The Ford Mustang forever changed the American automotive landscape when it debuted in April of 1964, creating the "pony car" segment and becoming an instant cultural icon. By 1966, the Mustang had firmly established itself as one of the most desirable cars on the road, combining sporty styling, V8 performance, and open-air driving enjoyment in a package that appealed to enthusiasts of all ages. Offered here is a beautifully restored 1966 Ford Mustang Convertible finished in its factory-correct Candy Apple Red over a striking Red Luxury Interior, complemented by a crisp white convertible top. Presenting with 66,000 miles shown on the odometer, this first-generation Mustang is an outstanding example of one of America's most beloved classics.
Built at Ford's Metuchen, New Jersey assembly plant on January 11, 1966, this Mustang was originally delivered to the Richmond, Virginia sales district. The VIN and data plate confirm this to be a genuine C-code car, equipped from the factory with Ford's dependable 289 cubic-inch V8 producing 200 horsepower through a two-barrel carburetor. Backing the V8 is the highly desirable C4 automatic transmission, while a 2.80:1 rear axle provides smooth cruising characteristics, making this Mustang equally enjoyable around town or on weekend drives.
The exterior restoration highlights the timeless styling that made the first-generation Mustang an icon. The Candy Apple Red finish shines beautifully, accentuating the Mustang's sculpted body lines, chrome trim, and signature front grille. The white power convertible top provides a striking contrast and completes the car's classic appearance whether raised or folded neatly behind the rear seat. Chrome bumpers, bright trim, and factory-style wheels further reinforce the authentic presentation of this meticulously maintained convertible.
Inside, the optional Luxury Red Interior elevates the driving experience with upgraded trim, refined appointments, and classic Mustang styling. The rich red upholstery pairs perfectly with the exterior finish, creating a cohesive and elegant cabin that feels both sporty and upscale. The clean dashboard, factory instrumentation, and comfortable bucket seats transport the driver back to the golden era of American motoring, while the automatic transmission makes this Mustang effortless to enjoy whether cruising through town or heading to a local car show.
As one of the most recognizable and collectible American classics ever built, this 1966 Ford Mustang Convertible offers the ideal combination of proven V8 performance, timeless styling, and open-air enjoyment. Beautifully restored, finished in one of Ford's most desirable color combinations, and equipped with its factory C-code 289 V8 and C4 automatic transmission, this Mustang is ready to be enjoyed by its next caretaker. Whether added to an established collection or purchased as a first classic car, this iconic convertible represents an exceptional opportunity to own a true piece of automotive history.

Garage Kept Motors, LLC specializes in classic and specialty online auto sales.
For our consignors, we are the only auto brokers that offer a Transparent Sale Disclosure. This means, when a car sells, we provide an exact copy of the Bill of Sale. We do this so our clients know exactly who bought their car, where it went, and most importantly how much we sold it for. No funny business.
For our buyers, our vehicles are listed on the Internet, with over 100 photos, including undercarriage pictures, and walk-around videos of the vehicles running plus a narrative-style write-up of the cars history and features. Our international exposure allows us to sell cars across the globe, and we sell a majority of them out of state and overseas. We deliver honesty and consistency in our photos and descriptions, a “no surprise” approach, so buyers, both near and far, can invest with confidence sight unseen. We are not a gallery. Vehicles can be seen locally by appointment as potential buyers are given our undivided attention.
