Under the hood of this amazing 1972 Mustang convertible in Gold Glow exterior paint is a 351ci 4V Cobra Jet engine. Jeff of Orange County, California sends us these photos of his Mustang which is our Attitude Of The Week starting February 2nd, 2019. Jeff tells us more: Purchased from second owner 10 miles from original dealership where car was sold new in Southern California. Car had sat for the last 30 years in garage partially disassembled. Went through a complete restoration including being stripped to bare metal and painted in the original Gold Glow factory color. Car is all original and has 84,000 original miles. Many factory options including Decor Group, body tape stripes, Magnum 500 wheels, Air Conditioning, AM/FM stereo and more. Complete matching numbers drive train and this is the Q code Cobra Jet. 1 of only 330 produced with engine and transmission combo...very rare.
