from 71 until 82 the Pony did not interest me at all. I still remember the ad campaign i.e. The Boss is Back for the 82gt. Oh it had a whopping 157hp at the crank

For me honestly I don't think the Mustang came back to where it should be until the 03/04 Mach 1 and Cobra. Then in 05' they really got it right.

To be honest, i couldn't stand any mustang after the '69 model, but the '85 GT did spark something with me as a kid though. Loved how it had the blacked out 4 eyes, and blacked out center stripe on the hood, and the race like interior.
But as i grew up, i had no interest in mustangs at all, let alone own one, yet own two.
I turned over when my baby brother bought himself a used '85 GT back in '96, took me for a ride one night, and that is all it took. I knew i was gonna own that very car, and i did,. Then after seeing the '01 Bullitt, i thought that Ford found that perfect balance of this retro thing going on, but yet still modern with the hard edgy modern lines without going over board.

I think My favourite Mustang will always be a toss up between the 65 GT350, and the '70 Mach I. I did like pretty much all of them from the first one to the '71-'72 Mach I, and then again once the Fox bodies came out.

If I could pick any classic Stang other than a Boss 429 it would be a 69 Mach 1 with a 390.

With '70 probably being my favourite year, I would have to go with the 1970 Mach I "Twister Special" with 428CJ. That's one mean, rare machine!

Yeah and with only 96 made, they are pretty rare. Unfortunately they were made exclusively for the Kansas City Ford District dealers, so I'm pretty sure I won't be finding one of those anytime soon.
