This 1967 Ford Mustang is a wonderful 2 door hardtop that is sure to make for a super fun summer cruiser. In the 1967 model year, the Ford Mustang was facing a bit of a turning point. See, from its initial debut in the middle of 1964 through 1966, the Mustang was targeted at the younger generation who were seeking a fun and sporty car, all for a modest price tag. In turn, in its first three years, the Mustang was a smash hit for the Ford Motor Company and the Mustang faced virtually no competition from competitors in the category that the Mustang created, the Pony Car. By 1967 however, Ford's contemporaries had begun catching up with the releases of the Camaro, the Firebird, and even its new FoMoCo sibling, the Cougar. Due to this rising competition, Ford tasked the Mustang's engineers and designers with creating a new '67 Mustang that had to appeal to an even wider audience. Not only did the 1967 Mustang have to remain affordable, it also had to be both more powerful and more luxurious, which is exactly what they did. On September 30, 1966, Ford introduced its brand new 1967 Ford Mustang. The new-look '67 Mustang retained some of the original flavor of the original stylings of the mid-year '64-'66 Mustangs, but it featured several style updates that made it look like a bigger and better car. Up front, the grilles were enlarged to provide for better air flow to the engines. Down the sides, the '67 Mustangs had received more pronounced body lines and larger faux side scoops that together gave the new Mustang a more dramatic and more imposing side profile. Perhaps the most obvious exterior change to the 1967 Mustang was the complete redesign of the taillights that were now inwardly concave look that seemed to make the Mustang look meaner and more powerful. Even the interiors were spruced up for a more luxurious feel! Ford did away with the more basic-looking Rally-Pac in 1967 and replaced it with a more modern and upscale looking instrument cluster. Further elevating the interiors of the '67 Mustangs was the addition of additional interior brightwork that gave off a more ritzy look inside. This particular 1967 Mustang comes to us from a single family that owned and cared for the car for a very long time.
