This Mustang isequipped with an auto trans and has 69,000 original miles (odometer currently shows 32,999 but was reset to 0 in 1983 when the car was restored (it had 36,000 on it at the time, which is reflected on the clear IN title). An extremely nice Mustang convertible that was purchased by the previous owner on 05/05/1983 and then sent to Jerry Regynski of the well-known Mustang and Shelby restoration shop TelStar Motors in Mitchell, South Dakota for a complete freshening. The car was gone through inside and out incl. a repaint in the original color, a new windshield installed, complete renewal of the brake, exhaust, electrical and cooling systems,thechrome trim and rubber gaskets were freshened or replaced, and an engine freshening was completed. The interior was cleaned and preserved but not replaced and new tires were installed.This Mustang has had 1 repaint in the original color and has had 2 new convertible tops installed. This example has has power steering, a power top and factory a/c but no power brakes. Decoding the VIN shows it was built in Dearborn MI (F) with a 289 2-valve motor (C). It's a convertible (08) with luxury interior and bucket seats (76B). Emberglo body (V) with parchment and Emberglo luxury interior (F4). Production of June 1966 (25F) 2.80 axle with a C4 auto trans. As a side note the exterior color Emberglo was a 1966 only color. According to Jim Smarts Production Guide, 5.6% of 1966 Mustangs were painted Emberglo (approximately 34,023 units).
This Mustang has had the same owners for the past 36 years, and they decided to sell as they just didn't drive it enough. It has not been driven in the rain in over 36 years and I have stored it winters for them for the past 10 or so years. There is no rust anywhere on the car and it runs and drives very well. The convertible top and rear window are in excellent condition and the power top functions flawlessly. Both the factory clock and tach function as designed. It needs a good detail which will be finished in the next 48 hours, and I will have new photos available this week.
Vehicle has a clear Indiana title that could exchange from individual to individual, or it could be run through adealership.
