Description of Ford Mustang "The first-generation Ford Mustang was manufactured by the Ford Motor Company from April 1964 until 1973. The introduction of the Mustang created a new class of automobile known as the pony car. The Mustang’s styling, with its long hood and short deck, proved wildly popular and inspired a host of imitators. It was initially introduced as a hardtop and convertible with the fastback version put on sale the following year. At the time of its introduction, the Mustang, sharing its underpinnings with the Falcon, was slotted into a compact car segment.” .

There was one commercial from the late 60's. A Shelby cobra 427 was sitting behind a billboard sign, directly you heard, "beep, beep" and a roadrunner come racing by. Then came a snakes "Hiss" a snakes tongue slithered. Cobra took off, roadrunner went over a hill, the cobra gave chase, at this point you had to use your imagination, you heard a bird beep, then squawk, and feathers were floating up int he air. Then the Cobra comes flying up the other side of the hill with feathers in its grill.

Funny that they say "The 1970 Maverick is 1995". I'm part of Gen X and in 1995 when I was 21, these Mavericks were what we were buying as our first cars. These were second hand cars along with all the other cars of the late 1960's and early 1970's when i first started driving. My sister had a 4-door Mercury Comet and I had a 1972 Cutlass. Good times!

jud dude Yeah for real. That 302 was squeezed in there big time. Shock tower modifications would have had to have been made to get a 351 in. Pretty much a redesign of the engine bay. Why do all that when at the time you could massage that good ole reliable 302 to around 275 hp with shelf parts.

@willythewave 5 жыл бұрын

Mine had a 302 with headers, imagine squeezing those things in and changing plugs. lol They had dents beat in them to make them fit. A 351 Cleveland was a whole nother ballpark compared to the Windsors. Now THAT would have required some serious modifications. I sure do miss my 71 Maverick Grabber, I would gladly go through the nightmare of changing plugs again. :( I had a 70 6 cylinder too and believe it or not it was a tire burner too. Factory geared really low for some reason. The 6 cylinder was an automatic, the 302 was a 3 speed stick, I changed to a 4 speed. I loved them both. With wide tires wheel hop was so bad you`d think it would tear the rear end out, and probably would have, traction bars were a necessity. The 302 stock would pull the drivers side front wheel off the ground about an inch or two on a hard launch just with the right tire/traction bar combo. They were light short wheel base cars that weren`t hard to turn into beasts. I named mine " Beast of Burden" ( the song by the Rolling Stones) and blasted that and Molly Hatchet`s "Dreams I`ll Never See from the 8 track tape player. LOL :)

@willythewave 5 жыл бұрын

Now that`s the kind of story from experience I like to hear! Yes the 6 cylinder was a 250, it wAs a torquey little indestructable bear. It`s been a pleasure talking to someone that had similar experiences as me. :) BTW I think the three speed manual, changed to a top loader four speed made a tremendous difference in mine, it would still pull the left front wheel off the ground even with the three speed. Mine was just stock (210 hp for the day). I don`t know what it was about them, just a little light car with a V8 I guess. I also had a 65 Dodge Dart GT convertible with a tiny Commando? 270 V8 that would wipe any stock 350 Chevys ass of the mid 70`s even with 2nd gear missing from the 907 torqueflight. That little sucker had factory solid lift cam, 4 barrel and dual point distributor. I`ll never forget the smell of that thing starting it up to go to work before daylight.

Managed to rebuild it the first time, drove it home after the second. Simple to work on, had as much power as a 6cyl Mustang of the time (same chassis design, you could do Mustang-type mods on it). It's major failing was it was bad in crosswinds. Would love to have one now, except I'd have to garage it in the winter, as I'd treat it more like a "collector's car" rather than an everyday beater.

He took off in the Bird and came back the next morning with that nose crunched. Still drivable, but now it more closely matched his personality.

6:46 narrator claims you can get a "351 4 valve V8". Sure would have been ahead of its time! Marketing folks must have thought that 351-4V meant four valves instead of four venturi's.

I had a 1974 LTD with a low serial number. It had a several non-standard parts on it that were phased out later in the production run, and a few that were LTD only and not common with the Galaxie. Every time I went to NAPA and found out that they didn't have what I needed they'd say "Oh, that's one of Ford's BETTER IDEAS." I had to go to a dealer and order some things. Galaxies got the same C-6 transmission that other full sized cars and pickups had. My LTD had a Borg-Warner Cruise-O-Matic and a "W-E-R" rear end. Had to wait a week for a stinking brake line once!

ScreamingGoat43 - They weren't really that much bigger than today's Dodge Charger... T-Bird: 115" WB on the 2-dr; 117" on the 4-dr, with lengths being 212.5" for both. Charger is 120.2" WB, and a length of 198-201". Being a LOWER design makes them look bigger. If you haven't been there yet, here's an AWESOME source: oldcarbrochures.com/

I miss my Maverick. Candy apple red, 3-on-the-tree, no power steering, brown plaid cloth and vinyl upholstery, but it did have after market air conditioning. Comfortable riding car and it looked great.

I had a Maverick and when it was time to go to the Ford dealer in the sky , I was asked to donate the engine to the local automotive trade school because the engine ran so quiet and smooth. I remember showing it to my Dad and running it with a glass of water on the hood. Always loved Fords. 63 Galaxie 500 XL. , 63 German Taunus , 72 and 74 Torino. The Military Police in Berlin , Germany all used German Fords , and the Intelligence people all used specially modified Fairlanes and Galaxies when patrolling East Berlin and the Autobahn.I personally drove one of those supercharged , armored Galaxies across Freedom Bridge (same one in Bridge Of Spies w/Tom Hanks) It received a few bulletholes from our Russian "allies" during the time of the Wall. Good Times.

My favorite Mustang is the 67 Shelby GT500. My sister and husband bought one new in 67 It had the rare engine option 427 daul 4 barrel Holley s I was 10 the 1st time I rode in it. Years later I became a Shelby dealer as a result of that first ride I had 2 Shelby's, a Cobra 427 S/C and 2007 Shelby Mustang CS. Loved them both.

Do a comparison to make you feel better. The base Maverick had a 100hp inline 6 with no glove box, no power steering, and sold for $12k in today’s money. Your Spark has the same horsepower, gets better gas mileage and comes with better crash safety and amenities like AC, power steering and a radio.
