Green Mustang - What Green Mustangs Are Your Favorite?

While a Green Mustang may not be everyone's choice, many enthusiasts say that green pony cars are the best Ford Mustang color. Period.



Probably the most famous of the Mustang Green brigade is the original Mustang Bullitt, which achieved legendary status in it's starring role with Steve McQueen in the movie. Bullitt.

Of course, the other kind of Green Mustangs are those that post incredible achievements and are better for the environment, like Brent Hajek's FR500C Mustang (actually red in color), which included soy plastic body panels and soy based foam seats and was powered by E85 fuel to a new land speed record.

Popular Green Mustangs Over The Years

Although green Ford Mustangs have been available since virtually the beginning, there have been an enormous variety of colors that had green in their name.

For example, if you look at the 1970 Mustang Paint Codes, you'll see no less than four choices of green for that model year.

Interestingly, since these were relatively rare, and most tribute cars also are painted in the popular grabber colors, this color is becoming increasingly popular.

Second generation Mustangs (1971,1972,1973)were also available in various green colors.
