1973 Ford Mustang Convertible V8 302 Automatic AC

This 1973 Ford Mustang Convertible offers the perfect blend of vintage style, open-air cruising, and reliable V8 performance in a package that remains one of the final expressions of the original pony car era. With its factory “Bright Red” exterior, black vinyl bucket seat interior, and aggressive Mach 1 decals tastefully added for flair, this Mustang captures the bold personality that defined the early '70s muscle scene while retaining the elegance of a convertible cruiser.

Under the hood sits a strong-running 302 cubic inch V8 engine that's been upgraded with a 4-barrel intake manifold and Holley carburetor to deliver enhanced throttle response and a satisfying rumble. For purists or those looking to return the car to factory specification, the original 2-barrel intake is included in the sale. The engine is mated to a smooth-shifting C-4 automatic transmission that makes for easy driving whether around town or on long stretches of open road.

Power steering and power brakes ensure the car is manageable and responsive, offering a confident driving experience with a vintage feel. The Mustang also retains its factory air conditioning system; while currently inoperative and in need of service, it is intact for those looking to restore full comfort capability.

The power-operated white convertible top functions properly and features a glass rear window for added clarity and durability. When retracted, it reveals a clean and inviting black vinyl interior with factory bucket seats, an original AM radio, and a driver-focused layout that emphasizes simplicity and muscle-era charm. The seating surfaces, dash, and panels all present well, making for a tidy and enjoyable cabin.

The car rides on a set of classic 15-inch chrome Magnum 500 wheels wrapped in raised white letter tires, giving it the perfect stance and a period-correct look that always turns heads. The Mach 1 graphics add to the Mustang's visual appeal, giving it a sportier and more aggressive attitude, without detracting from its originality.

While not without minor cosmetic flaws—detailed in the accompanying photographs—this Mustang is a well-maintained, great driver-quality example that shows pride of ownership and careful upkeep. It offers the kind of top-down enjoyment and curb appeal that's becoming increasingly hard to find in the classic Mustang market.

Whether you're looking for a weekend cruiser, an entry into the collector car hobby, or simply a vintage American icon to enjoy on sunny days, this 1973 Mustang Convertible delivers. With its sharp color combination, V8 power, and iconic design, it's a fun, accessible piece of Ford history that's ready to hit the road.
