Orange and White 1966 Mustang fastback, right side view. Notice that the drip edge along the top edge of the door has been removed. The rear edge of the trunk lid has been flared up.![]()
Here is a close of of the rear fender. The wheels are American Racing torque thrust II.
The paint design is carried on to the rear of the Mustang. Check out the spoiler.
Lots of chrome and orange paint under the hood. That's a Shelby GT350 hood scoop modified to bolt onto the carb.
Check out the interior. The interior is dash pad delete with aluminum
instrument bezel and glove box door. iIt is painted orange body color. The seats are covered in Oyster leather. It has a Colorado Custom all aluminum steering wheel and a color matching shift knob.![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()
Dash close-up, interior view of the 1966 Mustang. The optional delux steering wheel came with simulated wood grain, I certainly like the standard one better.
Door plate of the 1966 Mustang Sprint 200. 65A is the standard hardtop coupe body, M is the Wimbledon White paint, 22 is blue trim, 16A assembled the 16th of January for 71 Los Angeles. Wish we could read the Transmission code to see if this is an automatic to verify that Sprint "A" meant automatic transmission.
Invoice for the Wimbledon White 1966 Mustang. The Sprint 200 Package A is clearly listed (200 cubic inch engine with possibly original automatic transmission). Along with the free options. This car has been repainted since it lost its side accent stripe. The standard base hardtop 1966 price was $2416, so you can see the Sprint Package in this case was only $79.16 more. You got a less powerful engine (the standard engine was a 200hp, 289ci, V8 (compared to the Sprint 200ci, 120hp, in-line 6) but you got other options $50.41 full-length center console, $13.90 accent stripe, $58.24 wire wheel covers, $33.31 white wall tires, and etc.
Candy Red 1966 Mustang fastback owned by Dana Bowers from Ft Myers, Florida. This special paint is a two step process. A transparent (candy) red paint is applied over a silver basecoat. Notice how far the hood opens. This one has a set of special hinges which allows the hood to open farther than with stock hinges. The engine is a 302ci V8. Dana adds, "We had looked for about six months for a car when I found this one online for sale in Nashville, Tennessee . It was being used for 1/4 mile track racing. I think that is what saved the car as it never saw the road or bad weather. It has all original sheet metal and floor pans. We spent two years restoring and updating all the mechanicals and paint. Now we just enjoy showing and driving it."
Another shot of Dana's Candy Red 1966 Mustang fastback at a car show. The interior is black in color.
