The 1965 Mustang has a well-deserved place in automotive history books for a good reason. It gave birth to a lineup that eventually became one of the most successful cars in the entire world, with millions of people out there still dreaming, not necessarily about owning one, but at least driving it.
Originally offered as a hardtop and convertible and only a few months later as a fastback, too, the Mustang is the kind of car that certainly doesn’t deserve to be left abandoned in the middle of nowhere under the clear sky.
And yet, some people still do it for a reason that we, car lovers, simply can’t understand, so watching a Mustang like the one we have here and shedding a tear has become perfectly normal.
Because yes, that’s a Ford Mustang hiding under that big pile of rusted metal, and unfortunately, pretty much everything on it is missing. Except for the steering wheel, that is, though by the looks of things, not even the owner considered it’s in a condition worth mentioning in a sales ad on eBay.
The only good news is that seller carlj22585 says the Mustang comes with a clean title, but despite this, there’s no doubt whoever has the guts to start a restoration project would have tons of work to do before the car can even sit on its own wheels.
Of course, with the right job, such a car can end up being worth a lot more, especially since it’s a first-year factory V8 fastback, but the super-rusty condition could make most people just walk away.
The price doesn’t seem to be very appealing either, as the seller expects to get $4,000 for the car, without even accepting other deals. If you want to check the rust bucket in person, you can find it “parked,” possibly for eternity, in Manahawkin, New Jersey, where it’s quietly waiting for a new chance.
