I don't think it's been posted before.
This part is funny to me...
Regrettably, some of the Mustang's visual personality is lost in Convertible form, as the coupe's sloping fastback roofline, which makes me think of Steve McQueen movies, is a casualty. With the fabric top up, the profile more closely resembles a stretched version of the original Mustang hardtop from that year of record, 1964 1/2.
The guy obviously doesn't remember what the Bullitt Mustang even looks like. He references the roofline and compares it to a '68 fastback. Put a 65/66 fastback, a 67/68 fastback, and an '05 coupe in the same pic with them showing their profiles and there's no doubt the lines were taken from the 65/66.
