    289 4v fastbacks are getting tough to find. Does it have front disc brakes? I'd put it closer to $8-$10k. If it has the front disc brakes, I'd throw a GT rear valance on it, some "trumpet" exhaust tips, a couple of grill lights, a couple of "GT" fender badges, and call it a "GT". I'd also raise the price closer to $12k.

          I think it will fetch $8-12k depending on how long you want to sit on it.

          Fastbacks are premium, but there aren't a lot of people looking for a project. Most people that want a '65 Mustang are older now and they aren't interested in blowing it all apart and fixing rust.

            Yeah. The "K" code was the only higher option in '66, and those are about as rare as hens' teeth.

              I still say $6k for an A code, 8-10 for a C code and 12-15 for a K code in this condition. Put it for $10k and see how long it lasts, it may sell quickly but I doubt it. Coupes are about half the FB and the converts split the difference IMO from what I've seen.

                Maybe a typo, but the A-code is more valuable than the C-code.

                If that K-code happens to be a 'vert, they're crazy high.

                  Not to mention you can buy a fastback with no rust brand new. To me that hurt the values more then anything. A guy I work with has a 67 or 68 he tried to sell me for 6k when the market was good. I showed him what they were bringing then and its still in his garage.

                      Acode is worth more then a c code.

                        Ok, I have it backwards but you see what I mean.

                        And F that $15k hunk of steel. They ever get the VIN thing figured out for those?

                            my point exactly. you should be able to at least triple the price of what I sold mine for.

                              Wouldn't take too much to make a $25k-$30k car. I just see work, so the value I'd put on it is off. I probably wouldn't pay a dollar over $7k.

                                That Dynacorn body didn't do shit to values, especially when you're talking about an A-code car where it's all about a VIN.

                                hah, yeah only 15-20k in paint and parts. That car needs everything. Still, 7k would be a steal.

                                You can bet that the cowl is Swiss cheese and I'd take a close look at the floor pans. Chances are really good that they've got some holes.

                                That said, this car looks to be a good start for a resto.

                                So to sum up: listen to Danny. He's always right.
