A Brief History of The 1st Generation Ford Mustang
The Mustang is a automobile model that was manufactured by the Ford Motor Company. The first generation Mustangs are the most popular and collectible of all Mustangs. The Ford Motor Company retooled the failing Ford Falcon into the first Mustang. The Ford Falcon had been a big success for Ford at first, but had to be phased out as sales dropped. This is where the Mustang came in.
A day that will live in classic car history, March 9, 1964. The Ford Mustang was born and it grabbed the attention of that generation and it was very popular. Since that time, the Mustang aim has become synonymous with American values as apple pie and Lee Greenwood. Introduced to the world at the New York World's Fair on April 17, 1964, it became Ford's most successful model launch since the model A! The Ford Mustang is the only original pony car to maintain continuous production from its beginning until now. There is still high demand for the Mustang, even in this economy.
A pony car is an economy two door car with a big engine, starting with the Mustang. A pony car is a compact highly stylized car that was very sporty. The concept was inspired by the 1964 Ford Mustang. This car had a long hood and a short deck and a big motor. It was considered very youthful. The 1964 Mustang was the blueprint for future pony cars to come. Because of the rise of this extremely popular car, competitors began coming out with their own versions to this look. Many cars came out of this period of automotive history such as the Camaro, Barracuda, Javelin, Firebird, Cougar, Challenger, and later the foreign-made Toyota Celica.
I will never forget the first car that I had as a teenager. It was the last member of the first-generation Mustangs. It was the 1973 Ford Mustang Mach 1 and it was beautiful. I don't know why my dad let me have the car, but he did. I had the time of my life in those years and like a brand burned into the side of a farm animal, my soul has been branded with a hot brand known as the Mustang.
I remember the days when I was a teenager and driving around in the 73 Mustang that my father gave me on my 16th birthday. It wasn't new but it seemed like it to me at the time. With new-found freedom, and a part of muscle car history, I was proud to own that old Mustang. The girls came and went at my love for the Ford Mustang never left my heart. Unfortunately in 1989, I sold that old car. It's a many years of wear and tear from my wild teenage years. Today, I wished I had taken a little better care of that old classic muscle car. I guess it is kind of like the kids from the 1950s that had their Mickey Mantle baseball card thrown out by their mother, except that did this to myself. I haven't quite seen a 1973 Mustang that looks exactly like mine, but that won't stop me from looking. The car is forever in my heart. - 21396
