Posts by 66tiger_old

    Well after much soul searching, I have decided to let a few cars go, too many projects, 5 kids, no time.


    I have a 66 K Coupe, vin # 6R07K206214, always a CA car, clear title in my name, registered thru May 06, then non-op'd. (Last registered in 1984) Vin # stamped in 3 locations on aprons. Drivers door data tag in place.


    Here are more specifics on the car.


    Body- 65A 2 door cope

    Date- 24E May 24

    Color- Z Sauterne Gold

    Trim - 26 Black Standard

    DSO -71 Los Angeles

    Axle- 5 3.50:1

    Trans- 6 C4 Automatic

    *The car came with a vinyl top. It had been previously removed, I would guess it was either white or black.


    Vin Stamped Motor

    Engine Assembly stamping of 6C4L March,4,1966 Inspector L


    Original Carb: Tag# C6ZF-F date code B5Jd , base stamped 6ZF


    Intake tag: has 289 C 66 9

    6-C 246-S


    Fomoco Distributor, C5OF-1217 can't read date code, it was put in backwards when heads were rebuilt, dual point dist.


    Original Balancer

    Hipo Alternator pulley


    H2o pump is C80E-d


    FOMOCO stamped 4 blade hipo fan


    Hipo exhaust manifolds


    Hipo steering box HCC-AX


    Original 9" rear


    Choke cable in place


    Drum brakes all around


    HISTORY OF CAR: (As relayed to me by the guy I bought it from) He bought it from guy that owned it in 70's who had sold it to his friend, then bought it back. When I bought it, it had CA tags, and registration had expired in 1984. Previous owner,(not the guy I bought it from, he bought it just to flip it)had dissasembled front body clip to start restoration. Sanded down fenders, hood, top of car. It was clean, bare metal when I got it so I lightly sanded it & hit it with primer since my shop can sometimes leak water in a hard rain, & loosly reassembled front clip.


    CONDITION OF MOTOR: Engine runs, currently has Edelbrock F4B intake on it. It had a holley on it (original intake & carb was in trunk) that didn't work, I put an old dirty A code carb on it to get it to run, it actualy runs pretty good, but the carb I put on it to get it to run is not in the best of shape (I'll be needing that one back). Idles with oil pressure in the middle, to the left of the middle on the temp guage. Car has 106K miles, from what I was told was original. Engine has some blow by, but runs smooth & cool. I wouldn't drive it though, without rebuilding it since the vin stamped block is so important. Radiator cools okay, but is corroded inside. Looks like

    original. I put another clean gas tank in it, original was gummed up, blew gas lines out.


    CONDITION OF TRANS: Original trans was replaced some time in cars life with an "A" servo C4 stamped with "AMCCO" on bottom of trans housing. When I got car running, it would just puke out fluid so I pulled it and put in another used"A" Servo C4 I had, it works okay, but leaks at the tranny pan seal. Note: I have an original "C" Servo 1966 C4 from a 66 KFB I sold a few years ago, that I will include for an additional cost. Front U joint on driveshaft is loose.


    CONDITION OF SUSPENSION: Previous owner started replacing suspension components, parts that have not been replaced are new in boxes and included. Brakes appear to be new & are tight.


    CONDITION OF INTERIOR: Previous owner replaced dash pad. All else is original, needs carpet. Seats starting to come apart at seams. Headliner is loose in back rear at corner. Door panels replaced. All guages & instruments, wiper, lights work. Heater & radio works.


    CONDITION OF BODY: Car was repainted original color somewhere along the line. Door jams & trunk are original paint. Looks like there was some body work to top front of hood at some point. Drivers headlight bucket is cracked. Small rust (1/4") at front of drives door, door handle was pushed in alittle, & there is a dent just behind drivers door in quarter panel (look to be damaged at same time). Pinhole rust in bottom of drivers quarter at front, not rusted thru, showing signs of surface rust. Passenger quarter has a small crease at wheel well opening. Rest of car is clean & rust free. Doesn't look like any major accidents, aprons & front frame are straight. Rear quarters look good from inside. Floors are perfect, with red oxide underneath.

    Carlite windshield, window & interior chrome in excellent condition (Car comes with new front & back gaskets)


    OVERALL CONDITION OF CAR: Car can be driven, however I didn't want to drive it down the road for fear of damaging vin stamped block. Tranny shifts fine. The correct "C" servo C4 I have (extra price) will need rebuilding. Rear seems to work fine, no noises. Front suspension works, needs rest of parts installed, steering box is nice and tight. Brakes stop car great, exhaust system needs replacing.

    Needs body work but not much, other than the rust described, the car is rust free. Interior is presentable, could probably get away with glueing hanging down headliner in corner at window, replacing carpet I cleaning it up. Overall a nice car to start with, kind of unique being a auto tranny car with vinly top.


    I would like to get $17k for car with "A" servo C4, and will sell correct "C" servo Hipo C4 to buyer for an additional $1k. Let me know if you are interested and I will forward pic's. My e-mail is cestes@bryers.com


    Thanks for looking,

    Chuck

    1965 Mustang GT HiPo K Code


    We have had this car in our showroom for about a year now, and it's time for someone else to enjoy it. This car needs no introductions. If you know anything about Mustangs, you know that this is one of the most desirable, and rarest Mustangs in the world. I take it out about twice a month on a dry day and cruise a little bit, just to keep everything moving. All the drivetrain numbers match, and everything works good. There are new gauges in the dash, but I have the originals in the trunk, as you can see in the picture. I also have an extra wiring harness, drive belt, heater core, car cover etc. The car has around 77k original miles on it, and drives like it too. Also in the pictures you can see the owners manual, a copy of the original window sticker, and vin tag. There is a small dent/ding on the hood right by the “R” in Ford, which any body shop could take out.


    The color is “poppy red” which is more or less orange, with white pony interior. The engine is a 289 c.i.d. with 271 horse power, with a four speed on the floor manual transmission, with front wheel disk brakes.


    The car runs great, and looks great. However it is a 41 year old car, and could use some restoration. More pictures are available, or if you need specific pictures taken, let me know.

The car has two new quarter panels and two new inner wheel panels. The driver side panel is just tacked on in place. It has a new fender on the passenger side and front splash pan. Under the hood and trunk is rust free. It does have a small amount of rust on the front floor board by the torque boxes. The car does not have original doors.

    Vehicle Description


    This is the best performance and best looking Mustang that you will find. It was purchased new in St. Petersburg, FL by the original owner in 1966. I am the fifth owner of this vehicle, which has been well taken care of, drives great, and has been meticulously maintained. The car has been painted its original color, Wimbledon White with blue pearl accenting the curves on the exterior. The interior is blue/white, and has been completely redone along with the carpet. The restoration of this car was professionally done four years ago. The body of this car is in excellent shape. It has a very small paint chip on the left rear, near bumper. There is absolutely no rust on the floors or body panels. The engine has been been rebuilt once, and it runs very strong, shifts well, and is extremely quick. The car does not have disc brakes, but it has power steering, new wood grain steering wheels, original style steel wheels. This 4 speed High Performance 289 is everything that you would want. it is immaculate inside and out. It has dual exhuast flow masters dual trumpets. The A/C does not work, but all new parts have been purchased, and are in boxes. They will go with the car. The trunk cargo area has been closed a little due to speakers installed. They can be easily removed. This car has all documentation from the first to the present owner. The car has a CD player, speakers, amp, and a security system located in the vehicle in a discreet location where it would not take away the originality of this show car, which was professionally completed for this former free agent professional basketball player for the Atlanta Hawks. This car is a real head turner. I was told by the previous owner that this car was featured in Mustang Monthly Magazine the 90's. I don't know if that is true, and I have not investigated it. Good luck to the highest bidder. I will be downloading additional pictures of the interior on tomorrow.

    In looking at the many additional photo's (sorry guys I couldn't download them so I could post them, but if you click on the link now you can see them before they disappear) this car appears to be a clean driver. Some aftermarket guages in the instrument cluster, the glove box door has been painted over without properly prepping it , car was painted without replacing rubber and you can see runs in spots, ect.

    If this listing was 6 months-1 yr. ago I would say that was pricey and $30k would have gotten you a more restored car. At today's values, this might be a fair price assuming it is numbers matching on the drivetrain. If it has the original drivetrain in good running condition, then putting another $10k into it for quality paint and detailing/replacement of interior would put you at $40k into it. Is a 65 K FB worth $40k detailed out with original drivetrain? Probably.


    It is a San Jose built car, so depending on how long it has been on the east coast, and having lived a sheltered life there, rust should be at a minimum. My first thought was $25k when I first saw the listing, but for someone who wants one and doesn't have one and wants to drive it right now, paying the extra $5k to insure they get the car is a good way to lock out any competition.

    Of course this is all my $.02 and we all have different opinions on car values.

    Bid to $25,100.00

    Buyer accepted offer to end listing early.


    E-Bay Listing: 65 K Fastback


    GENERAL: This is my personal car, not part of the dealer inventory. I list cars on ebay for Schaefer and Strohminger and am using the listing service for convenience. But this transaction is in no way associated with Schaefer and Strohminger.


    This is the real deal. A 1965 Mustang GT Fastback 2+2 equipped with the most desirable K code engine, 289 CID with 271 HP, and factory 4 speed transmission. This is one of the rarest and most collectible Mustangs available. It is extremely difficult to find any nice fastback, let alone one that is a true GT, and a true K code. We have owned her for several years and she has gotten little use. It is an older restoration, but the paint really shines and the interior is in good shape. I would rate it about 8.5 on a 10 point scale.


    EXTERIOR: The exterior is finished in poppy red, looks orange, and is in very good condition. The chrome is in very nice condition as are the rally wheels. There is some very minor pitting in the door handles and the rear tail light chrome. And this is a factory GT, enhanced by the fog lights in the grill, trumpet exhaust pipes through the rear valance, and GT rocker panel stripes.


    INTERIOR: The interior is trimmed in white and is also in very good condition. Not perfect, but very presentable. Aftermarket instruments have been added, but it would not be a big deal to replace with original, if desired. The mileage shown on the original odometer was less than 60k. I believe that this is the true mileage, but have no way to verify. The carpeting is new. The headliner, seats, and dash are in very good condition.


    DRIVETRAIN: Power is provided by the most desirable engine available, the original factory K code 289 CID with solid lifers. 271 HP. The engine is coupled with the correct 4 speed manual transmission and a 9 inch rear. This is the engine chosen by Carroll Shelby as the foundation for the 1965 and 1966 Shelby Mustangs and the original 289 Cobra. Awesome power. Sounds great through the dual trumpet exhaust.


    So if you are in the market for a true collectible, bid with confidence. We have set a very reasonable reserve, and will entertain all serious offers.


    If you have any questions please feel free to drop me an email or give a call. Contact Jim Bowersox for more information.
