Today on Ford Mustang: The Early Years Podcast, we’re talking legacy—real legacy. Our guest has been riding in the same Mustang since 1966… yeah, you heard that right. Bought new by his mom, it officially became his in 1980, and over the decades, it’s evolved into something far beyond stock—rebuilt from the ground up with just a couple of original pieces still hanging on.
