1966 Pink Mustang “Custom” For Sale On EBay

Post image for 1966 Pink Mustang “Custom” For Sale On EBay

by JonBenya on October 19, 2011

I love eBay finds like this one.  It’s like Christmas time; you really have no idea what you’re going to find waiting for you with a car like this!

The owner of the car gives us painfully little information, aside from the fact it’s a rebuild motor, rebuilt transmission, and a “custom” paint job.  We don’t know if it’s the original motor/transmission, we have no idea what the data plate codes are, and while the owner says the interior has been redone, the only photo we can see shows hideous seat covers hiding the original seats and a multi-colored dash padding that looks like it was made from the skin of a pink unicorn.

If that’s not enough to give you heart palpitations, check out the price.  Bidding starts at $10,000, with a Buy-it-now of $18,000.  I’ll admit, it someone offered my $18,000 for a car like that, I’d be eager to sell it, too!  The upside is that from the photos this car looks to have potential.  As long as it’s not a bondo-filled train wreck the interior could be easily corrected and it’s entierly possible the car is one of the original pink mustangs. If it’s got the original motor, transmission and data plate, this might just be worth taking a look at!

Another pink Mustang just went up for sale, this time in San Diego, and it looks to be of the Dusk Rose variety.  The car (a V-8 coupe) has been listed by Beverly Hills Motorcars and according to the add, it appears to be mostly original.  Dusk Rose was the most common of the pink colors, but there were still less than 1,000 produced that year.

The beautiful thing about this car is the claim that it’s original paint and interior.  It’s great to have a fully restored mustang, but they’re only original once.  The car could probably use some cosmetic attention, but the owners say it’s in great running/driving condition, so this vehicle might just make for an attention getting weekend cruiser!

To Cure a Car’s Cancer, You’ve Got To Find It First!

February 24, 2010

Getting an antique convertible back into top shape is no easy task.  By far the worst part of it is stripping down the car and seeing first hand what years of damage and neglect have done to a once beautiful car.  It’s also difficult to bear in mind that before I started stripping down the [...]

A 1965 Mustang Hood Ornament?

February 11, 2010

I’ve seen this debate come up a few times over the years.  Every once in awhile someone pops up asking about a hood ornament they saw once on a mid-60′s Mustang, and they want to know if it was a factory original option or a cheap aftermarket item.  Well, it just so happens that my [...]
