The Ford Mustang Fastback, introduced in 1965, was an instant icon, cementing its place as the definitive American pony car. While the notchback coupe launched the phenomenon, the sleek, sporting Fastback body style truly captured the imagination of enthusiasts, particularly when Carroll Shelby got his hands on it. The GT350, a collaboration between Ford and Shelby American, transformed the already popular Mustang into a true track weapon. Stripped down, tuned up, and homologated for SCCA racing, the 1965 GT350, with its distinctive Wimbledon White paint, Guardsman Blue stripes, and potent 289 cubic-inch V8, became an instant legend, defining a new era of American performance. This 1965 Mustang Fastback pays homage to that legendary GT350, meticulously crafted as a tribute to Shelby's original vision. Under the hood lies a built 289 cubic-inch V8, delivering the high-revving performance and unmistakable sound that made early Mustangs legendary. This powerplant is paired with a modern Tremec 5-speed manual transmission, a significant upgrade that enhances drivability and performance, allowing for both spirited driving and comfortable cruising. Showing 0 miles since its comprehensive build, this coupe is finished in a period-correct color scheme, bringing the spirit of the original Shelby to life with modern reliability and performance enhancements. This is an opportunity to own a meticulously reimagined classic that captures the raw essence of the Shelby GT350 with contemporary upgrades.
