Offered here is a two-car Mustang project package composed of a red 1965 Ford Mustang coupe and a gold 1967 Ford Mustang coupe. The seller purchased both cars about four years ago with the idea of them being a father-and-son project, but life got busy, and the plan never came together as intended. Rather than letting them sit indefinitely, both Mustangs are now being offered together as a great opportunity for the next owner to enjoy, restore, or build to their own taste. The package is being offered here as a Barn Finds Auction, and the pair is located in Yonkers, New York.
The 1965 Mustang is the stronger driver of the pair and is powered by a 289 V8. The seller reports that it runs and drives well and has good power. During current ownership, the red coupe received new tires, spark plugs and wires, a tune-up, ignition coil, and headlamps. The car presents as a usable classic that could be enjoyed while improvements are made, though the seller notes that it would benefit from paint and general TLC. The red exterior shows well from a few feet away, but the photos show typical cosmetic aging, paint imperfections, and areas that would need attention if the next owner wanted to take the car to the next level.
Inside, the 1965 features a black interior with bucket seats, console, wood-style steering wheel, and Mustang floor mats. The upholstery and trim appear presentable for a driver-quality car, with the kind of wear one would expect from an older restoration or maintained survivor-style Mustang. The engine bay is driver-grade and appears to have been kept functional rather than detailed for show. For someone looking for a first-generation Mustang with a V8 that can be improved over time, this car looks like the more immediately usable half of the package.
The second car is a 1967 Mustang coupe finished in gold with a red interior. This car is powered by Ford’s 200 cubic-inch inline-six, paired with an automatic transmission. The seller reports that it has also received recent tune-up work, including spark plugs, wires, ignition coil, and points. Some bodywork has been started, and the car is described as needing additional TLC and paint. The photos show a mostly complete coupe with trim, glass, interior, and mechanical components present, making it a solid candidate for a straightforward restoration, driver build, or restomod project.
The 1967’s gold exterior shows areas of primer, bodywork, sanding, and cosmetic wear, so bidders should view it as a project rather than a finished car. The red interior is one of the car’s more appealing features, with bucket seats, rear seat, door panels, dash, console area, and gauges all giving the car a complete and inviting appearance. The trunk, engine bay, and included parts are shown in the gallery, and the car appears to come with several removed or spare trim pieces and small parts.
Together, these two Mustangs offer several possible paths. The 1965 V8 coupe could be enjoyed as a running, driving classic as cosmetic work is addressed over time, while the 1967 six-cylinder coupe could be restored closer to original or used as the basis for a tasteful retro build. For a Mustang enthusiast, father-and-son team, or hobbyist looking for a pair of first-generation coupes, this package offers both immediate enjoyment and long-term project potential.
The seller had one of our professional photographers come take all the photos, so we have lots of photos showing the exteriors, interiors, engine bays, trunk areas, trim, wheels, and detail shots of both cars. Bidders are encouraged to review the full gallery closely and ask questions prior to bidding. Both cars are being sold as projects with room for improvement, but the combination of a running V8 1965 Mustang and a mostly complete 1967 coupe makes this an appealing opportunity for anyone who has been waiting for the right Mustang project.
