Classic Car Overview
This 2014 Ford Mustang is a gorgeous, low-miles time capsule with a standout look! On April 17, 1964, the Ford Motor Company introduced its latest automobile, the Mustang, to the world at the New York Worlds Fair. The idea for the Mustang is largely attributed to Ford executive Lee Iacocca with the vision of the Mustang being a sporty, youth oriented car with a long hood, short deck, and a modest price tag. While hopes were high that the Mustang would be a success for Ford, few could have foreseen the grand slam that the Mustang would become in the years and decades to come. Not only did the Mustang launch an entirely new genre of muscle cars known as Pony Cars, the Mustang would go on as one of the most successful vehicles in the history of Ford. As the years progressed, so did the Mustang. In the first decade or so, the Mustang underwent modest styling changes and Ford kept raising the bar for the Mustangs performance by adding bigger and bigger engine options through the early 70s. By the mid-70s, and in a period of higher gas prices and fuel shortages, the demand for a more economical Mustang rose and Ford released the more fuel efficient Mustang II for the 1974 model year. In the late 70s, Ford again completely redesigned the Mustang when it released the so-called Foxbody Mustangs, a model that would begin to put some performance back into Fords Pony Car. After another redesign in the 90s, Ford returned the Mustangs design elements to its roots returning back to a first generation Mustang inspired design. The front end treatment, from the headlights to the grilles, looked like those very first Mustangs. In the rear, the taillights looked similar to the original Mustangs, albeit more futuristic, retaining the triple-lens design on each side. It was also during this period that Ford brought back packages and nameplates from the first generation run of Mustangs including the GT and GT-H, Boss 302, Cobra Jet, Bullit, California Special, and Shelby. These style changes and teases of nostalgia seemed to prove a massive sales success for the Mustang with Ford selling over 1 million units of the new-look Mustang. This particular example comes to us as an ultra low-miles example with less than 90 delivery miles on the odometer, making it a fantastic addition to any Mustang-lovers collection. Powering this 14 Mustang is an electronically fuel injected 3.7 Liter V6 engine that was said to have produced 305 horsepower when new.
