Room with a view. Sure, this Mustang is a pop-top classic. And yeah, it's tons of fun in the sun during summertime cruising. But with fall coming up, the leaves will be changing soon and there is no better way to check them out than with the top down. The heater works great and the view is outstanding. This car even comes in fall colors. The Maroon paint will complement the background in your photos, so go... ahead, find some cool places to set it and take some awesome fall photos of it. The front of the car leads with the iconic galloping Pony in the center of a black grill with a thin chrome highlight and black on the leading edge of the hood as well as outlining the headlights. It is all underlined by a body colored bumper and a deep chin spoiler. There is a silver hockey stripe running down the side of the car and another one complimenting it on the rear of the trunk with a sharp looking chrome bumper underlining it. On top of the trunk is a wing dressed in black which matches the black convertible roof that balances the look nicely with the black trim on the front. Open the door and you will find a white interior that stays cool in the summer, and looks cool in the fall. There is a white door panel with a wood toned center section outlined with chrome piping. A beautiful wood 3-spoke steering wheel has a Mustang horn button and sits in front of a stock dashboard. Engine indicators are on the left with the speedo on the right and the switches for the power roof, lights and wipers underneath them. The center of the dash is also trimmed in wood with a Vintage Audio FM head unit mounted in it for your listening pleasure. A shifter for the manual transmission rises from the center console which also has a storage compartment and provides a nice armrest. The high back bucket seats are white with red stripes adding a splash of flash and there is a white boot to cover the roof while it is down. Pop the hood and you will find a very nicely dressed out engine compartment with a 302 cubic inch V8 nestled down inside it. The Cobra air cleaner assembly is an oval aluminum unit that is painted black with raised ribs forming racing stripes and the COBRA lettering brushed up real nice too. Under that is a Holley carburetor feeding a stock intake and heads with all the engine iron looking fresh in blue paint. Cobra valve covers complement the air topper and the exhaust heads downstream to a cherry bomb exhaust system which gives the car a nice sound. Signs of good maintenance include fresh ignition components as well as newer belts, hoses and battery. Power flows back through a three-speed manual transmission to the rear wheels. Power front disc brakes assure good stopping power and the rubber meets the road through 245/45ZR17 tires mounted on American Racing alloy wheels with spinner centers all around. Convertibles are not only for summer! Come on down and check out this room with the best view for fall foliage cruising.
