This 1965 Ford Mustang is a well-preserved, mostly original example that has been carefully maintained and upgraded for reliability, with no signs of corrosion. It remains largely stock, aside from an updated braking system and a few thoughtful enhancements for drivability. The current owner—believed to be the third—has documented a detailed service history, reflecting both pride of ownership and a commitment to keeping the car in top condition.

Originally assembled in San Jose, California, this A-code Mustang Hardtop is powered by a 225hp 289ci 4-barrel V8 and shows just 60,900 miles on the odometer. Prior to the current owner’s purchase, the engine was rebuilt, and upgrades were made to include front power disc brakes, modern headlights, and new interior upholstery. All electrical components are in working order, including lights, horn, radio, and interior illumination.

Over the past few years, the car has undergone an extensive list of maintenance and improvements, most of which were completed or verified by OC Cars in Lake Forest—a shop specializing in vintage Mustangs. Major updates include transmission work, full suspension replacement, new carburetor, ignition components, power steering system overhaul, and more. A complete breakdown by date is available and shows the care taken to ensure both reliability and safety.

The Mustang is currently registered in California, has a clean California title, and is exempt from smog testing. It’s a strong, dependable driver with a solid platform and extensive documentation—ready to enjoy on the road or as a collectible with ongoing potential.
