This is believed to be a rare one of 11 car. There were only 3500
GT Mustangs built in 1965 and only 200 of them were convertibles.
"Honey Gold was only available on 5.5% of Mustangs that year,
making this convertible GT approximately 1 of 11 produced. Add in
the 46K original miles and this becomes a very rare investment
car.
This GT is in unbelievable condition, 46K original miles, rust free
with a great original condition interior. The engine is matching
numbers and is fully restored to factory specs @2015. It appears as
if the car had fresh paint then as well. The car starts, runs and
drives great. The power convertible top is also in excellent
condition. Factory options such as a rally pac, power top, tinted
glass and a factory console. The current owner of the car has only
added 100 miles since along with it being in a climate-controlled
environment since. Sale includes receipts of engine rebuild and
other misc work performed over the years.
Beginning with the full 1965 model year, Ford made available the GT
Equipment Group. Available only with the 225-hp and "Hi-Po" 271-hp
289-cu in engines, the package consisted of GT ornamentation, GT
stripes, fog lamps and grille bar and a dual exhaust system with
bright extensions through the rear valance panel. Additionally it
mandated the installation of the Special Handling Package (standard
on K-code cars), front disc brakes, and a five-dial gauge
arrangement in place of the horizontal speedometer. This gauge
arrangement consisted of a central circular speedometer flanked by
smaller circular auxiliary gauges; the Rally-Pac was still a valid
option against the GT package.
The "K" in K-code Mustangs refers to the engine: a durable,
lightweight "Hi-Po" 289-cu.in. V-8, featuring just enough special
equipment to help it make an official rating of 271 hp.
