The K Code 289/271hp engine was developed by Ford in the early 60s and offered first as an option on the late 63 and 64 Ford Fairlane. In 64 and 65, the Hi-Po engine became a Mustang production option. The HI-Po was offered as a production option in 66 and ended in 67 because of the potential racing applications for the 271 Hi-Po engine and to limit liability, Ford warranted the Hi-Po for 90 days or 4,000 miles. The standard warrant was 12 months or 12,000 miles. This genuine K-Code Mustang was born at Ford's Metuchen, NJ assembly plant, built Oct. 23, 1965 and shipped to Chicago Il. Purchased by someone from West Virginia, where it spent most of it's life. Following, the second owner was from CA. After speaking with him, he received the car which had been restored with approx. 1,000 miles the rebuilt engine. Bored .030 thousands over 11:00:1 compression, balanced assembly, solid lifter, Hi-Po heads, and rebuilt by Jasper Engineering. Also, the orig. C-4 automatic was rebuilt at the same time. Very well documented through the previous owners history and we have many additional receipts and info, copy of orig. Title, orig. West Virginia license plates etc. Factory orig. door ID tag, orig. buck tag (extremely important), from Metuchen, NJ where they built few K-code performance units, especially with automatic trans. (extremely rare). Owning a true K-code Mustang is a great investment. This one is optioned with the GT pkg., road style wheels, am radio, deluxe Pony interior, remote driver's side mirror, FDB, flip fold seat and 3.50 axle ratio, block casting # C5AE-6015E. This rare example was completely restored 4-5 yrs. ago. This 66 K Code GT Fastback has just had a complete high quality repaint Feb 1012. Bringing this car to the next level, we refinished the roof because of slight pippling in the clear coat. At that time we also refinished the both rear quarters and blended into the doors. Then...we decided to disassemble the whole car and refinish it. Removal of the chrome, bumpers, trim, bright work, side marker emblems, doors, hood and fenders and readjusted all the body lines to make sure they lined up correctly. We then removed the engine and trans. because someone painted it black, (only for 65 models, but not for 66). We refinished the entire engine bay with the correct satin black finish. A complete new engine and head lamp wire harness was installed, complete new front nose fastener kit, belts, hoses, clamps and stickers. All the head lamp buckets were removed as well as the new rear tail lamp assemblies, lenses, gaskets and seals were also ordered. New back up lights, complete new set of wheel opening mouldings (never on the car before). While apart, we replaced the following items, front grille assembly, fog light housing (slightly pitted), also, the chrome on the 1/4 vent windows were slightly pitted,(replaced with new ones). Complete new weather strip, new splash shields in the front fenders, new fender bolts, door hinge repair kit since the doors were off the car. A new white GT lower strip was also ordered. The trunk, hood and door jambs have been refinished, new sill plates. On the interior, we replaced the console and glove box door with new wood grain kit. New interior fastener kit, some screws, instrument cluster plastic chrome panel, hooks, door end seals all totaling approx. $2,607.86 just in parts. Taking several months to block, prime and refinish this Pony, as you can see it now posses that perfect laser straight body achieving that fresh look. Reassembled, the car under went wet sanding and buffing. Fresh oil change, zinc additive, new gaskets on the entire engine, refinished factory exhaust manifolds, new vacuum hoses, spark plug wires, thermostat, radiator cap. The results are remarkable on this beautifully restored rare, limited production GT K-Code Fast Back. The car comes with some owner history, orig. Buck Tag, all the receipts of the recent work, over and add'l $11,000 was spent. Now, highly detailed, with complete new paint, new interior, show quality engine bay which is correct, new chrome, bright work, stainless & emblems. The only thing left to do are the Red Line tires to make this 66 Fastback K-Code complete! Great investment, #2 condition car. She's a beauty, don't miss out..., $54,900 ,, Advertiser Since 1996
