The Appeal
The Ford Mustang is nothing short of an enduring legend. Since 1965, it’s been a household name - one of the biggest in motoring, and its crucial identity of big powerplants, impressive handling and long-nosed form have remained remarkably in line throughout the brand name’s venerable history.
This example, from the 6th generation of the Mustang, is a remarkable one - beautifully presented with a cossetting routine of maintenance and servicing keeping it at its best. It’s rare we see one of these modern American classics in superb condition.
