When Ford introduced the Mustang sports coupé part way through the 1964 season, they created a new class of car almost overnight, catching the rest of the US auto industry off guard. It was the Brainchild of Lee Iacocca - subsequent savior of the Chrysler Corporation – the Mustang is one of the most remarkable automotive success stories of modern times and arguably the pinnacle of his long career with Ford. Aimed at the affluent young, for whom a car was as much a lifestyle statement as means of transport, the Mustang succeeded brilliantly, achieving sales in excess of a quarter million by the end of 1964. This remarkable debut was followed by a staggering 524,791 sales in 1965
The Mustang was successful because it had broad appeal that extended beyond the target market thanks to a great value-for-money package combining sporty looks, decent economy and brisk performance. They were available in a wide array of specifications, from six-cylinder 'economy' to V8-powered luxury. Customers were given an extensive range of factory options, with the result that seldom are two Mustangs identical.
The Mustang was enlarged and restyled for 1969 and again for 1971. The 1971 resulted in a car lower, longer and wider than before. The next Mustang, introduced for 1974, would be a much smaller car with no convertible option.
