A legend on wheels, this first time in 1964 produced sports car, actually called 'pony car'. One of the first truly affordable fun cars with relatively little regard to the use of more than two people. It has well with over 400,000 cars, the highest ever achieved sales in the first year and its market leadership never really delivered. Why there is the Ford Mustang as Shelby GT also with two all over the car running, here mostly white stripes? Because Carol Shelby both here and at the AC Cobra had a finger in the pie. And that is actually more famous for the two strips. The word 'GT 500' also indicates to such a Shelby GT with 7 liters and 264 hp (360 hp). Anybody who drives such a car as oldtimer, devices easily between two worlds. It is important to understand the American automotive world. This includes with much lovel made spare parts catalogs, up to almost the last screw and an incredible availability also very old parts. This matches the car. The first examples had many identical parts with the compact Falcon sedan, including the dashboard. The chassis is kept simple at the Ford Mustang, despite the engines up to seven liters of displacement. Even today (2006), it gives it with rigid axle, shamefully called 'multi-link suspension'. Nearly the most front body parts are screwed.By the way the first (few) to Germany exported cars were not allowed to bear the name 'Mustang', because this was registered even for the two-stroke Krupp truck. Therefore, it was called Ford T5.
