BEST MUSTANG OF ALL TIME!!?

  • Sponsors (?)


Best Mustang? mmmmm...I've had a bunch of 'em, and between the wife and I, we still have 4. But If I could pick one, and money wasn't an object, it would have to be a '67 Shelby GT500 fastback. Only year they came with factory dual quads. To this day I don't believe there has ever been a car with style, and lines like the '67 & '68 fastback Mustangs. Other than that......I LIKE 'EM All!!!!!!! :D
 
I steppin in late here! But I have to go with the original pony cars in 65-66. It's tough to step on any of the years between 65-70 to make the statement though! From there a 70 Hemi Cuda would do me just fine:)

It may be treachery but he does have a point. It's much easier to build a '67 and up Camaro than a '67 and up Mustang thanks to the fact that GM only used 2 basic platforms and engines (SBC, BBC). There are many times I wish the Mustang and the variety of engines had the interchangabilty that the Camaro does. Try building a 351C on a real budget vs. a SBC. Sure the Cleveland will ultimately make a ton more horsepower but it will cost comensurately more. That griping aside I wouldn't trade my Mustang for a Camaro or my Cleveland for a SBC, or BBC for that matter under any circumstance. Unless of course I could greatly profit from the venture, then have the funds to turn around and put back into another Mustang.
 
1st car was a 65 mustang 289 coupe, traded that in and 2 grand for a yellow BOSS 302 back in 1972, sold that car in 81. Finally got the guts and money to buy this car in 2003...hands down the BEST Mustang in Mustang history. Timeless body lines, with the BOSS 302 engine that took a Trans-Am championship.

My favorite mustang of all times would have to be the only GT 500 super snake 427. Over 500 hp and the good looks of the shelby gt500. My favorite obtainable mustang is the 1967 mustang coupe looks good as a classic stocker or a restomod.
 
The 1965 Coupe with the 200 and C4. It's classic, economic, and is what I consider "America's Car." Came out swinging with the red, white, and blue on the emblem, and looks stylish as hell! I love my '65.
 
My grandfather had restored a 64 1/2 mustang 289HO back in the early 80s and that is the car that turned me onto mustangs. If I really look at it, that style isn't really the most appealing, but there was something magical about it to me because of my history with one. When I turned 16, he would let me take it out for a few hours on Sat/Sun as long as I spent the hours it took to detail it out afterwards. Great memories.
