Which Mustang Ragtop is Your Favorite?

Mine's a Rangoon Red 1965 GT K-Code Convertible.

Ain't that the truth, although it wasn't really an option. Remember Kevin Costner driving one in "Bull Durham"? Way cool.

But the car that sparked my interest in Mustang convertibles was the one in the opening scene of "A Man and Woman", an old French film. I think the car was a 65. Does anyone else remember this?

'66, of course, that why my wife bought me mine!!! Now to afford the house she wants to build, I will probably have to sell it!

64-66 I voted. So a nice 66GT A code in Tahou Turqouise with white-turquoise deluxe interior will do fine

I put '66 but for a 1966 Ford Thunderbird. THAT'S a convertible. Big, roomy, schweet lookin'. Yeah. I'd have one if I were worth MEELions.

The problem was that 56-58 wasn't available, but that's ok, the Retractables aren't convertibles, they're Retractables.

Of course, my Da had a '64 1/4 pre GT GT convertible. That was a very sharp looker too. So my answer STILL works. Heh.

I was just leafing through my 100 years of Ford coffee table book, and on page 177 there is a picture of 2003 Marauder convertible! Sweet. I have a new favorite!

I have always wanted a 67 vert, nothing special, I just love the stance, and the tail lights on the 67.68's for some reason, it just looks bad a$$!
