BlueOvalNews.com. Dearborn, Michigan. Despite the possibility that Ford is poised sell 200,000 Mustangs in 2005, Ford plans to keep the Mustang fresh with new models. In addition to the 2007 Shelby GT500 (see videos) and the recently announced 2006 V6 Pony Edition, sources on Team Mustang told BlueOvalNews that they will introduce another specialty model.

Move over Bullitt, Mach
According to a member of Team Mustang, it didn't take Ford long to decide on the next specialty Mustang to succeed the Bullitt and Mach1. No, it won't be a GT350 or a Boss - but it will be a Mustang nameplate from the late 1960s.

cool I've seen the old picture, but do they have a concept or picture of the new one?

 

I haven't seen a concept picture as of yet, but I'm sure it will be pretty cool.

 

hrm.. gonna have some stuff from the GT500? Makes me wonder how fast it's gonna be? Maybe a car between the GT and what has been the Cobra in the past?

 

A guy in club has a original. It has different hood, grill, tailights, couple interior upgrades, and one other thing I think. Has a plain jane 2bbl 289. It looks cool, thats about it.
