Only 71,042 Mustang fastbacks (15%) were made, out of a total production of 472,121.As you see in the pictures, changes were made to the pony car from front to back.
Special styled steel wheels were made for the 2+2 fastback models. Interestingly, even though the styling changes increased the size, the overall effect seemed to make the car actually look leaner. Interior StylingChanges to the interior were minor, with the addition of a strange looking "safety" horn button cover and changes to the dash, including round "rally pac" style gauges integrated into the instrument panel.
One of my favorite additions, was the tilt away wheel, familiar to early T-bird fans. Whether you needed to, or not, it just looks cool to move the wheel out of the way before you exit the car!
