The success of the production Mustang gave Ford’s designers a chance to explore the sports car concept in any direction. As soon as the first redesign of the car appeared in 1967, Ford introduced the Mach 2 concept (via Ford Performance).

This was one of several cars with the Mach name which would later appear on the regular production version but the shape and layout were unique. The Mach 2 was a two-seater sports car with a long hood, short rear end, and a mid-engine configuration. The car was something like a more affordable version of the GT 40 race car, and it looked stunning with Shelby-style alloy wheels. Unfortunately, it was never produced and the Mach 2 only served as a car show item.
