The Worst Years Of The Mustang

The Mustang II is supported by most Mustang enthusiasts as the worst of the line. By 1974, pollution controls and gas mileage concerns were destroying the previous generation of classical Hot Rods. Horsepower has always been a thing of the past, and the Mustang became a small state in order to survive this difficult time. The Mustang II two styles body with a two-door hard top, and a Pinto-like hatch. There was no convertibles in this year.
The car had two engines available: a 4-cylinder engine with only 88 horsepower, and a German-built 171 ci 2.8L V-6 rated at 105 hp. In 1975, Ford again the 302 cubic-inch small block eight to the Mustang II, but with only 122 hp. Compare that in 2005, the model is up to 300 hp.
The Mustang II was smaller than the 1960-version, but with a weight of 3000 pounds and a meager 88 horsepower meant a very slow trip. Fortunately, the very popular 2005 Mustang as already mentioned has much more power.
The Mustang Ghia was the Ford Mustang that included luxury deluxe seat belts, digital clock, vinyl seats and door trim, door courtesy lights, rear ashtrays, remote outside mirrors, hard brake boot, pin stripes and a vinyl roof. Why someone as a vinyl roof of a luxury is not known to this day. Maintenance for a vinyl-top can be a pain as all persons in possession will be found there.
The 1970 was a terrible time indeed for the Mustangs, but in 1980 & 39; would prefer to see a return to power. The current model of the Mustang is not only the most popular sports cars on the market, it& 39;s doing well the original Mustang, with its 300 horsepower and great looks.
