Description of 1966 Ford Mustang

.
This is an original California Black Plate car: Genuine, factory original 1966 Mustang GT A-code 289ci V8- 225hp coupe with the original door tag! Meticulously restored to original, this car is finished in Ivy Green Metallic complemented by her Black Crinkle Vinyl and Black Rosette Vinyl, Standard Interior. According to In Search of Mustangs (the definitive registry of vintage Mustangs), of the approximately 65,000 surviving Mustangs listed in the registry, this car is one of just 1081 surviving 289 A-code coupes that are recorded in the registry. Based on consensus estimates of 15% GT production, this car is one of just 162 surviving factory-produced 1966 GT coupes.
It comes finished in code correct fresh Ivy Green Metallic paint job by California West Coast Paint and Body Shop in Los Angeles, CA in December 2016. Great pains were taken to bring this car back to its original state with the help of Paul Crosswhite, the Mustang M.D in Castaic, CA (some know him as the Mustang Ranch...
