This is a very simple and to the point article, just as the listing is. Buried in a garage and now for sale is a 1966 Ford Mustang GT. The mileage does not appear to be listed, but the car does have a clear title and the VIN is listed. It is located in Baldwinsville, New York. You can make an offer or buy it now for $3,000. So be sure to have a look at it here on eBay.
No pictures of the engine bay are present in the listing. The best information documented is that it has a V8 351 Windsor with a C4 automatic transmission. Photographic proof would be appreciated because that is something you don’t want to just assume. The quarter panels and roof have a lot of surface rust and there is no mention how or why.
Just as with the engine, no pictures of the interior are available. The listing does say that there are some spare parts available, including two spare doors and a deck lid. Too bad it wasn’t missing doors so we could see the interior. However, it is nice to see photos of the spare parts to provide evidence that they are included in the deal.
Due to the length of the auction, low asking price, lack of photos, and the fact that it has not sold yet, you can begin to draw your own conclusions that something might not be as it seems. Then again, if you determined, I am sure you are the one that can bring the 66 Mustang to your garage with confidence and a smile on your face.
What about the underside, no pics?
As a “C” code 289 2v originally equipped Mustang and no data plate info it’s highly unlikely this is a GT. The 351 is not the original motor and as sits might be worth a $1,000 if the rust isn’t too bad FWIW…
If I were a 66 mustang fan and lived nearby I would go take a look at floor pans and underneath real well I think . If I could live with it street,,/ strip machine for sure stroke that Windsor. At 3000 asking price worth taking a peek I think.
Paulbz3 is right. No c codes were equipped with the GT package only A codes and K’s. Not a real GT.
Looks like someone had in mind to build a street machine out of this ‘Stang…years ago, decades? Forget all about a numbers matching, restored to like new project here, better off as a ‘rodstang.
If it’s a 2 barrel it’s not a GT, in 67 you can have a 2 barrel GT but not in 65-66. Also can you imagine the cost to restore it right? One thing to remember, talking complete cars, it costs about the same to restore a regular Mustang as it does a Boss 302 or a Shelby. THINK
looks like a coupe? lol
