Gateway Classic Cars Houston Showroom is proud to present this well-restored and documented 1966 Ford Mustang. Saddle up and step back into the golden age of American muscle, where horsepower ruled the open road and style was as bold as the frontier. Dressed in a striking red exterior that shines like a desert sunset, this classic Mustang stands tall and proud, ready to turn heads from Main Street to the long stretch of highway beyond town limits.
Under the hood lies a rebuilt 289 CID V8 that's been spurred up with a high-performance cam, giving this Stang the kind of grit and growl that lets folks know it means business. Rowing through the gears is a Tremec 5-speed manual transmission paired with a hydraulic clutch, delivering smooth, confident shifts whether you're cruising into town or charging down the blacktop. A Currie 9-inch rear end, all-new shocks and coils, and thoughtful suspension upgrades ensure this Mustang rides steady while still throwing down serious power. Added upgrades include a Currie gas tank, Griffin aluminum radiator, Heidt's rack and pinion steering, high-torque starter, power brakes, and power steering, making this classic as dependable as it is powerful. Within the last two years, a new water pump, new alternator, replaced ball joints and front-end bushings, and new shocks have been added to keep this Mustang trail-ready and road-strong.
Step inside the cabin and you'll find a sharp two-tone tan leather Pony interior that pairs beautifully with the rich exterior paint, blending classic style with a refined Western flair. A woodgrain dash and custom wood-finished steering wheel set the tone, while fresh black carpeting and a black headliner finish off the interior with a clean, well-kept look. A vintage-style radio adds just the right touch of old-school charm, perfect for cruising with your favorite outlaw country or classic rock playing low.
This 1966 Ford Mustang is more than just a car-it's a modern-day iron horse with classic roots. With its iconic looks, strong V8 power, and well-chosen upgrades, it's ready to roam the highways and steal the spotlight wherever it rides. If you're looking for a Mustang that blends classic American muscle with a rugged, Western spirit, this one is ready to ride off into the sunset with its next owner.
