Hi I'm new to this website and wondering if anyone knows anybody who wants to sell a 65-66 fastback mustang??? I'm after a red one with the white interior, would like it to have air-con and power steering but is not essential. The best example of the car I found was a red 66... I think it was with number plate Texas01....... I think it was, it's an south Australian car. Willing to spend up to $45,000 but want it all complete with NO RUST!
Unless the car has had a comprehensive body restoration there is no such thing as a used 65/66 Mustang which has "NO RUST."
There are heaps of old Mustangs for sale that have never had a full body resto where the owner's claim that the car has "no rust". From what I have seen, about 75% are advertised this way and it's BS.
I have also seen quite a few so called "restored" cars which still have rust in them that has never been properly addressed - and needs to be .
Exercise caution.
If a car is advertised as having "no rust" then look extra hard for it because in most cases you will find it in a vehicle that has not had a thorough and expensive full body resto.
There are many excellent threads (with pictures) on this first class forum which will show you where the typical rust areas are in the model you are looking at.
From my observations I think there are quite a few people here who purchased various models they thought (from their comments here) were fairly free of any serious rust until the car was stripped back to bare bones, including some panel removal, revealing the true condition of the metal.
