This well kept 1979 Light Chamois Mustang Ghia coupe is owned by Hugo Simons of Sint Stevens Woluwe, Belgium. Hugo writes, Early 2008 I saw it on the internet, liked it, came to an agreement with the owner over the phone and had it delivered to me by truck. It was not far from where I live, about 60 kms. No test drive. It was a gamble and so far I won. I never was particularly fond of Ford nor Mustang, but now I am. People change. Hope to do many happy kilometers with it.
