New to me 1972 Mustang convertible

[Marks1]

Nothing special, but still kinda cool.

Kind of surprised not one comment, I guess it's not very interesting to others.

And I got this….

OK, thanks guys, no one ever said anything about this before, on my computer it opens. How about this?

I don't peruse the martni reports often. You probably would have received more input in the Introductions section.

That said, looks like a cool car. Don't see many with a 351 factory 3 speed.

My 72 has a white top and plastic window. Out of the 6400ish they built I would have thought there would have been less made with glass…

I didn't even know that glass was an option, I assumed they all were glass.

Thank you Will ! That's what I thought, and one of the reasons I liked it. I wanted a manual tranny and this one popped up in my search on Hemmings.

Decor group is one of my favorite options on these cars

Does it still have the 3 speed manual?

 

[Marks1]

yes she is bone stock except for the radio, Which is a period correct aftermarket AM/FM/8 Track / CB radio LOL. I did get the stock original AM radio with it as well.

 

[MooseStang]

If you ever want to get rid of the radio, I'd be interested.

Do you mean the AM/FM/8 Track/ CB radio ?

Cool car. I’ve always liked how the urethane bumper looks with that color particularly.

There was no stand-alone option where you could choose what type of rear glass your convertible received. Although the quality of the plastic rear windows (also called rear curtains) has improved over the years, they still could yellow and scratch over time. Ford introduced an industry first with the folding rear glass on the '67-70 Mustangs. Then in '71, Ford released a new semi-flexible (their description) single-piece tempered glass that would flex when lowered. And like the '67-70 folding glass version, the top could be lowered without unzipping the glass. This "Flexible" rear glass was standard for all '71-73 Mustang convertibles.
