McLaren M81 Mustang (1987-ish)
The first of Ford’s Special Vehicles Operations. Only 10 were built due to a high price tag, making these pretty much the rarest Mustangs on earth.

Ford Mustang assembly line (Milpitas, 1964)
“Man made rain from above, below and from the sides subjects a Mustang to the test which assures buyers of a water-tight vehicle.
An invisible dye in the water, when exposed after a three-minute storm  to black light, detects by a magic glow the slightest trace of water.  The test is one of hundreds which pin the top quality label on Mustangs  now produced at Ford Motor Company’s San Jose assembly plant at  Milpitas, Calif., where the first Western-built Mustang rolled off the  final line July 10, 1964.”

Ford Mustang — The original Roadster concept, from 1962.

This was actually the very beggining for the Mustang, even though very little was used to the final design you know and love. It started its life as an open, two-seater with a 4 cylinder engine mounted at the middle.

Bullitt (1968) — IMDB

Perhaps the most epic movie about american muscle. McQueen pretty much made the Mustang a cool icon, and the Charger was forever transformed into the “baddies”’ car.
