Vehicle Description
This is the kind of classic we're all on the lookout for. It's a
one-owner and highly documented 1972 Ford Mustang Convertible. But
a drop-top like this was built to be enjoyed, and so it has been
given the right investments along the way - including extra power
out of the V8.
The '72 Mustang was built to be a true cruiser. It has a long front
end, a European-like short rear deck, and a well-creased body line
that runs from the headlight through the door. You can see all of
this so well because a one-owner car is a kind that gets treated
correctly. That's why the factory-correct Medium Bright Yellow
paint is not only believed to be largely original, but also retains
a good gloss. And the form-fitting chrome bumpers still have the
right shine of distinction. But when you own a car for nearly a
half-century you're also going to make the right investments and
improvements. It now has a touch of extra sporty style with Mag 500
wheels (the factory wheel covers come with the sale, too,) and the
replacement hood that now has sporty scoops. There's also a newer
black convertible top with a glass rear window. And that's what's
at the heart of this pony car. It keeps a ton of classic
originality, and it also makes sure to be one you'll love taking
out on the road today.
If you like the way the black top looks against the yellow paint,
then you'll love powering the roof down to reveal the full black
interior. Just like the exterior, the inside of this Mustang stays
stock in the right places while also getting the right investments.
For example, your front bucket seats are more recently refinished.
You still have the classic pattern with bright trim inserts, but it
has a fresher feel that is what you really want in a driver's
classic. There are more upgrades for better cruising, like a cup
holder center console and an AM/FM digital tuner w/cassette. And if
you're a purist, you can remove the armrest and also re-install the
AM radio that comes with the sale.
The engine bay has a great story all on its own. A one-owner car
like this should have its original motor, but the Ford Racing valve
covers and air grabber tell you that this one is far from stock.
The consignor had the 302 cubic-inch V8 rebuilt at a professional
shop about 10k miles ago. It was done with an eye for power. So it
was stroked to 347ci, and now includes an Edelbrock four-barrel
carburetor, an Edelbrock Performer RPM intake, Flame Thrower
ignition, and headers feeding the dual exhaust. And while this was
born with an automatic transmission and power steering, it has also
been upgraded to front disc brakes to be a more confident
cruiser.
The sale comes with terrific paperwork, like the dealer invoice,
factory buildsheet, warranty card, service manuals, and maintenance
records. It all goes to prove that this is a distinct one-owner
drop-top that was made to hit the road right now. Call today!!!
