1965 Mustang Coupe Restoration

A complete restoration of an original 1965 Ford Mustang coupe with factory A-code 289 engine and Palomino Pony interior. Built entirely in the owner's garage, the car is returned to original specifications with professional-quality paint work, complete mechanical rebuilds, and careful restoration of every component. The restoration demonstrates exceptional craftsmanship while staying well under the original $15,000 budget.
