What’s special about this listing
This 1966 Ford Mustang Convertible represents a thoughtful blend of classic styling and modern drivability, according to the seller. As one of approximately 72,119 convertibles produced during the 1966 model year (out of 607,568 total Mustangs built), this example has been categorized as Modified by Classic.com curators. The vehicle was restored by Norwood Wooding of Wooding's Auto Body Works in Roanoke, Virginia, and has remained with its third owner for the past 22 years, reflecting careful stewardship throughout its life.
Described as a mild restomod, this Mustang retains its factory-inspired appearance while benefiting from significant mechanical and comfort upgrades. The 302ci V8 was overhauled by Highlands Machine in 2013 with receipts on file, and is paired with a Ford four-speed automatic overdrive transmission and Ford 8 rear axle with 3.80 gears for improved highway cruising. Additional upgrades include a Heidts Mustang II front suspension with tubular control arms, power rack-and-pinion steering, power front disc brakes, and an aluminum radiator with electric cooling fan for enhanced reliability.
