Description of 1965 Ford Mustang GT

Up for sale is a true original Factory GT Mustang Fastback that has been fully restored. This GT came out of the Metuchen NJ plant on June 29th 1965 as a “Customer Order” Vintage Burgundy GT Fastback. This is documented by the buck tag that is on the opposite (passenger) side from the stamped VIN number. Metuchen is the only plant that placed buck tags on the Mustangs produced in 1965 and the buck tag has the “PI” code for Performance Image that signifies a Factory GT optioned Mustang. The buck tag also has the C/O (looks like a % symbol) on the upper left side of the tag which signifies “Customer Order” which means a special order Mustang built with the customer requested options. Buck Tag Data: http://kcode.net/bucktags.htm

This is a numbers matching date correct Mustang with all of the GT options to include; quick ratio steering larger diameter sway bar upgraded suspension single “cone style” master cylinder front disc brakes with 4 piston calipers dual exhaust with mounting brackets through the rear floor pan GT fog lamps with punched holes for the wiring harness correct fog lamp switch that turns on the fog lamps and rear running lights and trumpet exhaust.
