While Ford was going through a difficult period, a certain Lee Iacocca, then an executive at the American giant, proposed a sports car concept that would shake up the automotive world. The idea was to design a car with character, affordable budget and which should seduce the youth of the 60s. The first Mustangs left the factory in 1964. A commercial success from the start, this car was first offered as a convertible and a coupe, then joined by the Fastback body from 1965. What can be said about this American car is that despite the 470,000 examples produced in 1967 alone, none of them are alike. Indeed, everything could be modified on this car, from the paint to the interior trim, including the rims, the engines and the gearboxes.
