Bright Red 1971 Mustang Spring Special Edition fastback owned by JT from Seattle, Washington. The Spring Edition added many of the Mach 1 and Boss appearance options. JT shares, "I purchased it from the original owner. It had been garaged mostly over the past two decades. He had to sell it because of his health - he is unable to drive. The plus side is that he lives two doors down from me and can visit anytime he wants. It is all original except for a AM/FM Cassette stereo installed sometime in the 1980s. I have had to do very little work to it except some minor paint and transmission maintenance. It was treated with care and well maintained.
I have the original warranty card, owners manual and build sheet. I always wanted a 1st generation Mustang and while it is not a Mach 1 it is still very unique."

The Spring Edition had the Mach 1 bumper, Boss side stripes, grille mounted fog lamps, colored side mirrors, and black lower bodyside paint.

Medium Brown 1971 Mustang fastback owned by Hattie. It has a 302ci V8 engine and an automatic transmission. Hattie shares, "The man who owned this Mustang was getting married and had to sell either his speed boat or his Mustang. He decided to keep the boat and I got the better deal with the Mustang. I have had it since 1980 or 1981. Tell me if my Mustang isn't the twin sister to the Mustang on the Medium Brown 1971 Mustang Hardtop Promotional Sales Brochure!"
