THIS IS NOT YOUR AVERAGE MUSTANG. ITS A SURVIVOR. TAKE A CLOSE LOOK!YOU ARE LOOKING AT ONE OF THE ABSOLUTE BEST UN-RESTORED 1966 MUSTANG CONVERTIBLE SURVIVORS YOU WILL EVER FIND. AND ITS RED ON RED/V8/4SP!
This '66 Mustang convertible before you is one of the best un-restored first-generation survivor Mustangs you will ever come across. And it's the perfect ALL AMERICAN DRIVING MACHINE: '66 MUSTANG / CONVERTIBLE / RED ON RED / V-8 / 4SP / SURVIVOR!!! All the big important boxes are checked off and driving this gem you can absolutely see why Shelby picked the early generation 289 4sp Mustangs to build his legendary GT 350s from.  I have owned this Mustang for many years and have not seen a nicer un-restored survivor '66 convertible anywhere. not even during the last 10 years searching here on ebay. I am a car guy plus a Mustang fan and since the mid 70's  I have had and shown over a dozen Mustangs including : Boss 9. several Boss 2s. a few 428 CJs. a factory '69 GT Mustang convertible R code/428CJ with only 12K original miles. plus several others. I love low mile very original survivor cars and that has been my passion. so I have more than a good idea on what a nice original Mustang truly is. And as far as original un-restored condition. this '66 is right near the top. If your on the hunt for the absolute nicest and best original unrestored 1966 Mustang convertible that you can find. than this could be it. This quality of a survivor rarely comes around or in a more desirable color combo / drive-train so don't miss out on it.

FUEL LOG. LINKAGE. AND ORIGINAL STYLE AIR CLEANER  ASSEMBLY. BUT ONLY IF YOU USE THE BUY-IT-NOW OPTION.  The tri-power set up would be a crowning jewel to this already impressive Mustang.   If you do not use the buy-it-now option. you will not get the Shelby Tri-power unit as a bonus.

Remember this is a survivor so wear is to be expected. The paint and interior are in great condition for their age as you can see by the un-edited pictures and I believe as nice as you will find for an unrestored but highly maintained vehicle of this age. I am available and encourage you or anyone you choose to come and inspect the car during the auction run time prior to placing your bid. This Mustang has been doing show duty since the mid 80s and is nicely detailed and highly maintained. Regarding the mechanics. I feel confident that I could get in and drive this Mustang from CA to NY with out any issues whatsoever and I do drive it on 100 mile trips to shows. The 289 motor runs amazingly strong. Trans shifts perfectly up and down. Car tracks perfectly straight down the road and stops perfectly straight. no pulling to any side even under hard breaking. All lights. radio. cigarette lighter. and heater work. The convertible top is newer and is absolutely perfect. When the top and windows are all placed in the up position. everything still aligns as it did when new from the factory. Even under the dash is in amazing condition and looks just like it did when it left the factory. All the plating is still bright and everything still looks like new! Overall this is just an amazing car that must be seen in person to fully appreciate.  
I reserve the right to end the auction at any time for any reason as it is also listed locally for sale.
