Ford Mustang Convertible Sprint 200

Ford Mustang 1966 Description

Promoted as the Millionth Mustang Success Sale. the Sprint 200 limited edition package was offered mid 1966 when Ford worried about inventory problems with the first V8 level upgrade 289ci engine. The Sprint 200 was a sport package specifically designed for the base 200ci 6 cylinder engine which were plentiful. Other Sprint options included center floor console; painted side accent stripes (color matched with the car's interior); deletion of the chrome rear quarter ornaments; a set of deluxe 48 spoke. blue center wire-style wheel covers; and a "Sprint 200" decal on the engine's chrome air cleaner cover. This is a very collectible and rare edition of the 200ci Mustang. Previous owner had invested $15. 00 (fully documented with receipts) in maintenance in recent years to keep the car in excellent condition. Car has been in dry storage for many years. and drives flawlessly. I just drove this car on a 200 mile trip from Tahoe to East Bay San Francisco. I was a pleasure to drive. Pony interior package. new convertible top. no rust anywhere. Paint is very good (documented bare metal respray in original color code M 'Wimbledon White'. costing $6. 00) - has been in dry storage so still looks like new. Still original drum brakes but have been completely refurbished. The car has a clean Nevada title. I just brought the car back to the Bay Area. and have a bill of sale and title signed off by the previous owner of 30 years. To complete the cars restoration. the pony interior has worn along 1 seam on the passenger side seat base. and at the center of the rear bench. But its still very presentable. I would strongly encourage serious bidders to come and view this car before the auction ends to fully appreciate its condition. Located in 94597 zip area.
