1966 Ford Mustang 'A' Code Coupe (LHD)

Trying to define what exactly makes a 1966 Mustang such hot property isn't hard - there's the sexy looks, the rumble of V8 muscle under the bonnet and the credibility hard won on the race track. An early Mustang is cool in a way other cars can only try to emulate and was the hottest automotive property on the planet when it first hit the streets back in late 1964 - no less than 20,000 were sold in the first month alone. Brainchild of Lee Iacocca, the Mustang virtually invented the personal sports coupe market segment, allowing customers to create a car for almost any purpose. The Mustang could be mild (in base six-cylinder form) to wild (with powerful V8s to choose from), while a range of interior options meant it could be luxury-oriented or have a more macho, sporty feel. There were even three distinct body styles - notchback or fastback coupes and a convertible - to further diversify the Mustang range and today, no two cars are alike. The 1966 Mustang was the last to feature the original - and to many cleanest - styling and had only minor detail changes along with a new instrument cluster. In convertible form, a first generation Mustang makes the perfect weekend cruiser, with plenty of grunt, good looks and room for the kids.
