Description of 1965 Ford Mustang Coupe

I have a 1965 Mustang Coupe, a 302 .30 over couple with a smooth shifting 5-speed. The car barely has any surface rust, shes solid all the way around, you'll have to hop under her to believe it.
The full restoration was done in 2009, including the full motor build, transmission swap, body kit install, paint, suspension, and interior. Overall, this vehicle is nearly one of a kind from the build. She runs flawlessly, shifts smooth, rides light, sits low, and looks mean. You catch a lot of attention in this car, everywhere from head turns, to phone videos. I've taken a couple of clips of her idling and driving so you can see how she sounds and how she handles. The driving video was held by a phone, so excuse the shaking:
Idle - https://youtu.be/0h-i2R-u-Sw
Driving - https://youtu.be/zdy-FYgUeuc
I'm selling because it was a fixer upper and a cruiser, now it's time to move onto other vehicles and free up some fun for others.
