Ever wanted to be the proud owner of a piece of Americana?
Here's your chance!
This is the iconic American muscle car - a 1965 Mustang GT convertible in Poppy Red. Introduced in April 1965, he Mustang GT was only made for 4 months before the model year changed. VERY limited production, nd very few survivors 50 years later. Equipped like this one (a Poppy Red convertible with 4-speed manual transmission), here is only a very small number of survivors (by many estimates, 00-200) out there, nd they seldom hit the market. This car turns heads and draws ooohhhhs and aaaahhhhs wherever she goes!

Here's what you get:
Every factory GT-identifier characteristic is here:
This is a pristine, rue-to-its-origin specimen of a hard-to-find American classic. The ONLY "modernizations":
This vehicle has always been winter garaged and never driven in the rain. Professionally restored 10 years ago - ABSOLUTELY NO RUST OR BONDO. Engine rebuilt in 2012 - 170psi compression in all 8 cylinders. ABSOLUTELY NO FLUID LEAKS ANYWHERE.
Conservatively appraised at and insured for $50k. Don't let let this one get away - opportunity won't knock twice!
NOTE: This car is for sale locally - I reserve the right to end this auction early in the event that a local sale is completed before the scheduled close of bidding.
