The late ’60s fastback Mustangs are my favorite.

A few weeks ago I was married (no more condolences please!) and I was fortunate enough to have as wedding cars the following;

1. 1968 Original Shelby GT500KR Fastback (green with 428)
2. 1970 Mach 1 Fastback (Candy Apple with 351)
3. 1967 Fastback GT (Gold w/black stripes)
4. 1964 and a half convertible having had a full bare metal restoration including white electric soft top, white interior and pink metallic color scheme. I know a pink Mussie sounds odd but this car is an absolute head turner and will be featured on the cover of Streetmachine in the coming months.

I know my life is now effectively over and I’ve just started a life sentence but let me tell you being in and out of those superb cars all day made it all worthwhile, and was absolutely the highlight of the day.

Sorry honey…

I think it’s sad that Australia missed out on the Mustang in the 1960s, and then the Camaro. It would have really sucked to be an Aussie teen in the 1960s.. such a limited choice.

The 1967 Shelby GT500
The (?) Ford 429 Boss Mustang
The 1999 Mustang Cobra R
and the New Gen GT500 / KR / Super Snake (541Kw one)

When I was a young boy many years ago I remember playing with a toy Ford Mustang car (cant remember which model ?) & to this day I still think this is one of the best designed cars of all time. This car is truely a cult classic & will always remain an icon in my mind.

Cheers !

The US had some good car designs in the 80s: 1982 Camaro, 1984 Corvette. From Ford there was the ’86 Taurus, and ’89 Thunderbird. SUVs and trucks: 1984 Jeep Cherokee, and 1980 Ford F-series – both classic designs that lasted 17 years each. 1988 Chevy/GMC pickups. And lastly, Chrysler introduced the minivan in 1983, a vehicle quite ahead of its time.

Not sure Mark ,personally I didnt like the 70s stuff they gradually got uglier and Uglier through the 80s ,then what didnt out of the US . Not their best period for design ,nor ours for that matter.

Challenger would be my pick too,even over the Camaro ,tough looking car !
