Here's your chance to get your hands on the end of an era at an affordable price. The 1973 Ford Mustang was the last year for the generation, nd they didn't come any lower, ider, r longer. Best of all, his one's a numbers matching droptop!This Mustang convertible looks thoroughly original with paint that seems too good to be original, nd honestly, t is. This is obviously no longer its factory shade of red, ecause there are plenty of those Mustangs out there. Instead, his one is much more distinctive now with a modern dark silver tone that was applied in 2015. Not only does the new paint shine nicely, ut also it complements the satin black used to highlight the optional NASA Ram Air hood, hin spoiler, nd the rear spoiler. The urethane front bumper is in very good condition with no major cracks or splits, hile the rest of the chrome and stainless trim has been well maintained and shines up nicely. But what we really like are the original wheels. Those Ford Motor Company hubcaps were standard issue back in the day, ut way too many have been lost over the years.The black vinyl interior is the perfect color because when the top is down, veryone can see how well it matches the exterior accents. The seats, arpets, oor panels and dash might be celebrating over four decades on this earth, ut you'd never guess it by the careful maintenance that has gone into this Mustang. Even the driver's seat doesn't show any rips or tears, nd the back seat looks almost completely unused. Not only is the steering wheel original, ut also it's a tilt column a rare option for this year. A nice upgrade is an AM/FM/CD stereo, o you can play your favorite tunes with the top down. In fact, ou can experience open motoring a bit further into the colder seasons thanks to the factory heater/defrost. If you do have to put the top up, t is as easy as a flip of a switch. Plus, he power folding cloth roof has a glass rear window for exceptional vision. The trunk is also properly finished with an original-style mat and full-sized spare with cover.Yes, hat's the original numbers-matching 302 cubic-inch V8 under the hood. Just to make sure this one still delivers great torque and spirited performance, he motor was rebuilt less than 15,000 miles ago. During the restoration, t was even given some extra performance goodies such as a MagnaFlow exhaust. This is mated to Ford's trusty C4 three-speed automatic transmission, o this is a comfortable highway car that's ready for a road trip. In fact you'll find cruising around in this Mustang pretty easy thanks to front disc brakes and the grip of the Uniroyal Tiger Paw GTS tires.There's a lot to be said for the last of the first-gen Mustangs, specially thanks to V8 power and a classic look.
