A swing of the doors and what's inside is eye popping! Shining like the showroom, the front buckets and rear bench welcome you to get in and drive into new style. That style being low back bomber styled buckets with red bolsters and white inserts. The white utilizes some tuck and roll with smooth edges. Chromed trimmings run up the center of the edges and hide the hinges for the folding backs to access the rear seating. On the hump is a new console also in matching red with a high deep glovebox/armrest and dual cup holders. In front of this, also residing on the hump is the shift lever. Slipping past the 3 point seat belts I climbed in the back onto a nice bench that matches the front seats perfectly and all in excellent condition. Speaking of which, on front is the factory dash also upgraded from the original design and harkening back to the 1964.5 models still with dual round instruments, but now with the addition of 3 more rounds in smaller format just above and between the larger rounds. Black vinyl with a bit of texture is the background and then it changes to white steel, which goes back and forth between the white and red for that horizontal strip which runs entirely across the dash in front. I note a new AM/FM/CD player and a Grant GT rally padded steering wheel replacing the original. Beautiful red carpeting covers the floors and has badged mustang stitched carpeted floor mats protecting it. The dash top is pristine with no cracks and above a tight deep red headliner floats above all this finery, which is literally all new!
The standard 200ci inline 6 cylinder is in an original engine bay which is clean and presents with a nice patina, all in blue painted glory. A single 1-barrel carburetor and a 3 speed manual transmission from the factory is attached. On the back, a Ford 7.25 rear pumpkin resides. New wiring and hoses and a new clutch and pressure plate with less than 3800 miles is now in.
