Vehicle Description
For the first time since its launch, the car faced some serious
competition. This resulted in Ford evaluating the Mustang's
strengths and weaknesses. In addition to the Pontiac's Firebird,
Mercury's Cougar, and Plymouth's Barracuda, Chevrolet had plans to
roll out their new Chevy Camaro muscle car. This resulted in Ford
duking it out with its competition by creating a more muscular and
powerful Ford Mustang. Feeling pressure from their competition,
Ford needed to make the Mustang more powerful so it could keep up
with its competitors. The answer came in the form of a larger car.
Although the wheelbase remained the same at 108 inches, the length
of the vehicle was increased by two inches resulting in 183.6
inches from front to back. The car also featured a front-suspension
track that was widened by 2.5 inches. The increased body size
allowed Ford to put their first big-block engine in a Mustang.
Additionally, the grille features a larger opening and the feature
lines on the side led to larger simulated air scoops. The
taillights were three vertical lenses on each side of a concave
panel and the gas cap was located in the center of the panel. This
particular Mustang that we have for sale is in exceptional
condition. The car has had One Owner for its whole life, and has
been extremely well maintained. She is a �C' code model which means
the car is equipped with a 289 V8 engine from the factory. The car
not only looks amazing, but runs & drives even better. For more
