Why Buy A Vintage Mustang?

[@mikewagner3088]

Mine was a 65 same color, Poppy Red fastback, with white interior, 4 speed and no AC. Loved it. And I love hearing your heart as you share your deep appreciation for Mustangs! Thanks for posting!

[@QualityClassics]

Thank you. I know what that looks like and YES, this color with the White interior is striking. I have had only one like that.

I have a 1967 mustang fastback that I’ve owned since high school it’s my first one. 37 years I’ve owned it

[@lagunaboss4407]

One develops a personal relationship with one's car the more that time passes.

[@chuck6958]

i have a 67 Coupe that I've had since i was 15... first car... 48 years. It's about to get the fully Monty

[@QualityClassics]

I love long term ownership stores !!!!

[@Gilbertajallecruz]

Absolutely love these LEGENDARY CLASSIC Cars, gotta have the 67 Fastback with the fog lights and running horse in the middle dark candy apple red metallic with black interior and I’m good! 💯

[@QualityClassics]

Yep, you have described a winner for sure.

[@1964FordMustang]

I totally agree, the perfect classic car at a relatively affordable price. Known worldwide and an incomparable automotive legend. Because of this popularity, there are also lot of fakes on the market. Check everything carefully, pay attention to papers and originality. A specialist in this field such as Quality Classics is always recommended. With a properly documented car from a reputable dealer, you will never lose money, fun is guaranteed and you own a piece of automotive history with a vintage Mustang. Great video 👍 thanks for all your information and advice.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

So true

[@QualityClassics]

Well thank you very much!!

I was 8 when these cars came out. In June 64, my dad bought home a new 64 1/2 Mustang convertible. It had V8 (260) auto and a center console. Been a Mustang fan ever since. I've owned several Mustangs over the years and stil have my 89 Saleen and a 99 Cobra.

[@QualityClassics]

You have had some great ones to be sure.

[@robt5818]

I learned to drive in the 1970s and my dad had several first generation Mustangs. I also inherited a 1969 Firebird, which I loved. The 1965 Mustang convertible was always a blast to drive to the beach!

[@ET74019]

My first truck was a classic, so easy to keep on the road. Always wanted and hopefully will own a 65-66 mustang someday and I know of fellow Texans I’ll be buying one from when I can 😊

[@RobRobertson-o9z]

Once you've got a Mustang you don't have to buy a new one. You are part of a happy family!

[@QualityClassics]

true true

[@sharkman885]

Agreed on all points A true American Icon Classic that is really an amazing testament to how innovative it was. The fact that the popularity remains so strong today is a testament to what Ford created.

[@QualityClassics]

Yeah the Mustang is loved all over the world. I know because we send them all over the world! 👊🏻👍🏻

[@darkgreen9098]

That is a beautiful fastback!

[@thomastucker3016]

I like the show I'd buy it I am trying to find a nice 1996 honda civic and that hard too do

[@DFox-ud3gx]

My 1st car was a 65 mustang . I loved that stang

[@QualityClassics]

What a great car to start out with!

[@drewsky1967]

I prefer the standard interior over the pony interior and 65 and six

[@craigt5990]

After I came back from ‘Nam I purchased a ‘67 GT fastback in early ‘70. It had factory A/C in dash, not under. One of my biggest regrets is getting rid of that car. It was so much fun to drive . Way more fun than my ‘64 GTO, and faster too. I replaced the stock shift linkage with a Hurst shifter and replaced the autolite 4bbl with a Holley 600 single pumper. I drove it like I stole it and it always got > 20mpg. Sweet car.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Great vid!!!!

[@user28af33]

Nice color, sweet ride.

[@QualityClassics]

Yes, I do agree with that!

[@kevincady5613]

Can you recommend an external lighting upgrade kit? Thank you. Kevin C.

[@DMUSA536]

I have a 65 coupe 6 cylinder. It has some pep. Just enjoyable to drive.

[@QualityClassics]

There you go ... the key to it all is "enjoyable to drive".

[@1964FordMustang]

@@QualityClassicsfully agree

[@joaquinalexander9]

And depending on where you live, good luck finding something decent at a decent price. Most of the good ones are gone. You find one and you're thinking about it- might as well commit. It'll be gone and...maybe it'll back on the market again in a short while BUT asking for / probably grabbing, a much higher price.

[@GigemGarage]

Hello, have you guys have a supplier of the for the 1965 Mustang Fastback interior quarter panel metal grilles (3 on each side)? I seemed to have found the part no one remanufactures these

[@wolfthornhawkridge5705]

What are your engine temps running at in Texas in a 289?

[@drodman34]

I owned a 66 Gt Fastback K code, built motor for Hampton 671 blower. 9" 4:30 gears in the 80's. Wish I never sold it. I now have a 65 Galaxie 500 LTD 352 W/factory AC. My cruiseomatic 3 spd has a green dot. Does anyone know when and why not to drive in the green dot.

[@QualityClassics]

good question ... here is the answer. The other drive selection was for iced roads or slippery wet roads. It will then take off in 2nd gear as opposed to 1st thereby reducing the chance of spinning the tires ... I should have addressed this in the video.

[@drodman34]

@@QualityClassics Thank you.

[@jsh3234]

Where do you find these at a reasonable price so that when you're reselling them your not ripping your customers off.

[@QualityClassics]

I have not seen reasonable prices for many years now. The focus is always to offer a good value ... meaning a car that is worth the price.

[@frankie21963]

Hi Michael, I've been following your operation for years and I am wondering why not buy a restored Mustang where you get a rebuilt driveline, interior, paint etc?

[@QualityClassics]

It's always best to buy fully restored, or as sorted as possible. My buying decisions depend on my objectives one of which is to find the rarer more desirable examples. some require more work than others.

[@cincyoldude5766]

Hi Micheal , is Quality Classics just you and your son , or do you also have employees? Seems to me QC has quite the level of trust . I’ll bet few question the price . Should the time for me to buy I know where to shop . Beautiful classic Mustangs .

[@QualityClassics]

Thank you for the kind comments. We have two other guys that work along side of us. We have made friends all over the world by being committed to excellence. We cant make them perfect but it seems we try harder than most. Cheers

[@kevincady5613]

We’re some of these 2 speed autos?

[@TOMV1234]

How much money is it? I would love to buy.

[@QualityClassics]

Sorry the car was sold before the video was ever made ... the purpose of the video is really to share my thoughts on why one might consider owning a vintage Mustang.

[@darryndetmers8533]

Is the K-Code for sale? Could you PM me? Thank you.

[@QualityClassics]

This car has already been sold. Thanks for inquiring.

[@mmartin2924]

Back in 79 I bought a 65 exactly like that one - Poppy Red 2+2, black standard interior, A-code, Auto, but no AC, and it had the spokes and spinner hubcaps (which I like). I paid one thousand eight hundred dollars, and the car was mint. I drove that car all up and down the East Coast. Those were the days...

[@stevefowler2112]

I learned to drive fast in a '66 C code Mustang in the early 70's...by that I mean I already knew how to drive but the 289 Mustang was the first car that had some performance, and I drove the tires off it. Many years later in the early 2000's I bought a '65 K code fastback and spent about $35K getting it back to OEM specs (with all the Shelby GT-350 mods, less the hood scoop and paint, I didn't want a clone). It was a fun project but by that time I had already owned a couple BMW 320's and a 2000 Mustang Cobra R model and the '65 Mustang just felt and drove so antiquated...even with the Shelby handling and performance mods it didn't really handle or stop very well and at 306 HP it wasn't slow but it also wasn't terribly fast either. But man they look very cool and sound cool too. p.s. I retired as a Principle Aerospace Engineer from a large American defense contractor in 2018 and bought a 2018 Porsche GT2 RS.

[@QualityClassics]

It sounds like you are dialed in on what you like ... most true driver type owners eventually land on what they like most. you would be surprised how many folks out there find the 'vintage experience' to be just that.

[@sharkman885]

I know One day I will get another one from you !

[@QualityClassics]

Sounds good! 👍🏻
