Herbert Misch and Gene Bordinat with the Ford Mustang I Experimental Sports Car, October 7, 1962
01
Artifact Overview
While it shared its name with the popular production Ford Mustang introduced in 1964, the 1962 Mustang I was an entirely separate project. The experimental Mustang I allowed Ford to test engineering concepts and -- perhaps more importantly -- show the public that the company promoted excitement and innovation. Ford vice presidents Herbert Misch and Gene Bordinat championed the car.
