Post by mustang_joe »

Picked up a new project, a Aspen Gold, 66 HCS Coupe. Needs alot of work, but nothing too over the top... Going to try and attach some pics...!!!

I believe it was just badges and unique colours for 66-67.

Yes Nuts that correct or so i believe....only 333 were made, approximately 39 Convertibles, 20 Fastbacks 2+2 and 274 Hardtops!!! These were the first cars in a line of limited edition (besides the Shelby’s) classic Mustangs used to further enhance the interest in their pony car.
Mine is a 289 , 3 speed manual car.. quite stoked to have found quite a rare car, havent seen another yet, but someone in aussie must have one....

Did you buy the car locally or is it still in the states?

Look at the DSO on the car 51 (Denver CO) 0240 (inv # for a special order)

Paul (PNewitt) should be able to fill you in on that car.

Unilec5544- I brought it in the US... and it is still there OzBilt - Thanks for the contact..

It has come with alot of new/ used parts...alot of sheet metal.. The interior is original and in good condition.. It still drives alright, which is a bonus, considering what i picked it up for...!!!

Just looking for another car over there to throw in a container to ship.. and then the fun begins. :-))
