Some Mustangs are bought. Some are built. And then there are the rare ones that become part of a family's story for generations.
Today's guest is Robert, the caretaker of a very special 1966 Mustang that has been in his family since it rolled off the showroom floor. Originally purchased new by his grandfather, the car found its way to Robert when his grandfather passed away, making it much more than a classic Mustang—it's a family legacy on four wheels.
Although Robert has only been the owner for a few years, he's continuing a story that began nearly 60 years ago. Today we'll talk about his grandfather, the memories tied to the car, what it's like preserving an original family Mustang, and why some cars become part of who we are.
Robert, welcome to Ford Mustang: The Early Years. We're glad you're here.
