390 Equipped: 1969 Ford Mustang Mach I

Sitting Since The ’90s: 1974 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am 455

As the owner of a ’74 Firebird, I am biased in its favor, but it’s no long branch to go out on when I say that Pontiac handled the five-mile-per-hour bumper regulations better on the Firebird than any other… more»

493 Documented Miles! 1991 Ford Mustang LX

Reasonably Priced: 1966 Ford Mustang

Barn-Kept Bruiser: 1968 AMC Javelin

American Motors joined the increasingly crowded “pony car” field in 1968 with two entries. One was the Javelin, which went head-to-head with the others in the space. The second was the AMX, a 2-seat GT-style car (Javelin-based) that was… more»

Exceptional Driver: 1969 Ford Shelby Mustang GT350 Convertible Tribute

The problem with buying a Shelby Mustang is that even rough examples can be expensive. However, when you are talking about a 1969 GT350 Convertible presenting as nicely as our feature car, values easily climb into six-figure territory. That… more»

Do It For The Hobby: 1974 Mustang II

To say that nobody wants 1974-78 Mustangs is probably to exaggerate a bit, but most collectors, Mustangers or not, have little use for this generation. It’s a shame, really, as these cars sold in greater numbers than some in… more»

Running, Driving Project: 1973 Ford Mustang Sportsroof

It’s an anecdote that doesn’t deserve much space, but here’s the summary: During my junior year of high school, I made an academic bet with my dad and lost by a hair. He bet me I couldn’t earn a… more»

Container Find: 1968 Pontiac Firebird Convertible

Garages and barns are probably the two most popular hibernating places for cars, but another less-utilized option is a container, which has been home to this second-year Firebird for the last eight years.  The seller says he’s a lover… more»

Cheap 5-Speed Project: 1986 Ford Mustang GT Convertible

With Fox-Body Mustangs being strong performers in the classic market, finding an affordable project candidate is often challenging. However, this ’86 GT Convertible rides to the rescue as a driver-grade vehicle that would benefit from a cosmetic refresh. It… more»

Stored 40 Years! 1968 Plymouth Barracuda Fastback

The sporty Plymouth Barracuda had the misfortune of hitting the market 17 days before the Ford Mustang in 1964. The latter vehicle coined the term “pony car” to define the new market segment, and it buried the Barracuda in… more»

Bullitt No, Six Yes! 1968 Mustang Fastback

Go Bullitt if you must, but I’d rather see this potentially handsome 1968 Mustang Fastback restored to its showroom glory. Let other people chase faux movie fame. If you’re down with that, then perhaps check out this ad here… more»

New From Nose To Tail: 1965 Mustang 2+2

The typical Mustang 2+2 (fastback) of early vintage goes for around $40K (and climbing) when auctioned. That for a restored model or a decently preserved original. You’ve got to get there from somewhere, though, and in the case of… more»

Special Edition Pony: 2001 Ford Mustang GT Bullitt

It’s always rewarding for Ford fans anytime the brand offers a special edition Mustang, and even better when a great name is chosen for the occasion.  Moviegoers were treated to a crime film called Bullitt back in ’68 that… more»

One Owner: 1969 Ford Mustang Grande

Ford was on a serious path to diversification with its First Generation Mustang by 1969, which is understandable, because sales had dropped by 50% since the glory days of 1966. Buyers were spoiled for choice, with those seeking a… more»
