Ford Mustang
When Pontiac introduced the first muscle car in the early 60s, the
trend in the industry was soon geared towards manufacturing of high
performance vehicles. Other auto brands followed Pontiac and created
their own muscle cars and performance vehicles. Ford introduced in
1964, Ford Mustang, its smaller version of the muscle car, which used a
compact passenger car chassis. It was called a pony car, a baby muscle
car. Although the Ford Mustang first appeared in 1964, it was regarded
as the 1965 Ford model.
Just like other trend-setting
automobiles throughout the history of cars, Ford Mustang models were
soon followed by other vehicle make. Other pony cars emerged such as
the Chevrolet Camaro, Mercury Cougar, AMC Javelin, Dodge Challenger and
even the Firebird, which is from Pontiac, the one that started the
muscle car trend. Among these pony cars, Ford Mustang proved to be the
most enduring vehicle. It is the only pony car that is still in
production, besting the Camaro and the Firebird, which only lasted
until 2002.
Ford Mustang and other pony cars became excellent alternative to the
famous muscle cars, especially for those who cannot afford their high
price. Ford Mustang cars were relatively lower in price, smaller and
lighter than the earlier muscle cars, making them more fun to drive.
Ford Mustangs were like sports car versions of regular Ford passenger
cars. They exhibit more driving abilities and with a few aftermarket
upgrades, these cars are potentially excellent racing cars.
Through the years, the Ford Mustang grew in size, in weight, in style
and in performance. The 1970s Ford Mustang were no longer based on the
compact Falcon but on the mid-size Ford Fairlane/ Mercury Comet
platform. In 1982, Ford Mustang was reintroduced as the high
performance Mustang GT. This paved the way to a new era of muscle car.
It came with a 5L V8 engine, four speed transmission, taut suspension
and aggressive tires that speak of its over-all tough and sporty
character. Ford Mustang still went though many changes through the
years and today the legend lives on, still promising of more successful
years in the auto world.
