Manville Smith just purchased this Wimbledon White 1966 Mustang convertible (April 20th, 2009) with only 40K on the odometer. This is our featured Attitude Of The Week for the week starting 5-24-09. Manville tells us more, "It is very original and highly optioned. The paint is original and the body/frame is straight and rust-free. The car was originally a Ford company car ('Transportation Services' DSO) and it still has the Ford Employee parking decal on the rear window. Original items include the C-code 289 V8, C4 automatic transmission, power steering, front disc brakes (rare on a non-GT), 2-speed wipers, luggage rack, 'Visibility Group' (remote controlled door mirror, day/night mirror), power convertible top, styled steel wheels, Ivy Gold and White Pony interior (all original) with console, AM Radio (works perfectly), wheel arch moldings, and rocker panel moldings. Non-original items are the air conditioning and the dual exhaust."

The air conditioning was added later. This one has the full length center console which appears to be modified to fit the air conditioning unit. Check out the Ivy-Gold floor mats.

The underside is extremely clean. Looks like a new exhaust system with a cross-over up front.

Here is a beautifully restored Sauterne Gold 1966 Mustang hardtop owned by Gary and Tina Fishbaugh of Allegany, New York, and was our Attitude Of The Week for June 7th, 2009. They say they bought the car in the spring of 2008, it has been repainted but most of the interior and chrome is original, and all the numbers match.

Check out the luggage rack. You could buy ski mounting hardware for this rack as well as a luggage cover. This rack was available for many years as well as a roof top rack. In 1969 and 1970 extra hardware allowed this rack to be removable.

It has a Parchment interior with full center console, wood steering wheel, color matching seat belts, and fuzzy dice.
