Description of 1965 Ford Mustang GT350 R Tribute

This 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback GT350 R tribute has the ideal mix of vintage and new. After all, it has that iconic fastback styling. But it's also been upgraded with a stronger chassis, sports suspension, a powerful fuel-injected V8, and a five-speed. And you get to enjoy this sleek sports machine from the comfort of an A/C interior.

This custom build starts with a very sought-after car. After all, the 2+2 fastback is one of the rarest and most valuable configurations for 1965. But then they turn the desirably up plenty of notches with this one's speedy style. The hood scoop, blacked-out grille, driving lights, hood pins, and larger side air ducts are all icons from the years Shelby was building these out of his Los Angeles factory. And that front bumper with room for extra air gives this a competition-style GT350 R look. Plus, the gray paint with black racing stripe package and crystal clear headlights give this a more modern feeling like the Eleanor cars. It all comes together on those Halibrand style wheels that have a coordinating cool gray look, a large 17-inch size to fit modern tires, and a timeless sense of performance flair.

There's plenty more speedy style on the inside. It has a competition-ready look with the deleted back seat and an expertly integrated roll cage. There's a Grant sports steering wheel on a tilt column, crisp new gauges, and a Hurst floor shifter. More than just the right performance-ready features, this has the solid look of a good investment with a smooth dash, nice carpeting, a good headliner, taut door panels, and the desirable deluxe "Pony" front bucket seats. There's even added comfort with a cup holder center console, power steering, and cold-blowing air conditioning.

The engine bay has the look a performance heart. It starts with Ford's mighty 5.0-liter V8. This is a fuel-injected powerhouse with a Spectre cold air intake, GT40P intake manifold, E303 roller cam, and shorty headers feeding the rumbling dual exhaust. It's even supported by the right pieces, like an aluminum radiator, Mallory distributor, and the battery is mounted in the trunk for better weight distribution. The five-speed manual transmission means you really get to harness this pony's full power. This is a strong-running package, and it also feels solid on the road. That's because you have a Rod and Custom Motorsports chassis, Mustang II-style front suspension, triangulated four-link rear, and Ridetech adjustable coilovers. There's also Wilwood four-wheel power disc brakes and BF Goodrich gForce Sport Comp tires for superior stopping.

This GT350 tribute has been given all the right investments to be a terrific powerful and sharp handling classic. So don't miss your chance, call today!
