Wow! This is the original version I used to watch a lot as a kid. The updated release was good, too but this one is the actual version I remember! Thank you for uploading this!

I remember this video. My dad, brother, and I and now nephew have owned over 20 Mustangs ranging from a 65 fastback to a 17 convertible with 4, 6, and 8 cylinder engines including a Boss 302, Terminator, Coyotes, 3Vs, and Cyclone. They’re amazing cars and here’s to another 55 years!!!

celticsdude there were a couple of them along the way. I had forgotten about this comment. But I still love these cars just as much as ever. During all the pandemic stuff, it’s been a bit of relief and sanity to get behind the wheel and drive.

@@lightningblue648 My dad's first car was a '65 Mustang, and my mom once had a '79-'81 Mustang. To me, the best version hands down of it was the Fox body one.

Got my 66 mustang new. Lots of fun, with standard trans and 289 v8 2bbl. Sold it in 2001, with 98000 orig miles, pristine condition. Note in this video, they sag at the back. Very soft leaf springs, so mushy handling. Fixed very successfully the first year with cheap lifting leaf spring boosters from Woolworths to level the car and firm up the suspension! Funny to hear the ads about large trunk. Yes, if you travel without the spare! They could easily have made a well for vertical storage behind the tail light, but they chose to attach it horizontally, so it ate half the trunk space. One suitcase beside it, and that was it! Very poorly made. Within first 5 years, ignition switch fell apart while traveling, pot metal door lock housing fractured, (got a used one, and with tweezers, transplanted the cylinders from broken one to match my key), transmission bearing failed, the bushings pressed into the bracket that the pedals swing on fractured, so had to replace the bracket, killing my back. Rad top seam burst, trunk latch broke (found a used one, but no mustangs around, so got it off a wrecked 65 Caliente!) . They had no plastic front fender liners, so the wheels throw salt slush at the underside of the top panel, rusting it through quickly. Easy to work in engine compartment EXCEPT to replace heater hoses. All other cars had the heater hose brass nipple come thru the firewall, but in this car, the hose clamps are hidden between the heater box and the inside of firewall! But, fond memories! :)
