1966 Ford Mustang Convertible Restored RESTOMOD w/ 5.0 Ford Racing Crate motor

I am helping to sell this car for my father. He is a charter member of the Mustang Club of America and Mustangs have always been a passion of his. He has had numerous award winning early Mustangs but always wanted a RESTOMOD classic Mustang with modern components. This car was his dream car and he had it professionally built by highly respected hot rod builder Jimmy Kennedy out of Marietta, Ga. using absolutely the BEST parts available. I will try to detail these but there are literally too many to list.
This is a 1966 Ford Mustang that was an ultra clean original "C" code car with absolutely no rust and a beautiful straight body. Then the fun started:
- A Brand new Ford Racing 5.0 Liter Crate engine with 345 HP, 310 FT/LB Torque, 9.0:1 Compression ratio and Ford racing H/P Roller Cam was dropped in. This car has a beautiful sound and engine lope and it is a rocket- Brand new Ford Automatic Overdrive (AOD) transmission plus additional cross member support

This car has the superior handling, power, comfort, and reliability of a new car in a meticulously restored vintage original 1966 Mustang Convertible body. The car has less than 1000 miles on it since completed. Runs and drives like a new car. Tracks dead straight with sports car tight steering.
Car is as clean underside as is the top. Engine bay was fully cleaned, primed and painted a satin black prior to the crate motor being installed. The body of the car was primed and prepped and block sanded multiple times before the CLASSIC Red acrylic enamel paint was applied. The color is a beautiful TRUE pure red. All exterior trim, lights, handles, weatherstrips, and bumpers have been replaced with new better quality or "concours" parts. American Racing Torq Thrust wheels are wrapped in low profile performance Kumho 215 40R17 in front and 235 45R17's in the back.
A Nu-Relics power window kit compliments the factory power convertible top now covered in modern black Mercedes Hartz cloth. DynaMat was installed throughout the car for heat absorption and sound deadening. The custom "Recaro" type sport seats are incredibly comfortable and adjustable. These werecustomcovered to match the car including the matching rear seats andcustom console. Teak TonyBrand SHELBY steering wheel is mounted on top of an IDIDIT chrome steering column.
Shelby rear tail light conversion was done but the slick thing is this is an overlay and the original smaller square mustang taillight openings are intact and you could convert back to original lights very easily (but it wouldn't look as cool!)
This car runs, drives, sits, looks, and sounds incredible. The paint, fit, finish, and attention to detail are show quality. The paint and finish under the hood, under the trunk, the door jambs, etc are all as nice as the exterior. It is an amazing car to drive and is a show stopper. The car was built with an extremely high attention to detail. My father had a Top 10 International Show CarAssociation(ISCA) car in the 60's. He then went to street rodding with an all steel 32 Ford Roadster that has been featured in numerous magazines and he still owns this car today along with his Mustangs ('65fastback, '66 GT Convertible). This car was done right and for him personally so no expense was spared. I have pages of very detailed records and receipts of the car's build that will come with the car.
The car is located in the North Atlanta area. Glad to meet you and show you the carpersonally. Can deliver within 100 miles if needed. You can also fly in and drive it home. Any other shipping or logistics is the buyer's responsibility but will be glad to assist in this. Car has a clean andclear title. Glad to answer any questions of supply additional pictures on request.
