LOT #725 - 1965 FORD MUSTANG CUSTOM FASTBACK – NO RESERVE
CUSTOM, CLASSIC AND ROAD-READY, 1965 MUSTANG
THIS NO RESERVE PONY IS SELLING
AT THE LAS VEGAS AUCTION
Since its inception, the Ford Mustang has been a tenacious
force. Over time it captured the imagination of muscle car
purists and customizers alike.
The Mustang has made its way into all different aspects of
culture, becoming a piece of Americana that is undoubtedly
part of automotive history. The car's official unveiling at the
New York World's Fair in 1964 was witnessed by attendees
and seen in nearly every available media medium of the day.
Adding to the model's star power were its appearances on the
silver screen in 1964's Goldfinger and 1965's Thunderball,
- - - making its mark with James Bond's DB5.

OF PRODUCTION. The appeal of the first-gen Mustang isn't exclusive to just
- - - those who grew up with one, or those who categorized it as
their dream car. The 1965 Mustang always seems to be among
everyone's favorite cars across all age groups. It doesn't hurt
that its styling has also aged well.
While there are so many Mustangs in the world, in virtually
any flavor you could hope for, occasionally, you come across
one that sticks with you. Sometimes, a first-gen Mustang takes
hold of your mind and heart and leaves a lasting impression.
One such car, a 1965 Ford Mustang custom fastback, has done
just that and is selling with No Reserve at the 2022 Las Vegas
Auction, held June 30 to July 2 in the West Hall of the Las
Vegas Convention Center.
