GarageScout Take

This 1965 Mustang fastback has been extensively modified with a strong 347 stroker and modern drivetrain components that prioritize performance and reliability.

Strengths

Comprehensive engine upgrade including forged internals and Dart heads
Five-speed manual transmission paired with a robust Currie 9" rear end and Truetrac differential
Includes upgraded suspension and brakes, along with an improved cooling system
Original A-code fastback body style with documented chassis

Watch For

Refurbishment and refinishing occurred in late 1990s and mid-2000s, not a recent full restoration
Extensive modifications mean this is not an original factory-spec car
