Here's your chance to get your hands on the end of an era at an affordable price. The 1973 Ford Mustang was the last year for the first generation, and they didn't come any lower, wider, or longer. And so you can't beat a standout like this with an enhanced 351 V8 under the hood.
This is the shining example of the end on an era. And rather than be sad, this sunshine-friendly drop top is finished in such a sunny hue, it can't help but brighten your day. In fact, the factory-correct shade of medium yellow has been professionally repainted at least once in this car's lifetime, which gives it an added luster that the factory application never could. We can also say the same for all the bright trim around the wheels and windshield – it just has the look of a proper investment over the years. The '73 cars were all about the trim pieces that helped make these the longest cars of the first generation, so it's nice to see everything in place just as Ford intended it. You even have the iconic Mag wheels that give this pony some added period-correct flair.
With just the swipe of a finger the white electric folding roof comes down to reveal a great matching white interior. It's hard for a convertible to still look this fresh after all these decades, but that just tells you about the level of care and maintenance. It also helps that the bucket seats and dash appear to be newer pieces. You get a grippy three-spoke steering wheel, T-bar shifter, heat/defrost, and a clear set of factory gauges to insure a great classic motoring experience, but there's one upgrade that you're really going to love. The AM/FM/CD stereo is Bluetooth ready. That means the fun of modern tunes and modern business, and that is what will really make you enjoy this vintage droptop all the more.
As an H-code Mustang, this correctly has the 351 cubic-inch V8 under the hood. But more than just a great motor it has the right enhancements like an Edelbrock performance intake and Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor. The presentation looks nice with the shining air cleaner and bright blue valve covers. But dig a little deeper, and you'll see worthwhile investments in good maintenance in places like the newer hoses, wires, and radiator. On the road this Mustang is a great cruiser with features like the C4 three-speed automatic transmission, new shocks, power steering, and front disc brakes.
You're looking at a well-sorted vintage Mustang you can pick up for less than the price of a new ragtop. This pony is one of the best affordable classic companions you'll ever have. Call today!!!
