I've never been a big fan of the 71-73 Clydesdale.

Here's an interesting little fact that not many are aware of, but back when I had my '95 GTS I did a ton of research on them, and did you know that in 1995 you could order option 13T for a Cobra. It was a removeable hardtop for the convertible.
The Convertible Hardtop option, 13T, was listed in the 1994 Mustang option list. It was priced at $1545. However, the top wasnt made available until 1995 when the price was raised to $1825, still option 13T. These were very rare, and the idea was dropped due to complaints about the weight of the hardtop. Apparently it took men to remove it. Saleen converted one (# 95-0118) in association with Mustang Illustrated and gave it away to a reader. The only Saleen Cobra convertible with a removable hardtop ever made.
