Raise your hand if you've ever seen (or heard of) this one. It's a 1975 Mustang II 50th Anniversary Mexican built coupe. It was built at the Ford assembly plant in Mexico and commemorates the 50th Anniversary of the Mexican built Ford cars. They have a dash plaque that says '1925-1975 Modelo Aniversario' then a ID number of 171. This car has had a repaint and the seats and headliner were redone. The hood scoop may be added. Looking around the net, Ford Mexico offered a similar Anniversary edition on each of their models. I found an LTD with the same exterior/interior colors and dash plaque. If you have any further information about this car or the 50th Anniversary model, let us know.

This is the 1975 50th Anniversary dash plaque. It commemorates 50 years of building Ford cars in Mexico. The plaque says '1925-1975 Modelo Anniversario Ford Vehiculo Numero 171'. It's pretty easy to translate to '1925-1975 Anniversary Model Ford Vehicle Number 171'.

This is a Special Edition 1990 Deep Emerald Green Mustang LX convertible. This particular one is sometimes called a 7-UP car because 30 of these were to be given away by the 7-UP Bottling Company as a promotional item. These cars actually started life at the ford factory as coupes! They were converted to convertibles. The work was done by Car & Concepts in St. Louis, Missouri. The 7-Up contest never materialized but 4103 of these special Mustangs were built. 2743 had automatic transmissions and 261 of them were exported out of the country.
