For Sale: 1966 Ford Mustang in Lithia Springs, Georgia

This 1966 Ford Mustang Convertible is in that sweet spot where it shines brightly, drives smoothly, and gives you those desirable extras, like A/C. So if you're looking for that well-restored classic American icon that's also ready to be driven, then you already know this is your drop-top.

Vintage Burgundy is the factory correct color. There's been a more recent investment to give it a quality respray and a metallic element. The result is a sunshine-friendly convertible that loves to radiate in the light. The brightwork contrasts the darker paint color, but it's shine complements it. You can tell there was a solid investment in bumpers, grille, and even details like the emblems. And speaking of tasteful contrasts, the white convertible top give this one a sophisticated look that will have you happily showing the car off with the roof in place. And everything from the styled steel wheels to the dual exhaust tips give this pony car the hint of sporty detail that keeps this an icon.

With the flip of a switch, the roof powers down to reveal a parchment and burgundy interior. So as much as we like the look of this with the roof in place, it gets even more attractive on top-down adventures. This was born with this well-coordinated color combo, but it was upgraded to the desirable deluxe "Pony" package during its restoration. Not only do you get the crisp looking seats with the embossed running horses, but also the door panels, carpeting, dash pad, and desirable center console all have the look of a quality investment, too. There are nice vintage details, like the correct-style trunk mat and the AM radio is there for display. And while the air conditioning system look like the correct 1966 unit, it's now blowing cold with modern compressor and R134a refrigerant.

Under the hood, Ford's famous 289 cubic-inch V8. Just like the rest of the car, they went for an accurate look with the bold blue bock, bright valve covers, and a matching air topper with callout. Even the details are accurate, like the washer refill bag and the clean hoses with FoMoCo stampings. This V8 fires up with the kind of confidence that you'll love in a classic meant for driving. The four-barrel carburetor inhales deeply, and the dual exhaust makes a sweet V8 tune. The undercarriage photos show more fresh investment in this car, and so this has a solid feeling out on the road. Plus, you have a smooth three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and power brakes w/upgraded front discs.

It's great to find a first-gen Mustang convertible that's got the right style and substance already put together. So if you want the complete package, don't let this pony car slip away. Call today!!!
