There are only six old Mustangs in the world, the 1970 Ford Mustang convertible

When you see the photo of this car, you might say, isn’t this an old Ford Mustang convertible? What's so rare about "Mustang"? Believe me, maybe, maybe you won't see any sales information on this kind of "old Mustang" for a few years, because it is rare enough and rare enough.

Only six units were produced. I think most people will never see it on the street, because these cars are basically hidden in garages by collectors. In the photo This is a 1970 Ford Mustang GT 500 built by Shelby, which was modified from the convertible version.

Between 1969 and 1970, Ford produced only 335 GT500 convertibles, and only six cars used the yellow paint called "Grabber Yellow".

There is another interesting thing about this car. These six cars were all 1969 models, but due to sales and other reasons, they were not sold, so Ford used new ones internally for them ( VIN) vehicle identification number, and these cars were subsequently sold as new models in 1970.

Compared with the 1969 model, the 1970 model had obvious changes in appearance. There was an additional spoiler directly under the front of the car and two black decorative stripes on the hood. Of course there are other emissions-related changes, such as improved carburetors.

Up to now, we have seen a lot of Shelby-modified Ford Mustang GT500s, but they only have a two-door hardtop sports car version, and no convertible version. This car is A convertible, that's what collectors want.

The yellow body is paired with a white convertible soft top and a glass rear window that was originally ordered directly from the factory. However, the seller reminds that the rearview mirror adjustment switch on the driver's side of this car is broken, but I think this problem should be easily repaired.

Hidden under the hood is a Shelby-modified 428 Cobra Jet V8 engine with a maximum power of 355 horsepower. This power is passed through a three-speed Cruise-O- Matic automatic transmission is transmitted to the rear wheels.

In the car, most visible parts are wrapped in black leather in the same American style. The three-spoke steering wheel has the familiar Shelby "Cobra" logo, and 140 miles (140 miles) on the back. (approximately 225 km/h). The speedometer at the bottom of the watch and the multimedia system are quite simple. After all, this is a car that is almost 50 years old. The center console uses Clarion’s main unit and Pioneer’s Eight speakers.

The car has a five-digit mileage of 93,000 miles (approximately 150,000 kilometers), but the total mileage is unknown.

This sale comes with a lot of supporting documents, including the dealer's invoice at the time. In the invoice we can see that the sales price of the car is $5,425.29. The car also comes with the factory order and owner's manual at the time. .

As of now, the highest bid for this car in the Internet auction is $62,500, but there are still a few days before the end of the auction.

Such a rare and classic Ford Mustang convertible represents that period of history and the glory days of American muscle cars at that time. I believe it will be welcomed by wealthy car collectors in a few days. Come home and become a new addition to your garage collection.
