My ‘65 Mustang, and my son, and grandson.021354B3-79E2-4059-8A62-2827264493B9

That's the exact same color blue of the mustang convertible I had. Mine had black interior, and I think the engine of mine was 289 horsepower. Arnold

 

The “289” designation was cubic inch displacement (engine size), not horsepower. Horsepower on the same sized engine could vary greatly due to type of carburetor, heads, exhaust, and cam installed. Early Mustangs frequently had either a 260 or 289 V8 engine as an option, the base engine was a 200 cubic inch straight six cylinder. Even the little six with a three speed moved the Mustang pretty well, since it was pretty light weight. I bought one in the early seventies for $250, and will always regret trading it, it was a great little car!
