The seller offers for sale a Ford Mustang Fastback GT350 Tribute from 1965. This fastback is powered by a 4.7 liter V8 petrol engine and is paired with a manual Top Loader four-speed gearbox, as used in the original Shelby models. Around the year 2000, the car was restored in detail, with a photo report available documenting the work carried out. The engine is a correct K-code 289 High Performance V8, rebuilt approximately 22,000 miles ago and equipped with period-correct features such as dual-point ignition and Shelby-style valve covers. The body presents nicely in paint applied in the Netherlands, with good panel fit and only minor visible imperfections near the rear fenders. The interior features a well-kept artificial leather upholstery, with all gauges and switches functioning as intended. The engine runs well and the gearbox shifts smoothly. Technical upgrades include power steering, front disc brakes, a limited slip rear axle, and suspension components in line with the GT350 specification.
The Ford Mustang Fastback is one of the most iconic American performance cars of the 1960s. Introduced as part of the first Mustang generation, the fastback body style combined aggressive looks with improved aerodynamics. The GT350, developed by Carroll Shelby, elevated the Mustang into a serious performance machine, both on road and track. Tribute builds like this one allow enthusiasts to experience the character and mechanical layout of the original GT350 while benefiting from careful restoration work. Today, well-executed GT350 Tributes are appreciated for their driving experience, classic V8 sound, and strong visual presence, making them a popular choice among collectors and enthusiasts alike.
