Basic information and History

The Ford Mustang is the model that coined the term "pony car", i.e. long hood and short rear. The model is today in its seventh generation, the model that Ford has produced for the longest time. It became so popular that competitors such as Chevrolet, Pontiac, AMC, Dodge and others built their own interpretation of the pony car. The 1965 model year Ford Mustang was the first car ever to win the award "Tiffany Gold medal for excellence in American design". The model was sold in over 121,000 copies in the first year and clearly shows how popular the car type was. The car came in either a hardtop, cab or fastback model.This Swedish-sold 1965 Mustang cab comes with a 289cui V8 of approx. 200hp/400nm connected to a 4-speed manual box. The car has had 8 previous owners according to the Transport Board and the current owner bought the car for his wedding. As the car is sold in Sweden, there is a good chance that it was brought home by Ford Kindwalls, who sold many Mustangs.
