National Award Winning Mustang 289 K Code V8 4 Speed

When it comes to universal appeal, few American cars bring it quite like the Ford Mustang. While a lot of its competitors placed an emphasis on speed, style, or some other singular piece of the puzzle, the Mustang did its best to be everything to everyone. As the infamous Ford brand celebrates its 50th anniversary, 2014 has been a fantastic year to invest in a legendary Stang. Over the past few weeks we've seen numerous Mustangs sell here at RK Motors Charlotte as quickly as they arrived. And this award winning '65 Mustang is poised to join the long list of Stang sales in 2014. If you are in the market for an investment grade Pony car that will not disappoint, then it doesn't get much better than this documented K-code Mustang that appears as if it just rolled out of the Dearborn assembly plant. The product of a complete nut and bolt rotisserie restoration in 2011, its solid body was primed to a smooth canvas for a correct and glossy coat of Rangoon Red. We aren't the only ones who think this is one of the nicest '65 fastbacks on the planet. In 2011, MCA gave the car a Gold award. It racked up First Junior and First Senior awards from the Antique Automobile Club of America that same year. And it has since been invited to multiple concours events. Pop the solid steel hood and you'll find a period correct K-code 289 cubic inch Ford V8 that wears a correct C5AE-6015-E casting number. Just because it displaces only 289 cubic inches, don't make the mistake of dismissing the potent V8 under the hood. Shelby used this engine in the early GT350s and dominated on the racetracks, and the 271 horsepower K-code 289 is only a step below the 306 horsepower race Shelbys. Behind the hot 289, the original numbers matching Toploader 4-speed manual transmission which wears a matching VIN, turns the original tried and true Ford 9-inch rear axle equipped with 3.50 gears.
