SUMMARY

DESCRIPTION
- This fabulous '66 289 was built in Dearborn and first registered in Corinth, Mississippi later that year
- Powered by a 289ci (4727cc) 200bhp V8 and a 3-speed auto box (reconditioned)
- It finished its days in the US in Jackson, Tennessee registered as 66 PONY before being imported to the UK in 2015
- Treated to a full 'nut&bolt' rotisserie restoration and refinished in its original colour of Emberglow
- Stunning new Emberglow and Parchment 'Pony' interior. Fitted with the optional 'Rally-Pac', now very rare
- Still fitted with its original 8-track stereo (working) and an upgraded 4 x 100-watt stereo discreetly installed
- With our vendor and his family since 2016 and subject to a full mechanical £15,000 facelift from the number 1 Mustang workshop in the UK during 2017
- This work included new electrics, power brakes, discs, power steering, upgraded suspension, Holley carburettor, A/C rebuild, differential, wheel bearings, water pump, alternator, voltage box etc.
- Supplied with a fresh MOT (September 2022), a photographic record of the original restoration, receipts for the work in 2017 and its original Bill of Sale from St Louis ($3,745)
- In a very rare colour with gleaming paintwork, a fabulous interior and sorted mechanicals, this striking '66 Mustang seems very sensibly guided
