You're looking at an interesting case were less is more. Most 1966 Ford Mustangs you see today have had the original six-cylinder replaced with a V8. Instead this one stays true to its humbler roots, and in the process, it's a much more interesting coupe. Plus, you get the complete control of a manual transmission, great color combo, and the comfort of air conditioning. Red and black Mustangs are great, but there's something distinguishing about Springtime Yellow. It's one of those '66 factory colors you love to see simply because it's always a standout. This one particularly grabs attention because the color was professionally applied only a few years ago, and so you get a classic appearance with a modern clearcoat luster. But more than just great paint, take a look at the overall execution. The bumpers have a mirror shine; the lenses are complete and clear; the factory hubcaps still look fantastic; and the iconic sheetmetal hangs exceptionally well even after a half-century on this earth. It tells you that this is a cared for classic that reminds us all of the days when Mustangs were instantly cherished because they were the dream car within the public's grasp.Inside the beige interior is a nice complement to the light yellow exterior. The bucket seats, door panels, carpeting, and dash all have the feeling of freshness that suggests a nice investment. Everything looks correct right down to the round five-gauge full readout panel. In fact, one of the only few items that's not from the '60s is the nice upgrade to an AM/FM/cassette stereo. Just like any good Mustang our favorite element seem to have plenty of brightwork as an integral part. That includes the three-spoke steering wheel, three-speed stick shift, and the vents on the updated R-134a air conditioning. All of these features combined make this classic cruiser comfortable enough for even the daily commute.Under the hood is where this coupe is going to get most of its attention. By bucking the trend of adding a V8, not too many people see the 200 cubic-inch inline six motors anymore. This T-code unit still likes to have fun, and you can tell just by the chrome air cleaner and valve cover in this tidy engine bay. These Sprint motors are quite durable, and you can dial in performance or economy on demand with the complete control of the three-speed manual transmission. While we like to think the GT and Shelby versions are where the Mustang grew its legend, it's really on coupes like this. The weekend warrior needed one package that provided reliable transport for the weekdays and something fun for the weekends. So this well-maintained motor that fires right up and adds a little spice to a morning commute is really what a classic Mustang is all about.So whether it reminds you of the exact car you had in high school, or you just like being different, this six-cylinder and brightly colored-Mustang is the perfect companion.
