1965 Ford Mustang 8359 Miles Wimbledon White Coupe 289ci V8 5 Speed Manual
1965 Ford Mustang --
When Ford introduced the Ford Mustang in 1964 an instant love affair with the American Pony Car was born. The Mustang was smaller, lighter, and more nimble that any American manufacturer had produced thus far. This coupled with its fresh design, the Ford Mustang became a must have among the American public. Carroll Shelby was a good friend of Ford Motor Co. and his company, Shelby American would soon gain worldwide acclaim with their modified Mustangs and Shelby Cobras. The... 1965 GT350 was based on the standard Mustang GT but featured a whole host of upgrades. Less than 600 GT350 were produced in 1965 and they fetch high prices today making them popular for reproduction. GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this very excellent GT350 replica for your consideration.

It originally had a chassis code of 5 R 09 A 210075 63A C 26 13R 72 A 5. The car was repainted in authentic Wimbledon White with Guardsmen Blue stripes and all of the body panels are original to the car and numbers matching. It features a rebuilt and bored 289cid V8 with a whole host of upgraded parts. Edelbrock High Rise intake, Edelbrock 4bbl carb, Hooker Headers, larger radiator, Comp Cams, and Harlan Rocker arms are just some of the modifications.
