The Mustang is a pillar of American automotive history - Lee Iacocca's dream car that brought sporting dash and styling to the American baby-boomer generation. Its first public showing was at the New York World's Fair on April 17^th 1964, and by the end of that model year an amazing 126,538 had found homes. The following model year saw a Fastback join the existing Notchback and Convertible bodystyles, while the popular 260ci V8 was replaced with a 289ci one.

According to its quoted chassis number, 5F08A749155, this particular example was built in Ford’s Dearborn, Michigan plant during the 1965 model-year as a Convertible equipped with the optional ‘A-code’ 289ci (4.7litre) V8 engine. Making its way to the UK in 1987, the Mustang is understood to have been professionally converted to RHD thereafter. Finished in Red with Beige upholstery and Black carpets, the four-seater has recently returned from the South of France. Judged by the seller to be in ‘very good overall’ condition, the Ford has reportedly benefited from some €17,000 worth of expenditure over the last four years including a new White soft-top. Sporting a Red-rimmed steering wheel, twin exhaust system, more modern instrumentation and automatic transmission, ‘JGU 45C’ would seem ideal for an enthusiast who has always wanted a Classic Mustang with the steering wheel on the ‘correct’ side.

PLEASE NOTE: Much of the money spent on this lot since 2018 was with La Grange aux V8 of Duravel and included a thorough engine overhaul plus attention to the brakes
