1965: the unexpected… Mustang hits the starting line full bore!
Here's Ford's new kind of car…and no car ever hit the road quite so ready
for action. Mustang has a long, long list of goodies no, not six months or
a year after introduction. Let's check down that list:
1.Three V-8’s, from the supersmooth 161-h.p. version with hydraulic
lifters through a strong 210-hp two-barrel, right up to the solid
lifter-header exhaust, high-performance 271-hp stormer. And that’s not the
end: the whole Cobra kit bolt-on array is available. (You want the
four-Weber 313 horse wild one? Just let us know.)
2.Transmissions? The V-8 choice starts with the all-synchro 3-speed
manual. Or four-on-the-floor. Or Cruise-O-Matic Drive. All with floor
shifts.
3.What else? A special handling package (included with high-performance
V-8’s) that makes the Mustang solid as a Pullman car on the corners. A
Rally Rac that combines tach and clock with sweep-second hand. And, just
to show we’re versatile, air conditioning, a six-cylinder saver, power
steering and all the other dolce vita items.
We hope we're not immodest, but the Mustang four-seater starts life with
the kind of equipment and options most cars take years to come by. And the
kind of rock solid handling. And the toughness and durability it takes to
build a going competition machine.
Come down to your Ford Dealer's and take a long, careful look. If we’ve
skipped anything that would make your heart glad we’d like to hear about
it – but what could it be?
