The horse that turned back into a pony
Bob Ottum
August 27, 1973
After starting small and swelling ever bigger, Mustang is suddenly small again—rolling into 1974 as a tiny luxury car. Shown at left are advance samplings of this new look, and below are before-and-after silhouettes
Since the cars won't go on sale until September (final price is not firm but expected to be close under $3,000), it will be some time before the vote is in from car buyers in general and Mustang buffs in particular. But for now at least, it seems that Anna Muccioli has won her battle and has her small car back. Ford's Iacocca has promised he won't blow up Mustang again. But in passing he noted that, for those who might be interested, a little bit more brutish V-6 engine is available.
