The first-generation Ford Mustang, launched in April 1964, single-handedly created the "pony car" segment, a class of accessible, stylish, and performance-oriented coupes designed to appeal to a younger generation. Ford projected 100,000 sales in its first year, but the Mustang shattered expectations, selling over a million units within two years. The 1966 model year, in particular, was the best-selling of the original generation, seeing subtle styling refinements and the introduction of the GT package, which added a more potent engine, upgraded suspension, disc brakes, and distinctive badging, solidifying the Mustang's performance credentials and cementing its place as an American icon. This particular 1966 Ford Mustang GT Tribute coupe, a fresh estate find from Texarkana, Arkansas, embodies the spirit of that legendary era. Having undergone a meticulous restoration between 2018 and 2020, this Southern car presents in exceptional condition, ready to turn heads and deliver a truly engaging driving experience. Under the hood lies a robust 289 cubic-inch V8 engine, paired with a smooth automatic transmission, ensuring both spirited performance and effortless cruising. Showing a remarkably low 29,842 miles, this GT Tribute has been carefully maintained, reflecting the quality of its recent refurbishment. This is an opportunity to acquire a beautifully executed homage to one of America's most beloved automotive legends.
