THIS CAR IS A 1972 FORD MUSTANG SPORTSROOF POWERED BY A 302 CI V8, I PURCHASED THIS CAR IN APRIL 1999 IT WAS A RUST FREE EXAMPLE THAT HAD JUST BEEN IMPORTED FROM THE USA, I SPENT THE REST OF THE YEAR HAVING IT RESTORED TO ITS PRESENT CONDITION WHICH INCLUDED A COMPLETE COLOUR CHANGE FROM LIGHT PEWTER METTALIC TO FORD RADIANT RED AND THE REPLACEMENT OF MOST OF THE CHROME WORK. THE INTERIOR IS IN ITS ORIGINAL MED GINGER VINYL. THIS CAR HAS COVERED OVER 187,000 MILES WITH ONLY A REPLACED TIMING CHAIN AND A SET OF LIFTERS PLUS TWO  TRANSMISSION REBUILDS. THE FOLLOWING YEAR AT THE MUSTANG OWNERS CLUB OF GREAT BRITAIN 2000 SHOW AT WIMPOLE HALL IT ACHIEVED FIRST IN CLASS FOR 71-73 MUSTANGS, AND BEST POST 1950 AMERICAN CAR  AT THE  CLASSIC CAR SHOW AT MOUNT EDGCUMBE PARK IN 2000. IN SEPTEMBER I FITTED A NEW SET OF MAGNUM 500 WHEELS PLUS NEW TYRES AND A NEW DUAL EXHAUST.
