Good to see the production body finally on the mules.

Can't really see much but the pads make it look smaller IMO

Front end looks like some of the concept pics we have seen, with those "Thinner" looking headlights

It's been hinted that this, along with the rest of the Ford lineup, will carry design cues from the current Fusion/Mondeo and Escape. So I definitely see through the mesh that this might carry a lot of that open mouth grille and slim headlights.

The production model better have HID headlights and LED taillights. Don't go backwards Ford!

Most of that is probably padding and whatnot under the canvas to hide the true shapes and lines. I would expect the '15 to be roughly as curvacious as the current car, not angular like, say, a '79 Foxstang.

I hope there is a lot of padding around the grill/headlights, because that front overhang looks huge.

Looks like a lot of old body cladding is still there but it appears to have major hip outlines!!

So now I'm really confused. Didn't you say 2014 was the year for the all new Mustang? I thought the '14's were already on sale? This doesn't coincide with the 50th anniversary as everyone knows the '64 1/2 was the first year.

The "1964 1/2" designation was never official, all were originally labeled as 1965 models. It just went on sale way early for the time. This Mustang coming or at least being unveiled in early 2014 as a 2015 model meets the goal of being a 50th anniversary model.

I'm just happy the prototypes are now surfacing. Won't be too much longer and they will be testing them with LESS camo and we will get a slightly better picture.

It does seem to have a lot of front overhang. Some of it is from the camo covering of course.

Exciting stuff.
