Gateway Classic Cars of Dallas is excited to present this 1965 Ford Mustang Hardtop, a beautifully preserved first-generation pony car powered by its desirable factory A-Code 289 V8. Finished in eye-catching Poppy Red (Color Code 3) over a clean white standard bucket seat interior, this Mustang captures everything enthusiasts love about the car that changed the American automotive landscape. Equipped with factory air conditioning, power steering, and a smooth-shifting C4 automatic transmission, it offers the ideal blend of classic style and comfortable cruising. Under the hood sits the sought-after A-Code 289 cubic-inch V8, originally rated at 225 horsepower thanks to its factory 4-barrel carburetor. Sitting above the standard C-Code engine in Ford's lineup, the A-Code cars remain highly desirable among collectors for their additional performance while maintaining excellent drivability. Paired with the dependable C4 automatic transmission, this Mustang is equally at home cruising city streets or stretching its legs on the highway. Factory power steering makes maneuvering effortless, while factory air conditioning adds comfort that's appreciated during warm-weather drives. The accompanying data plate confirms this Mustang's factory pedigree: VIN: 5R07A149910 5 - 1965 model year R - Built at Ford's San Jose, California assembly plant 07 - Hardtop Coupe A - Factory A-Code 289 4V V8 Body: 65A - Hardtop with standard bucket seats Color: 3 - Poppy Red Trim: D6 - White standard vinyl bucket seats Date: 23K - October 23, 1964 production DSO: 61 - Dallas Sales District Axle: 1 - 3.00:1 conventional rear axle Transmission: 6 - C4 Cruise-O-Matic automatic The exterior presents beautifully in its vibrant Poppy Red finish, accented by chrome bumpers, polished trim, and classic styled steel wheels wrapped in BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires.
