The documented history of this car shows it was purchased in New York City on October 20, 965 by a US serviceman and shipped to his duty station in Germany. It was serviced by Willy Schonhofen Ford 4 times before being shipped back to Tampa, lorida in the Spring of 1967. At that time it had 30,709 miles on the odometer. The original owner's manual notes service over the next 10 years at which time the odometer read 138,500 miles. At some point after that the car was purchased by an automobile dealer in Atlanta, A. According to the his widow, e had a private collection of Mustangs. This car has a total of 152,000 miles on the odometer. In 1988 it was parked outside at the Atlanta, A home of the dealer where I recently purchased it along with two other 1966 Mustang convertibles.
The car has Export upper shock tower mounts. These and the Export brace were used by Shelby on the 1965 & 1966 GT350.
THIS CAR HAS NEVER BEEN MOLESTED OR RESTORED. WHAT YOU SEE WAS THERE WHEN THE CAR WAS BUILT IN SEPTEMBER OF 1965. IT IS TRULY A VERY RARE AND HIGHLY RESTORABLE MUSTANG.
The car needs torque boxes, ide rails, loor pans and a driver's door skin. I think the body panels can all be repaired and do not need to be replaced. The car is original except for the repaint and a Sear add-on AC unit. The only major parts missing are hub caps, ar jack, pare tire, ir cleaner and rear bottom seat. The motor is a C Code 289 V8 2V with the original motor tag still on it. The car comes with both T5 fender badges, xport brace, eavy duty suspension and front wheel disc brakes. It also has a manual steering 3 speed manual transmission and a manual convertible top. This car will need a total restoration due to the fact that it sat outside and was uncovered for 28 years.
The Mustang is located 50 miles NW of Atlanta, A
