The First Mustang Was Sold By Accident
The first Mustang ever produced was a convertible model and it was actually sold by accident. The car was issued as a pilot test car that was used by a driver for 10,000 miles and at the end of the trial it was accidentally sold. The car eventually made its way back to Ford and it currently sits in a museum that the company owns.
These cars were an important milestone for Ford so naturally having one of the originals was important. There weren’t a lot of other cars from the era that created an entire segment like the Mustang did. The car was a well-built piece of machinery from the start, with styling to match.
