DIANNE HASEMEYER ESTELLA –1966 MUSTANG DELUXE CONVERTIBLE
MEMBERS OF THE STANG MAG FAMILY ARE MORE PASSIONATE ABOUT FUN AND INCLUSION THAN THEY ARE THEIR CARS AND THAT SAYS A LOT!
SHE HAS BEEN IN THE FAMILY HER WHOLE LIFE AND HAS ONLY 58K MILES.
I met Daniel Ramey at a Beltway Mustang show and won my spot with STANG Magazine in their Carlisle Ford Nationals display. Needless to say I wasn’t sure what to expect being that I didn’t know the people attending and was going by myself.
Her name is Estella, the 66 Convertible. She is Ivy Green with White Parchment Top. Her interior is Pony Ivy Gold and Parchment. This is an original San Jose built car that my uncle bought new in 66. She has been in the family her whole life and has only 58K miles.
Living in snow country in far Northern California, she is a summer only vehicle and is stored away from all weather in the winter so she is truly a California rust free car. I had her repainted a couple years ago in her original color by a local auto restoration shop. Interior has been replaced with the original colors.
If you asked me if I thought I’d be writing an article for STANG Magazine for my car this time last year I would’ve said no. If you asked me if I would be writing it about a different car than the 2005 Roush Mustang I had I would’ve said hell no. I loved that car but acquiring this one reinvigorated my passion for car shows and events!
She has minimal modifications. My goal is to restore her back like new. I have rebuilt the 289 original motor, all serial numbers match. She also has the original C4 auto transmission.
The STANG Mag family welcomed me in from the very start and made me feel like one of their own!
My goal is to make her like new.
Members of the STANG Mag family are more passionate about fun and inclusion than they are their cars and that says a lot! I can’t wait to see what’s to come in 2022!
