Looking for a car to match his personality—which he describes as “aggressively way too loud”—Nathan Cali heeded the call of the Ford Mustang’s V8 siren song. His first was a 1966 that he bought for $1,500 when he was 15 years old. As Nathan puts it, “It was a bad idea. But it didn’t matter to me, because I owned it, I loved it, and it became a part of me.” He spent a few years with the ’66, repairing some aspect of it every other week—“four of five days of pure joy followed by four or five of pure frustration”—until he found filmmaking and took a break from wrenching on Mustangs. Eventually the desire for another one took hold, and Nathan set out to find a ’65 Fastback.
