ifixit8 Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 A 1965 Ford Mustang GT. this thing is insane. It has many new parts. And we got it for a great price $5,500. so the list of goodies is......... Built up motor 1. Cleveland heads 2. Chevy 202 valves 3. Edelbrock intake 4. holley 4-barrel carb, not sure what cfm, but has electric choke ;) as for the rest: all new chrome, new floor with subframe connectors, all new interior, new tires, Taylor and mallory ignition, and the auto c-4 trans. I think that's it for now. On to the pics Front view Back seats Interior front shot Motor back view So this is the reason why I am selling my Truck and Bike. I figured that this would help bring our relationship closer since this is going to be our car to work on. Turns out that it is her dream car. go figure. ;) lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
69CamaroSS Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 nice ride. sorry but i have to say i hate the blue interior. our 99 tracer has a blue interior like that and it drives me insane! but besides that your new ride looks like a beast(i mean that in a good way) good find Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pantera1973 Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Congratulations! I restore classic Mustangs so if you have any questions don't hesitate to ask. The engine you have doesn't have Cleveland heads on it, more than likely they are off of a 351 Windsor. It's quite easy to tell them apart, but the easiest way are the valve cover hold down bolts. A 260,289,302 (Except Boss 302) and 351W have only 6 valve cover bolts per side, a 351C, Boss 302, 351M and 400M have 8 per side. Chevy 2.02 valves are a common modification to 351W heads which come with 1.78" valves, but would actually be a downgrade for 351C heads which have a 2.19" intake valve for the 4 barrel heads and a 2.04" valve for 2 barrel carb heads. Have fun restoring her. :USAflag: 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zjrog Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 I don't see anything suggesting GT... My mom got fooled with some non-original GT stripes on a '66 25 years ago. At least it had a 4bbl and disk brakes. She was upset when I pointed it out to her... But we upgraded it with the Monte Carlo bar, and exhaust, bigger 4bbl and some better springs. Might not have been a GT, but at least it ran like one. For the most part. I've had 2 65s, a 67 and a 72. I'd really like that 72 back... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOrnbrod Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 I don't see anything suggesting GT... Me either. It's not. There are several sites to decode the VIN............ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
