Ford Mustang is one of the most popular models in the restoration business, and models that come in a decent shape typically sell like hotcakes.
The ’66 convertible that someone has recently posted online is likely to catch the attention of many restoration professionals, as it comes in a very intriguing condition despite 20 years in hiding.
Spending two decades away in the same place can’t be good news. Not for a piece of metal, at least, as it’s typically just a matter of time until the rust starts taking its toll.
As anyone can tell with just a few clicks on the photos in the gallery, the convertible has already received a series of fixes. It comes with a new gas tank, a rebuilt carburetor, new tires, and other parts that got it ready for the road.
The 2-barrel sibling developed 200 horsepower, whereas the six-cylinder was, well, lazy. It produced just 120 horsepower but was still a good choice for anyone looking for a fancy supermarket companion.
The other good news concerns the selling price. The Mustang was posted on eBay as part of a no-reserve auction. In other words, the top bidder will take the car home when the digital fight comes to an end in approximately nine days.
The auction started by seller 2hipgottago has already received eight bids, and the highest right now is $5,300. Most likely, the top bid will increase as we approach the end of the auction, especially because this is a rare find that’s unlikely to escape unnoticed.
