’65 Ford Mustang 2+2 Fastback

’65 Ford Mustang 2+2 Fastback

Im April 1964 stellte Ford auf der Basis seines Falcon einen 
Sportwagen vor, der auf den Namen Mustang hörte. Das war 
der Start zu einer Legende, die eine ganze Sportwagen Gattung 
– bekannt als Pony-Cars – gründete. Der Mustang war vom 
Start weg ein großer Erfolg, bis heute hält er mit knapp 680.000 
verkauften Einheiten im ersten Modelljahr den Rekord in den 
USA. Ford hatte genau den Geschmack der zumeist jungen 
Klientel getroffen und füllte offensichtlich am Markt eine Lücke 
aus, deren Ausmaß damals nicht zu erahnen war.
Das Besondere am Mustang war, dass sich durch eine 
umfangreiche Liste von Einzelextras und Ausstattungspaketen 
jeder Kunde sein Mustang-Modell ganz nach Geschmack 
gestalten konnte. Im ersten „halben“ Produktionsjahrgang 
1964 war nur eine Cabriolet-Version und das beliebte Hardtop-
Coupé erhältlich. Für den Jahrgang 1965 wurde zusätzlich 
eine Fließheck-Karosserie (=Fastback) angeboten, die 
wahrscheinlich die berühmteste Ausführung ist. Neben einem 
Reihen-Sechszylinder kam auch der weit häufiger bestellte 
289 ci, ein 4,7-Liter-V8-Motor mit Leistungen von 203 PS, 228 
PS und 275 PS, bei dem Fastback zum Einsatz. Dennoch war 
der Fastback 2+2 beim damaligen Kunden nicht wirklich der 
Favorit. Vom Ur-Mustang liefen in dreieinhalb Jahren 1,293 
Millionen Exemplare, darunter 112.600 2+2-Fastback-Coupés 
und 174.000 Cabriolets, vom Band. Nicht mitgezählt sind dabei 
die 1965 bei Shelby auf Basis des Mustang 2+2 Fastbacks ent-
standenen 562 Exemplare einer Rennsportversion, der Shelby 
GT-350 mit 306 PS starken 4,7-Liter-V8-Motor. 
In der heutigen Oldtimerszene sind die Fastback-2+2-
Fahrzeuge die begehrtesten Versionen, auch da sie seltener 
sind als das herkömmlich Coupé. Die elegante, fließende 
Form gilt bis heute als Style Ikone. Für die Fans des Pony 
Cars wird das lang auslaufende Fastback-Coupé immer die 
Nummer Eins bleiben.

In April 1964, Ford released a sports car based on the Falcon. 
Its name was “Mustang”. That was the start of a legend, the 
foundation of a complete species of sports cars known as 
“Pony Cars”. The Mustang was a great success right from the 
start. Even today, it still holds the record for the most cars sold 
in the first model year in the United States, at almost 680,000 
units. Ford had hit exactly the taste of a mostly young clientele 
and filled a gap in the market, the extent of which was then 
unpredictable. 
What was special about the Mustang was that each customer 
could “tailor” their Mustang entirely according to taste by 
choosing items from a comprehensive list of individual extras 
and equipment packages. Only the convertible and the popular 
hardtop versions were available in the first "half" of model year 
1964. For model year 1965, a sloped-back design known as 
the “2+2 Fastback” was added to the list. This body style was 
probably the most famous version. In addition to a straight six, 
a 4.7-litre, 289 cubic inch V-8 engine with outputs of 203, 228 
or 275 bhp was also made available and far more frequently 
ordered with the 2+2 Fastback. Even so, the 2+2 Fastback 
was not really the customers’ favourite at that time. 1.293 
million units of the original Mustang left the production line in 
the first three and a half years. This figure includes 112,600 
2+2 Fastback’s and 174,000 convertibles. Not included therein 
are the 562 units of the Shelby GT-350 racing version based 
on the Mustang 2+2 Fastback with a powerful 306 bhp 4.7-litre 
V-8 engine built by Shelby in 1965. 
The most sought after versions in the current classic car scene 
are the 2+2 Fastbacks, probably because they are rarer than 
the conventional hardtop. The elegant, flowing form is still 
regarded as an icon of styling. For Pony Car fans, the long 
tapered fastback will always remain number one.
