The Hurst Mustang performance package was offered for a short period through Ford dealerships. Inspired by the sporty handling of his own Mustang convertible, George Hurst conceived a dealer fit package consisting of a Hurst shifter, suspension, wheels, badging, vinyl stripes and performance engine components. The package was shipped to dealers who could order a 289 four speed Mustang along with some additional replacement parts from Shelby American to assemble the 335hp Hurst Mustang.
Unfortunately due to extensive labor involved installing the package, which included a special camshaft very few examples were assembled. By the time the first Hurst Mustangs were built the 1966 model year cars had hit the showroom floor so the Hurst engines were painted in the new Ford corporate blue in order to appear current to buyers.
This particular example is the only known surviving 1965 Hurst Mustang and features both heater and radio delete options, making it exceptionally rare. This is entirely fictional but we really didn't want to build yet another GT350 clone.
