Barn finds are cool, but barn finds that bring back an old Ford Mustang are the dream that never comes true for so many people.
And yet, sometimes it does, and now someone on Craigslist wants to let others restore a ’66 Mustang Fastback that’s been sitting for over two decades in a barn.

The car, which the seller explains comes with a manual transmission, is also fitted with the original 289 V8 that was installed by Ford when the Mustang left the factory. There are no other details regarding the engine, so we still don’t know if it’s running or not.

The good thing is that judging from all the pictures posted in the listing on Craigslist, the ’66 Mustang Fastback appears to be in a shape that would allow for a restoration process. Of course, the paint is almost nowhere to be seen, but the seller guarantees it’s a complete car that just got its original paint worn out.

The interior also requires some upholstery work, but at the end of the day, it’s a barn find Mustang that could certainly be brought back to life.

Rare 1966 Mustang 2+2 Fastback project for sale. Complete car, original numbers-matching 289, manual transmission, worn original Vintage Burgundy metallic paint, black Pony interior, and best of all, the fold-down rear seat option!” the seller explains about the car which they say come with a pretty good price that could easily increase with a proper restoration job.

And speaking of the price, this Mustang can be yours for $15,000, which is a fairly decent price for a ’66 Mustang that’s been parked for so long. Of course, it all comes down to how everything on the car actually turns out to be after a closer inspection, so if you want to check it out, you can find the Mustang in Vancouver, Washington.
