Arguably, cruising down the highway from behind the wheel of a first-generation Pony Car may just be one of the best things life has to offer. This 1966 Ford Mustang Coupe comes to us fully repainted in its original Candy Apple Red. With its Shelby-style grille, and GT-style rear valance, it showcases its straight lines and aggressive stance in a cool, collected way from every angle.
Inside, we find an original-looking black vinyl interior. A drop-in center console, complete with dual cupholders, separates a pair of bucket seats, while a Grant three-spoke wood-rimmed wheel showcases a Mustang center cap, positioned just ahead of an Auto Meter 8,000-rpm column-mounted tachometer and a five-pod Classic Instruments Velocity gauge cluster featuring a big, center-mounted 160 mph speedometer. An upgraded custom Bluetooth-enabled USB AutoSound head unit sends power through Kenwood kick panel and rear speakers.
Under its steel hood, we find a 289-cubic-inch overhead-valve V-8 engine. Outfitted with a single four-barrel Ford carburetor, aluminum radiator, electric cooling fan, chrome alternator, Flame Thrower ignition coil, and FlowMaster dual exhaust, this small block reminds anyone within earshot how a classic Pony Car should sound. Power is routed through a tried-and-true T10 four-speed manual transmission before heading out to the solid-axle 8-inch rear end.
