- People have been driving and enjoying the Ford Mustang for over 55 years. In this video, we start from the initial concept of the Ford Mustang and end with what the future may hold for the original "Pony Car." Who was responsible for the design? What were the major changes throughout the years? I answer these questions and more in this history of the Mustang video.

Happy birthday Mustang,.. two weeks away now in 2023 !
Got my first mustang last week, such a great car
Congratulations 😀
Ford Mustangs are beautifully designed, that when you build them right and take care of them, they’ll run for 100 years or longer, just like a family.
When I think of the Ford Mustang I see the 1967 green fastback of Steve McQueen and that car chase with the Dodge charger no car can be more iconic. So this marathon epic of facts and figures which was presented with tremendous enthusiasm and terrific knowledge made for fascinating viewing but the one-note delivery became a challenge to sit through and the long middle sections were somewhat dull mostly because the Mustangs of the era were dull cars compared to the glory years. Here in the UK you only see a Ford mustang on very rare occasions but for me, an ultra-romantic car fan the 1967 McQueen mustang will always be among the greatest of all cars a true great. This video had some fabulous old ads and publicity stills so I will come back to this for a more serious study and break the video down into separate generations. This Kevin Auto channel production may have rough edges but I found the Knowledge on offer very impressive.
The 2020 GT500 is a traditional cross plane crank V8. It's the GT350 that has the flat plane crank. Both are 5.2L
Absolutely outstanding, informative, excellent, educational, enjoyable, delightful, relaxing. Thank you. 👍🏻😉👍🏻😉🙏🏻🇺🇸🙏🏻🇺🇸🙏🏻👍🏻😉🇺🇸🙏🏻🇺🇸
Sumed all wha I wanted to say in one sentence
Excellent video, thanks for taking the time to post.
Awesome vid man. Learned so much
great video!
Minor correction: The '71 did grow slightly and considerably heavier, but it was hardly "fat and lazy." The growth was due to provisions made to handle larger, more powerful engines. This was because it was designed amidst the muscle car wars and would comfortably accomodate any engine Ford could throw in it (unlike previous Mustangs). So it was designed to be faster and better than any version before it, had the oil embargo not reared its ugly head and killed off performance cars in America. It was a victim of unfortunate timing, but was architecturally the most superior Mustang design to that point.
1971 Boss 351, I think the quickest 1/4 mile, not fat, and lazy.
To me the 60s mustang's and 99 to 04 are the best looking
U forgot the p-51 Mustang
Fantastic video! Appreciate it! 👍
Great video!
I love my New Edge. Always liked the 64.5 Mustang.
Good video. Keep it up!
Thanks!
I would love to get a RHD mustang
Cool video 🐎🚗🔧🇺🇸💪👊
Awesoooooooooooooooooooooooooome!!!!!!!!!!!!
The only good thing about the Mustang II was it was featured in Charlie's Angels. 😂
8:33 1968 Fastback is the Greatest Mustang GT Ever.
I’ll second that
@@skiddlyd.244 Touche' (smile)
"Fat and Lazy" ? Bite your tongue! My 1973 Mach 1 with it's 351 Cleveland waxed a 1985 Vette at Bandimere drag strip in 1985.
@ CowboyUp1371
I agree with your love for the early ones but as the owner of a 1966 Fastback, I guess that I'm a little biased. I no longer have it since in late May of 1968, I traded it for a 1968 Oldsmobile which had more power, more weight and more room but less sex appeal.
Once the Mustang increased in size and the style changed, I lost interest in them.
Nice video by the way and thank you for the information.
Ok…? Almost everything you just stated is a negative. Why bother comment?? You traded your car in for a higher HP, positive, but higher weight. Then less sex appeal. If you think the mustang is “big” in size in this day and age I dont even want to know what your driving now..
The 71-73 is neither fat or lazy. It weight less than the new mustangs today. Also fit 305 tires in the rear without modifications which is nice 👍🏽
To be fair to all generations to the Mustang you must point out some of the things those cars did right
1st Generation: everything was nice about it
2nd Generation (Mustang II): Performance was miserable, but I like the styling (and, I know this would've totally ruined the Mustang's purpose, though I wonder what it would've looked like as a wagon)
3rd Generation (Fox body): Again styling, though performance was also good enough
4th Generation: Again, good performance, though styling to me was interesting (to say the least)
5th Generation: Finally, back to its roots. A very amazing car through and through
6th Generation: Amazing car, though it seems the car is starting to drift from its retro styling. I would also like to criticize Ford for trying to make a unique, bold car into a world car by pitching it's name to an electric crossover (no problems with the Mach-E, but it really seems sellout-ish to me)
Totally agree. I'm interested to see what the 7th Gen will bring to the table and what will be missing (v8 performance). I miss the not too distant days of the simple v8.
@@KevinsAutoChannel And I forgot to mention, awesome video
honestly in my opinion (and I really don’t mean anything bad or mean - just criticism) the Mach-E is a bit of a disgrace to the Mustang name! Just look back into when it came out. Does it show any semblance at all other than the basic headlights? Not really! I think it might have done better if they changed the name, because it just makes me cringe sometimes :(
The 1967 / 68 GT Fastback is the Greatest Mustang.
Was the '71 Boss 351 not one of the fastest, if not the fastest production mustangs made up to that point? Hardly fat and lazy if you ask me.
New mustang’s are hideous compared to the old 60’s mustangs.
The first Mustangs were pretty like a women and strong like a man. The new Mustangs look like Bullies.
This phrase goes for sol the mustangs from 1971 to 2004
Look how they masacred My boy
Mustangs ended in 2014. After that they became something else. Bigger outside, smaller cabin. No thanks..😮
