I came across this ad and thought it was hilarious! I love looking at old ad print, the terminology is borderline ridiculous sometimes.

I once found a magazine ad for a 69 Camaro that said "does it have get up and go - you betcha". It seemed that was their go-to back then, to ask a question they feel people are thinking and answer it in the same sentence, haha.

Although this one would be quite quite problematic and would never make it past the original pitch today. It has just a touch of racism with the Asian guy making the reference to the cleaners and they touched on the sexist angle with the pretty girl in the bathing suit saying she dates guys because of what car they drive. 🤨

So back to the original premise....

What category of "Mustang People" do you feel you fit in?

I will start.....

I would like to say I am the sophisticated "I like my European cars on the American plan" guy but probably more accurately I'm the "Mustang puts me all together without taking me to the cleaners" guy with the goofy smile, LOL.😁

I'm definitely a "Fastback guy".
I fell in love with a Grabber Lime Mach 1 that I saw on a street in Birmingham, England back in 1972. I told my friend that one day I'd own one of them. He laughed!! 8 months later, I moved to SW Ontario, Canada. Less than a year later I bought my first one, a 71 302 Fastback. I've owned 3 Mach 1's since. I guess I'm hooked.
