Original Sheetmetal, 35k Original Miles, California Black Plate Car
For sale is a stunning 1965 Mustang Fastback 2+2, an original black plate California car with a well-documented history of family ownership in California until 2005, followed by time in Texas, and eventually brought to the Northeast five years ago. This is a true 34,000 original mile example that has been preserved and restored with exceptional care. The first restoration was completed in 2005 at 33,169 miles, with a second, more recent mechanical restoration completed in 2019 to ensure continued reliability and performance.
Finished in its factory-correct Wimbledon White over a blue vinyl interior, this Fastback is powered by the original 289 V8 engine, mated to a smooth-shifting C4 automatic transmission and a 2.80:1 rear axle ratio—ideal for relaxed highway cruising with plenty of power on tap. Driving upgrades include GT350-spec four-piston front disc brakes, power steering, and power brakes, making it a pleasure to drive both around town and on the open road. GT-style fog lights, dual GT exhaust, and a rally pack further enhance its presence and performance. The car sits on factory 14-inch wheels wrapped in correct dual redline tires, completing the period look.
Included in the sale are the original California black license plates, factory owner's manual, original registration documents, a folder of receipts, and extensive documentation covering the car's history. Before and after photos of the 2005 restoration are also included, showcasing the care and detail put into returning this Fastback to its original glory. This is a rare opportunity to own a low-mile, California-born 1965 Mustang Fastback with verified provenance, tasteful period upgrades, and turn-key drivability.
