1967 Ford Mustang

The first-generation Ford Mustang ran from the 1965 model year through 1973 on a chassis derived from the Ford Falcon compact. Ford unveiled the car on April 17, 1964 at the New York World's Fair, and the early "1964½" cars were all stamped and titled as 1965 models. The line launched with a 170 cu in (2.8L) Thriftpower inline-six and a 260 cu in (4.3L) Windsor V8, then quickly standardized the 200 cu in (3.3L) six and the 289 cu in (4.7L) Windsor. A 1967 restyle widened the engine bay for the 390 cu in (6.4L) FE big-block, and 1968 brought the 302 cu in (5.0L) Windsor and the 428 Cobra Jet. The 1969 restyle introduced the Mach 1, the Trans-Am Boss 302, the NASCAR-homologation Boss 429, and the Grande luxury hardtop. Bodies grew through 1971-1973, the final first-generation years. Body styles were the hardtop coupe, the 2+2 fastback, and the convertible. All horsepower figures for this era are SAE gross.
