The Ford Mustang, with the prototypes initially called the Cougar, was a youth-oriented, affordable, compact car first suggested by Lee Iacocca. The long hood and short rear were similar to the Continental Mark II, and Gene Bordinat, vice president of design, was charged with developing the car. Styling proposals were solicited from all three design studios - Ford, Lincoln-Mercury and Advanced Design - and based on five prerequisites: the car must seat four, have bucket seats, have a floor-mounted shifter, weigh no more than 2,500 pounds and be less than 180-inches long, and cost less than $2,500.
The Ford team's proposal was the one selected for its European influences, youthful persona, and styling that evoked movement and imagination. The first Mustangs were built between 1964 and 1966, with 1967 ushering in a restyled body.
This 1966 Mustang GT Coupe wears a Signal Flare Red exterior with the optional black vinyl top and matching GT side stripes. Beneath the bonnet is an A-Code 289 cubic-inch V8 engine offering 255 horsepower and topped with a four-barrel carburetor and paired with a four-speed manual transmission. The red-center chrome-styled steel wheels are wrapped with whitewall tires. It has the correct rear GT valance with cutouts for the dual exhaust and the front grille with the driving lights. The black Deluxe Pony interior has a center console, a radio, four-place seatbelts, the Rally Pac dash cluster, bucket seats, and wood-grain applique appointments.By Daniel Vaughan | Oct 2022
