How many times has teh Mustang been Motor Trends Car of the Year?

 

[thundr]

Three times 94, 74 and in 67 (all Ford cars). My turbo coupe was car of the year in 87.

 

[Ohtobbad]

you have to be wrong, you didn't included the 5.2
Its won more stuff in the last 3 years than anything.

 

[Rich06]

Unfortunately incorrect.

 

[Ohtobbad]

64, 68, 71, 89, 2003,2005, ,2016

 

[Ohtobbad]

hmmm maybe 77 as bad as those cars were, they were all bad
it might have won also.

 

[thundr]

Three times 94, 74 and in 67 (all Ford cars). My turbo coupe was car of the year in 87.

Correction 94, 74 and 64.

 

[thundr]

Correction 94, 74 and 64.

Second correction: two 94 and 74. there was not a 64 model year. the 64 1/2 was really an early 65.

 

[thundr]

How many guesses do I get, before I am boo'd out.

 

[Rich06]

Correct, 74 and 94. The car of teh year in 1967 was the Mercury Cougar. Your turn

 

[Ohtobbad]

you won, post up next trivia question.

 

[thundr]

The first mustang was 1965 model. The early cars were identified as 64 1/2 even though they were 1965 model year.
Without opening the hood, what is one of the ways to identify one of the "64 1/2" cars?
I am looking for the sheet metal difference.

 

[thundr]

Needed a bump to see I won.Thanks.

 

[Ohtobbad]

The intent around the rear window was different.
The horn ring was different, can't remember the 3rd difference.
but pick one.

 

[thundr]

Keep trying! Maybe its your third choice.

 

[thundr]

I think everyone is watching hockey and not doing trivia.

 

[thundr]

I guess it's time to reveal the answer.
The main answer I was looking for was the lip on the front edge of the hood.
The other dead give away is for V8 cars they had a 260 logo on the front fender


'Most ’64-1/2 Mustangs had this unimproved hood leading edge. The hood was coined the “’64-1/2 hood” by hobbyists, but not all ’64-1/2 Mustangs were fitted with this hood. Indy Pace Car hardtops, for example, weren’t fitted with this hood, and most promotional vehicles weren’t, either.' http://www.mustangandfords.com/news/mustang-1964/
