Ford Mustang Pt. 1, No Money, No Permission, Instant Success
Ford Mustang Pt. 1
In this episode I cover the first generation of the Ford Mustang, focusing on the underground development and lack of official approval for this car. Despite this, the Mustang would find instant success in the new market of young drivers looking for cheap, powerful, and customizable cars. Offering a wide variety of engine options as well as interior design choices, the Mustang would become an instant American staple. However, by the early 1970s, the Mustang had become a large car with even larger engines and was starting to drop in sales. The rest of the Mustang history will be covered in next week's episode, don't miss it!
