Sign of the times Mustang II brings $16,750

[Too Many Projects]

It really was a shock when Ford made the drastic change in the Mustangs, but with gas having shot up to $1.00/gallon after the embargo, it was a sign of the times.
In about '76, I worked with a woman who had a '69 Caprice with an L36 427. She hated putting gas in that tank and after she got lightly rear ended, she took the insurance money, sold the car to me for a few hundred dollars and bought a spankin' new Mustang Ghia. She loved the little thing and the mileage, but just a quick look at it and I knew I would never own one of those flimsy cars.
