| This
convertible is 1 of only 525 Mustang Convertibles painted
Wimbledon White in 1972, this includes the 50 Parade Convertibles. Edwin A Fagan, a Mustang
enthusiast
living in Englewood, FL had a local shop Starlite Customs of North Port, FL convert the vehicle
into a
Sprint Convertible
Tribute in 1995.
I enjoy
the attention generated by this beautiful Mustang convertible in local
parades as well as cruising around North Texas. Most people
have forgotten or were never aware of the Sprint Edition Mustangs
of 1972. The story of Ford's Olympic tribute and the 50
parade cars generates a lot of interest.
The vehicle options
differences from the original Sprint Convertibles are; Factory A/C and standard chrome trim.
And of course 15" Magnum 500 Wheels with BF
Goodrich T/A Radials that I added.
This vehicle's VIN number
is interesting. It would sequentially be the next VIN number from the last convertible's VIN number of the original 50
convertibles produced, with exactly a 50,000 unit skip.
In 2008 I did a
complete restoration of the entire interior of the Convertible.
This was the second interior restoration, the first done by Edwin
Fagan in 1995. I am planning to freshen or re-paint the
exterior in 2009, economy permitting! |
