1971 Ford Mustang - today's tempter

Third-gen muscle car

While the relatively delicate lines of the original Mustang won a lot of hearts over the decades, the rather brutish bulk of the third-generation cars has also won plenty of fans.

In a feature in the series, we commented: "The third Mustang incarnation, released September 1970, was a completely new car, As the Mustang began to show its age and Americans demanded more from their low-cost cars, Ford found a way to brighten the image of its ‘Pony’ while delivering a bigger dose of performance."

This example is running a premium High Output 351 V8, matched to a three-speed automatic transmission.

Located in Clifton Springs, Victoria, it’s on the market at $69,900.
