This is a 1967 T-5 Ford. You probably recognize it as a Ford Mustang, but is wasn't called that when it was built in 1967. This is #1 of 167 that were produced. The name T-5 originated when Ford decided to export their Mustand to Europe, primarily to Germany and France, and found they could not use the name Mustang since a European trucking manufacturer already had that name in use in Europe. This is one of a very few fastbacks that exist since most were coupes or convertibles. U.S. servicemen, stationed in Europe, bought many of them and returned them stateside when their tour of duty was finished in Europe. |
