A real diamond in the rough. It must be a good feeling, going under a Mustang, and not having to make "that" phone call. Nice car. Keep up the great content Kiwi.
Anybody with any interest in buying a first gen Mustang really needs to do themselves a great financial favor in seeking out this gentleman for his thorough eye on these cars. Well done as usual, Kiwi!
Kiwi this is a great example of a really great Mustang only bad thing is there isn’t much to work on for you. This is usually the results of your work (restoration)
What a relief, someone didn’t get sold a pig in a poke for a change. It’s a personal thing, but if your going for a day two look, it’s hard to go wrong with that style wheel, which I believe is a Torq Thrust D. A very nice car.
The Hot Rods and Customs are cool, but for me, I'll always love these originals most of all. There's something charming about how simple it is, and how well a car like this has survived 50+ years of use. Not going to win any races, but you'd be hard pressed to find a better cruiser! Plus, I think this is the best color combo offered for a Mustang- teal/turquoise inside and out looks like a million bucks!
Thanks for noticing, guys! The owner (me) is patiently waiting for Kiwi to take a break from his rusty big jobs and give this Unicorn a set of Wilwood front discs w/proper master cylinder, a Borgeson steering kit, and a 5-speed manual transmission. (Is Tremec the best choice?) Might be fun for a change to bring a rust free '66 into the 21st century...also it would make a great follow-up video(!)
Thats actually a very good car to video to reference what the underside should look like. Every area. Every seam. Every weld. It will make a priceless tool. Thanks Kiwi.👍🎩🍺
It's a shame somebody went to town with the rattle can black paint under there. If it was done properly with satin black and they removed things, or at least masked them before spraying. But since that's my only complaint. That's a damn good car.
I agree. I think it's very weird, but I'm the lucky guy who bought this car anyway. The story goes that my the car was restored by a motorcycle shop in Arizona where the car was born and raised. I'm not sure why he went with the black paint underneath.
The single master cyclinder on my 64 Pontiac Bonneville has been there since... 1964. It is perfectly fine - like anything it needs to be maintained and cared for.
The problem with a single master cylinder is not that it doesn't work well. The problem is if you develop a leak anywhere in the brake system, you lose ALL your brakes. A dual master cylinder separates the front and rear brakes, so if you get a leak in the rear brakes, you still have front brakes, and if you lose the front brakes you still have rear brakes. It's a safety device. I also like front discs. Not only do they work better, but they are a lot easier to work on. As long as there is no ABS. I despise that crap.
That’s a great car… well done on the upkeep. I have a 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback that I’ve been driving for just over 52 years. I got it with 11,000 miles and it now has almost 700,000 miles on the odometer. It was a daily driver for 50 years. My car doesn’t look like yours but I still love it. It has battle scars but overall still gets thumbs up and beeps every time I take her out. I have made it safer with disc brakes and dual master cylinder. I just had the complete front end done and the ride is nice. Great video… good to see the hobby doing well in your area of the world! Thanks for sharing your video with us!!
Thanks for pointing all this out. Some of it you've shown before on other vehicles. I've saved this one in my collection from you. I still have my wife's mustang convertible to do.
Wow, mate! To see one so obviously well kept and sorted as things came up, is a real treat. Seeing the tell-tale signs of it not having been buggered around with (and not having needed any welding) really puts a smile on the dial and I reckon you must get as much of a kick out of seeing it as us blokes who love the beasts.....probably more so. Ok, so she's been prettied up, but it looks like they had a pretty solid base to work from and it would have been more a refresh than a full-on strip-it and nut-and-bolt resto - the sort of thing you used to see when they were about 10 years old, not 60. As you say, she's a rare one to find nowadays. I'll bet the owner will be chuffed as to hear what he has bought too. Thanks for taking the time and showing us this beautiful fastback and reminding us that there are still a few cars out there that are as good as they really look. All the best.
The vin tags used to get cut off of smashed, crashed, mustangs and Shelbys welded back on another bodys and finished to the point where you never knew it was done and I’m sure it’s still done today.
My '66 had a single master and had the factory manual disc brakes, Kelsey-Hayes. It had a proportioning valve for Front-Rear. Same color as that Fastback.

Thank you for sharing this one! Its always good to follow you along and appreciate your experience with these cars. It helps us out a lot for those of us looking for a classic car
So I’ve got a question that maybe you’ve not been asked before : did you become THE go to ( or one of the highly revered) Mustang guys because that was your goal or did it just work out that way through sheer opportunity and expertise ?? I hope you appreciate that I pay enough attention to your videos that brain came up with question ! Lol. Take care my friend and I love what you’re doing !
Honestly it kinda just worked out that way. When I opened the shop I went looking for a project car to show case what I could do and ended up buying a $850 66 Mustang coupe and the rest is history😀😎
I appreciate the honesty ! And I just kinda figured some sort of situation like that. I’m 53 and I’ve learned that life will kinda stick two fingers in your nostrils and pull you along and hope that you’re paying attention to the way it’s pulling ! Lol. Your abilities and knowledge are the biggest reasons I watch your channel and I so enjoy every video !
I've never been a fan of early Mustangs (or GM F-bodies for that matter) but, this looks like a nice one. No major repairs needed and, I'm sure it can be enjoyed pretty much as is for the time being. However, in my opinion, the best part about this Mustang is that it's NOT RED!
A red 1965-1967 Mustang convertible with a white top, or even a red 1965-1967 Mustang coupe with a white vinyl top has always been one of my dream cars. With original 14" steel wheels, 1965 wheel covers, and narrow whitewall tires.
@@geraldscott4302 We all like what we like. If that's what you like, great. Everyone has their own tastes. You might think I'm crazy but, I freely admit that I don't like ANY Mustang before the Mustang II. I also don't like GM F-bodies until the "big bumper" 1974 models and I don't like either one in red lol!
Hahaha. Funny comment. I am the owner of this car, it's my 5th Mustang. (The 1st was my dad's car, same color 2+2 - he bought it new when I was 15- Tahoe Turquoise but with black interior, which I really did like.) But I'm laughing because #2 was red, #3 was yellow, #4 was red again and finally I came home to my beloved Tahoe Turquoise!
You never see them like that. But you can replicate those factory spot welds by using a tig welder to spot weld. Blunt end down and stab the pedal for 2 seconds. Looks just like original
Beautiful car. I really like the wheels and tires. It's too bad about the frame rails. I don't have any experience with vintage Mustangs, but I've worked on a lot of 1979-2004 Mustangs, and it seems like almost all of them have both the front frame rails and pinch welds smashed. It would be nice if they had designed in some lift points. I wish they had made the frame rails out of MUCH heavier metal, and made them go all the way from front to back. You can get weld on subframe connectors for '79-'04 Mustangs that give you a lifting point.
That car deserves an export brace. My 68 Cougar was off a good half inch. Any Mustang or Cougar owner should get one, the factory braces are worthless.
Retail Red lol Tail light guarantee on the last shit box lesson 1 have any car you want to buy do a pre inspection if the owner won't let you run away there hiding lots of sins great video from a very knowledgeable man learning alot more videos please appreciate what you do best of luck from the Sunshine State Florida
Not my preferred color - I like the golds and browns for that era - but definitely my favorite form factor for that platform. Great inspection and excellent verdict: it's nice to see there are still good deals - and good dealers - out there.
The subframe is definitely a bad design. The much later Foxbody Mustangs, from 1979-2004 have the same design. Very weak and flimsy. The whole car flexes like a wet noodle. If you jack up one corner of a Foxbody enough to get the tire off, the doors won't open or close. They should have had full length frame rails, and they should have been made out of much heavier metal. You can get weld on subframe connectors for the Foxbody cars. Putting a Foxbody Mustang on a lift is not a good idea. You are going to damage something. I jack them from the rear axle and under the front control arms. Even the K member under the engine is made of tin.
I love your videos, found you through Uncle Tony. The camera however sounds like a 90's handheld video cam, really creaky. Use what Tony uses would be my suggestion. But great content!

Seems the previous owner didn't like front and rear bumperettes. With these originally single exhaust 65/66 Mustangs, it's critical to do the factory dual exhaust brake line routing. Heat wrap on lines doesn't cut it.
I can't disagree. Call me weird, but I'd be fine with the original single exhaust. I'm the owner of this car and I bought it because my dad bought the same car new, same color, when I was 15. I took by girlfriend to the prom in that car, and we're married 50 years last month. But I digress...never did change the single exhaust in 1966.
Thanks for the information excellent video. I am wondering if I was looking at that car I would have used a magnet or paint gage. Just to see how much filler behind W.W.
Very good point! I had the exact same thought after I watched the video. I am the proud owner of this car, by the way, so I took a strong magnet to me car and it sticks to EVERYTHING, even behind the rear wheels!😃I'm a lucky guy.
I see you don’t support the upper A-arms when lifting old mustangs or falcons. Have you ever run into a situation when the shocks are damaged by lifting this way? Thanks
The early mustangs did have a very big gap on the bottom of the doors. I've closed that gap up welding 1/8x1/8" square rod onto the bottom of the door on several higher end builds I've done
My family bought a 66 in 66. It went thru my family and in 73 it went to me. Unfortunately my sister had sized the engine. My Dad wanted me ,his 16 yr old daughter to learn car repair.

My '66 had a single master and had the factory manual disc brakes, Kelsey-Hayes. It had a proportioning valve for Front-Rear. Same color as that Fastback.
The dual master cylinder is a safety device to help prevent you from losing both your front and rear brakes at the same time.
Bet you wish you still had it..... thanks for watching!
Love that color! Would like to see a little more of the interior next time. Thanks Kiwi!

Its strange how homemade a Ford's design looks compared to other cars. There are strange gaps, and the subframe just bluntly ends.

@@kiwiclassicsandcustoms9160 I owned a 65 Coupe and the gap was about 3\8 of an inch.
@@flycatchful yeah that's typical
Not even any patches under the driver's feet?
What a cherry!
Nice to see someone not get robbed on their purchase. Is it me though or is the bottom gap along the driver's door a bit large?
I think you're right. And since this is my car, you've got me thinking about that.
Front valance is missing bolts.
At the 6 minute mark it looks like the rocker is pulled away????
I'm NO Mustang expert!!!!!
I'd like it better if the microphone would stop crackling around....
A BIT OF A NO NO. GOT IT!
Sure needs door adjustment, like a half inch crack at front of door and no crack at rear
I think you're right. I'm the owner, so I'll talk to Mr. Kiwi about that.
floorpana say an Arizona car?
But you have a pile of rust in the background,, the price of BMC
Nice original Mustang, now drop in a Coyote engine in it. 😀
I'm a hot toddler at heart but I think I'd have to leave this one stock. Thanks for watching
I hate those single reservoir master cylinders. One hole and NO brakes. Scary! Nice fastback!
Not another one !
