    admin Posted on

    The 1966 Ford Mustang Convertible is part of the first generation of Mustangs, one of the most iconic car lines in American automotive history. This convertible version offered a perfect blend of sporty style and open-air driving freedom. It featured a classic design with bold lines, the signature grille, and the famous galloping horse emblem.

    The 1966 Mustang Convertible came with engine options ranging from the 200 cubic inch (3.3L) inline-six to more powerful V8s like the 289 cubic inch (4.7L) engine, providing power outputs from 120 to over 200 horsepower, delivering flexible and robust performance. The interior was designed with attention to detail and comfort, offering amenities such as leather-upholstered seats and a user-friendly dashboard. This car was loved for its smooth handling and standout style, making it a true symbol of the 1960s.

    Carbon fiber is the choice for high performance driveline applications due to its high strength and light weight, but it is also more forgiving than steel or aluminum, which serves to reduce driveline harshness, improving the overall level of refinement of the vehicle and making it more enjoyable to drive.

    All Revology Mustangs and Shelby GTs are equipped with a Ford 8.8″ rear end and Traction-Lok limited slip differential for quiet operation with superior durability. Unlike aftermarket gear sets, the 3.31 (A/T) and 3.73 (M/T) gear sets are Ford engineered and built at Ford’s Sterling Axle plant. Heavy duty 31-spline axles reliably transfer the car’s prodigious power to the pavement.
