This 1965 Ford Mustang 2+2 Fastback combines one of Ford's most desirable body styles with a serious collection of performance upgrades. Finished in bright red PPG paint, the Mustang retains its unmistakable first-generation styling while presenting with polished chrome bumpers, bright exterior trim, front grille-mounted road lamps and the sweeping roofline that made the 2+2 Fastback an American icon.

Power comes from a built 347ci small-block Ford equipped with aluminum cylinder heads and a D-1SC ProCharger centrifugal supercharger. The engine compartment is neatly presented with polished aluminum valve covers, an MSD ignition system, serpentine accessory drive, braided lines and a dedicated ProCharger intake system. An AFCO aluminum radiator supports the upgraded cooling demands, while ceramic-coated headers feed a dual exhaust system fitted with Flowmaster mufflers.

A Ford Toploader 4-speed manual transmission puts the driver directly in control through a Hurst shifter and blowproof bellhousing. Power is delivered to a Currie 9-inch Ford rear axle, while a Competition Engineering Slide-A-Link rear suspension helps manage the additional horsepower. Four-wheel disc brakes provide upgraded stopping capability to complement the car's performance.

The Mustang rides on polished American Racing Torque Thrust wheels wrapped in 245/50R16 performance tires with redline detailing. The combination gives the car a muscular, period-inspired stance without taking away from its classic fastback profile.

Inside, the black bucket-seat interior remains focused on the driver. Equipment includes a billet and leather-wrapped steering wheel, aluminum pedal covers, Hurst shifter, AutoMeter tachometer, boost/vacuum gauge and additional auxiliary instrumentation. A RetroSound stereo adds modern audio capability while maintaining a vintage appearance. The fold-down rear seat converts into an extended cargo platform, preserving one of the most distinctive and practical features of the Mustang 2+2.

Documentation accompanying the car includes ProCharger information, a 1964–1965 Mustang wiring diagram manual and additional records related to the performance equipment.

With its ProCharged 347, manual Toploader transmission, Currie rear axle and unmistakable fastback styling, this Mustang is built for the enthusiast who wants classic looks with considerably more performance than a stock example.
