1966 Ford Mustang Reviews, Pricing & Specs

the car I drive now is a Ford Mustang. It is easy to drive and work on. She holds the road well and moves good in trafic and speeds up fast. For a six cilander it runns just as good as my first Mustang @89 did. I feel in love with the first 6 model I saw at the age of 15, ever since then I always wanted on, and now I do. In time it will be as good as new. Then some day my daughter will own it.Aug 22, 2009

had a six cylinder but took it out and put in a 302 XXX long block with a hypereutectic pistons, 4 bbl carb, long tube headers with dual exhaust. still has a 3 speed automatic transmission that i wana replace eventually. suspension now needs to be beefed up and switched from 4 lug to 5 lug. 43 year old car so it has its issues but overall...awesome.Aug 17, 2009

Hauls ass in a straight line. It has GT brakes, so it stops, like, RIGHT NOW! It corners OK, it could use anti sway bars. Built solid as a rock. Downright dependable, easy to work on. This car was built when American cars were THE cars to own. Nice styling, it has Recarro seats in front and US Cloverleaf Mags all around. Mileage depends on the way U drive it, anywhere from 9 to 18 mpg. It's fun to drive and people remark on it where ever I go...Jul 30, 2009

This car has been an amazing part of my life. It's a real ego booster and is so much fun to drive. You really do just feel awesome sitting behind the weel. It's needed some repairs, but that's to be expected from a car that's almost fifty years old. I've had to replace the engine and the clutch, and I am in the process of replacing the interior of the car. Even if it looked horrible though, it's still a car with spirit and attitude. There is no power steering or brakes, but as soon as you get used to that, it's a breeze to drive. Of course, in today's horrible gas price world, mileage leaves something to be desired, she only gets on average 12 miles to the gallon. I've definately spent more on it than I bought it, or could sell it for, but with a car this amazing, who cares? The only serious drawback for me is that it has no air conditioning. That's tough in the summer.Aug 04, 2008

This car is fantastic. It has been in the family for almost 40 years. Brief history, my grandfather bought it for my father when he left for college in 1971. My father kept it even when it deteriorated. In the mid 90's when my brother and I turned 16... my father made the wise decision to put money into the car instead of buying us a honda civic - licke everyone else. Remains in the family and has no price tag. Fastback 2+2 model. 289 V8 with a an addition of dual ehaust, 4 barrel intake, GT wheels. It is a cruise-o-matic 3 speed automatic (slap shifter) also known as the green dot drive. Parchment leather interior, fm radio with cassette (need to be replaced). 240,000 miles Two rebuilt motors and two rebuilt transmissions - we don't exactly drive it slow. Not the fast car performance wise, but not too shabby either. Handling is a bit suspect, a product of its era. Not too heavy wich helps a great deal. Added disc breaks to the front which has been pretty helpful. Even though it is not modern - the simplicity makes it. Still better performance than the great majority of vehicles on the raod today. A pure joy to drive. British Racing green in color and rare at that. For every 1 Fastback made there were 4 convertables and 16 coupes. So it is a bit rare and the color makes it even more so. Bottom Line... it is a HEAD TURNER! Jun 11, 2008

Restored car with my dad. Styling inside and out is classic and beautiful. Interior is cramped, but that doesn't matter. Performance of the Base Coupe with a V8 doesn't live up to the looks of the car. The stock suspension, brakes, and steering sucks. 289 V8 has so so performance but is let down by the 3 spd. Auto Tranny. Fuel Economy is non existant. Driving the car somewhat frugally only returns about 12 mpg. Like any old car, there is always something to be fixed. However, all shortcomings are overcome simply by the coolness of the carApr 08, 2008

I've owned my pony since 2/81. I am the 3rd owner. Dont know much of the 1st owner, 2nd owner - man bought it for his wife, she wanted a cadillac, he got her one & traded in the pony. She was treated badly & needed alot of work. During the years I've worked on it-it's easy to work on. She's a pleasure to drive & I always get a thumbs up from admirers. She's Ivy green, with a black vinyl top & interior. She's my "lady".Apr 27, 2007
