The seller offers for sale this Ford Mustang Cabriolet from 1965, equipped with a 6-cylinder petrol engine and an automatic transmission. The car has undergone restoration work, though the seller notes that certain elements deserve revision. The engine starts without difficulty, runs without smoke or irregular noises, and offers reliable performance. The gearbox shows shifting issues despite running quietly. According to the seller, the body and exterior paint are recent, while the interior presents a tidy appearance with upholstery in nice condition. Some chrome parts require replacement, and dashboard hardware would benefit from attention. The car has no accident history, though rust is present inside the trunk and convertible top area. Lighting and signalling equipment function correctly, and the car holds a valid technical inspection.
The Ford Mustang debuted in 1964 and quickly became an icon of American automotive culture. Its long bonnet, compact proportions, and accessible performance defined the “pony car” segment. The convertible version remains especially appreciated for its relaxed driving character and timeless appeal. Early six-cylinder models offer an easygoing ride and approachable maintenance, making them popular among classic-car enthusiasts seeking style and open-top cruising. Today, first-generation Mustangs enjoy strong collector interest due to their heritage, attractive design, and broad parts availability. This 1965 example offers a classic foundation for enjoyment or further refinement.
