Offered for sale is this beautifully restored 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback 2+2, professionally finished as a Shelby GT350 Tribute while retaining its original, numbers-matching C-Code 289 V8 engine. This classic Mustang has been restored to a very high standard and combines authentic styling with tasteful performance upgrades, making it an exceptional collector car that is equally enjoyable to drive.
The original 289 V8 has been freshly rebuilt and has less than 200 miles since completion. The engine has been bored .030 over and fitted with a new crank assembly, Lunati hydraulic camshaft (284/488), Edelbrock aluminum intake manifold, Edelbrock 600 CFM 4-barrel carburetor, electronic ignition, performance clutch, headers, and Mac free-flow mufflers with trumpet-style exhaust tips. The result is an estimated 300+ horsepower with a deep, aggressive exhaust note.
The suspension and braking systems have also been completely upgraded with Scott Drake front suspension components, new shocks and springs, and front four-piston disc brakes, providing significantly improved handling and stopping power while maintaining the classic driving experience.
The body restoration includes:
New rear quarter panels
New front fenders
New floor pans
New front frame rails
New radiator support
New fuel tank and sending unit
New weather stripping
Complete new wiring harness
Fresh high-gloss Flame Red paint with black GT350 over-the-top stripes and side stripes
Additional Shelby-inspired upgrades include:
GT350 front valance
Eleanor-style rear deck lid spoiler
Cobra valve covers and air cleaner
15-inch Magnum 500 wheels
BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires
The interior has been completely refreshed and features:
New seat upholstery
New carpeting and padding
New headliner and sun visors
New dash pad
New door panels and handles
New retractable front seat belts
New gauge cluster with tachometer
Original center console in excellent condition
Original steering wheel
Fold-down rear seat
Mechanically, the car is exceptionally strong. The freshly rebuilt engine starts easily, runs smoothly, and delivers outstanding performance through the period-correct Hurst 4-speed shifter. The vehicle retains its original radiator and original glass, with only minor age-related imperfections on a few windows.
This Mustang is a beautifully executed restoration that captures the unmistakable appearance of the legendary Shelby GT350 while preserving the integrity of its original numbers-matching drivetrain. Whether you’re looking for a weekend cruiser, a show-quality classic, or an investment-grade American muscle car, this Fastback is ready to impress.
