This one slipped under our radar. On June 22nd, 84-year old Lee Iacocca, announced that he is offering a special edition 45th anniversary Mustang through Galpin Ford. Only 45 of the special edition cars will be offered. Silver only, with the standard GT engine or an optional supercharged 400HP version.
Sure Iacocca was the head of Ford back in ‘64 when the first Mustang was launched, but since then he has been more closely associated with Chrysler.
The car looks pretty cool, but why anyone would want a Mustang with an Iacocca badge is beyond us. More at their website.
Lee was one of the few geniuses left in the industry. Sure, he had a few issues and problems. He certainly was’nt bashful about standing up to the supposed heavy weights he reported to. We could use a few of his stature in the Congress today. Regards. John–Las Vegas.
