FOR SALE 1965 Mustang Fastback GT - K code project

This is a true 1965 Mustang Fastback GT K code with original drive train original interior and paint. It’s been sitting un-ran for 20 yrs and only garaged for the last 15 years. It did sit outside at some point, hence the acorns which are no additional charge. Of the 77,000 Mustang Fastbacks produced in 1965 only 512 were K code Raven Black. This is 1 of 512 produced and possibly the only one of its kind.

Hey Rusty . Is it free?? I don't see no price ?

A restored K code fastback is worth big bucks and replacement parts are almost free when compared to Mopar. This could actually be a get your money back restore if the price is right.

Found this one. Thought they were selling for more than that, but 50K is still pretty strong for a car as cheap as a Mustang to restore.

That is a Boss 302 engine. Worth some good money to someone restoring a Boss car, but it really hurts the value of your car since it doesn't have the Hipo 289 you've been hyping. Plus they are almost impossible to find.

The difference between a 289 and Boss 302 is huge. Open the hood and if the engine looks like a Cleveland it's a Boss or someone put Cleveland heads on a 289 (not direct bolt on conversion). As mentioned, K code stuff is hard to find and expensive.

1) Best Offer - An Aussie offered $15k, but has since become unresponsive.
2)I'm aware its a Boss 302 or a 289HiPo perhaps with Cleveland heads.
3) I will dig into the motor numbers today.

If I was already married (Oct wedding coming) and my Son was in atleast his Junior Year of college (he's a Senior in HS). I'd be keeping this bad boy. I talk, speak, eat drink and love my Mopars. BUT - I sure do like this car.

Congrats on the upcoming wedding. Does your fiance like Mustangs?

She does.... But she likes the idea of marrying me better.. LOL.. j/k

Looks like a Boss 302 or 351C

Boss 302 or Boss top end on the 289 shortblock (less likely). You can tell it's a Boss (or at least Windsor block) by the timing chain cover and waterpump. Not a Boss carb or distributor. Boss exhaust manifolds.

Don't bother looking for the serial numbers on the block: if it has screw in freeze plugs, it's a 4 bolt main Boss block. Easier to see than looking through grime for the serial number. :

I see you have it on fleaBay. Good luck, I think you'll get your money out of it. It's all I can do now to not tell you I want it 'cause I'm jonesing for that thing.

Congrats on the impending marriage!

Yep - I knew that wouldn't last at all. I think it would be cool to have just gotten the mechanicals squared away and just driven the thing. The world has enough trailer queen K Fastbacks around....

Congrats!
