacements, and the car has a center console and a push-button AM/FM radio.
Instrumentation consists of a 140-mph speedometer and gauges for fuel level, oil pressure, amperage, and coolant temperature. The five-digit odometer shows under 31k miles.
The A-code 289ci V8 was factory rated at 225 horsepower, and the seller indicates the engine was rebuilt in 2003.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a C4 three-speed automatic transmission.
