Close-up of the Mustang 2+2 fender emblem. The 2+2 stands for two in the front seat and 2 passengers in the back seat. The Mustang fastback sporty body style was added to the hardtop and convertible the year earlier in 1965. To make sure prospective owners knew that this sporty body style could still comfortably seat 4, this 2+2 branding was used.

Do you see Pat and Jack's 66 here? This was the classic (1964-1969) section of the 2010, Port Angeles, Washington, Mustang car show. Port Angeles is in the northern Olympic peninsula of Washington on the shores of the Juan De Fuca Strait. It was a little overcast this day and therefore half of the 100+ Mustangs showed up. Still it was a very nice show.

We added a 3-inch cowl hood and one of kind custom rear spoiler, both of which are painted blue for a nice two tone paint. The trunk is also finished with the same carpet as the interior. It has front disc brakes with Borgeson power steering and an all new suspension. The car runs and drives great - no disappointments any where. It is highly detailed and well taken care of."
