Ford Mustang
The famous Ford Mustang manufactured by the Ford Motor Company has had quite a history since the first pony car in 1964. Ford car lovers hate this, initially based on the Ford Falcon, a compact car of the 60s. The first production began in Michigan back on the 9th of March, 1964. The Mustang did not get introduced to the public until 17 April 1964 at the New York World's Fair.
The Ford Mustang was the most successful launch since the Model A. Of course name came from the World War II P-51 Mustang Fighter Plane. It was first suggested by executive stylist John Najjar who was a big fan of the fighter planes. Turned out to be a great name for the “pony car” class.
The “pony car” class started the American sports car with long hoods and short rear deck sedans. All the car manufactures jumped on board with their own very successful sport cars. GM with the Camaro, AMC came out with the Javelin and Chrysler rebuilt the Barracuda.
Ford kept building the Mustang heavier and larger every year. The Mustang fans kept after Ford to move its design back to the concept of the 1964 “pony car”.
The Ford Mustang has been in none stop production for 40 years and has seen 5 generations of the “pony cars” since 1964.
- First generation (1964–1973)
- Second generation (1974–1978)
- Third generation (1979–1993)
- Fourth generation (1994–2004)
- Fifth generation (2005–2009)
The model car manufactures have kept pace over the years for the model car collectors. The “pony cars” make a nice addition to any modeler’s collection.
