Funny, these '71 and later are some of my least favorite Mustangs.
I didn't hesitate to add this model, though. AA did a really nice job on these Mach 1s.
I like the look of this car but only in Mach I trim.
I loved the car too. I vividly remember picking up my '71 Mach 1 429 SCJ Ram Air, with 4 speed Hurst shifter in March, 1971. I burned the rear tires off it in two weeks. I was a terror on Woodward Avenue.
Nah, it didn't have personalized plates. They didn't exist then. That's just me foolin' around with Photoshop.
I really like the look of all these '71's ! Yeah, my view is perhaps the next evolution possibly should have been a somewhat leaner and slimmed down Mustang, rather than the somewhat uninspiring, overly-downsized and de-fanged Mustang II. Mustang did get back on track however and is currently a terrific modern musclecar.
That has to be one of the cars you wish you still had. But now it would be parked in the living room with a velvet rope around it.
I agree with Jack that this generation Mustang only looks good as Mach 1s. Marty I love your photo shopped plates.
