This week’s tribute to the Ford pony car’s past comes from the team at MotorWeek in the retro video below, reviewing the ’87 Mustang. And while the car only sported a few refreshed features that year, MotorWeek’s old-school take makes them a lot more interesting.

“The Mustang lives” is one of my favorite lines from the video, as it takes note of the fact that at one point it was thought that Ford’s icon might fall victim to high gasoline prices.
The clip also opens with a review of the ’87 T-Bird, which offers yet another interesting take on the period. But considering we are all about Mustangs here, feel free to fast forward to the 4:31 mark for this Thursday’s real Throwback.

I still own my 1988 GT and yes, I changed out the 85 MPH speedo after three years of third gear passes beyond 85. Ford Motorsports had 160MPH units for $100 bucks I think. My GT still runs strong....light weight, no safety equipment, and vast after market of parts. I love the latest Coyote engine swaps which got me thinking of what going from 225HP to 400+ would feel like. Those rear drum brakes and Quad Shock rear suspension most likely would not be too happy.
