Mustang Mach 1

The Mustang grew larger and heavier with each passing year, culminating with the 1971 to 1973 models designed under the supervision of Ford's new product design manager, Semon "Bunkie" Knudsen, originally of General Motors. Knudsen's turn at the helm would see the last high-performance big-block Mustang, 1971's 375 hp (280 kW) 429 Super Cobra Jet. Ford originally planned to install a 460 in the Mustang as well. Unfortunately, that very same body style that was designed for the sole purpose of big-block installation versions was limited to a maximum of 351 cu in (5.8 L) in 1972 and 1973 due to extremely strict U.S. emission control regulations and low demand for big block muscle cars because of high insurance premiums. Two more high-performance engines were introduced in 1972; the 351 "HO" and the 351 Cobra Jet. Both cars were excellent performers, but nowhere near the level of the Boss cars and original Cobra Jet. Car companies switched from "gross" to "net" power and torque ratings in 1972, which coincided with manufacturers making low-compression motors with different, far more restrictive induction systems. Thus, making it difficult to compare power and torque ratings.

Very much a different car than the original 1964 model, Ford was deluged with mail from fans of the original car who demanded that the Mustang be returned to its original size and concept. Upon taking over the presidency of Ford Motor Company in December, 1970, Lee Iacocca ordered the development of a smaller Mustang for 1974 introduction with initial plans calling for the downsized Mustang to be based on the compact Ford Maverick, which was similar in size and power to the Falcon upon which the original Mustang had been based. Those plans were later scrapped in favor of an even smaller Mustang based on the subcompact Ford Pinto in order to better compete with the hot-selling sporty import coupes such as the Toyota Celica and Ford Capri, then built by Ford of Germany and Britain, with the German Capri sold in the U.S. through Lincoln-Mercury dealers as a "captive import" starting in 1970.

A red Mustang Mach 1 appears in the main car chase sequence of the 1971 James Bond film Diamonds Are Forever, where it is pursued by police cars along the Las Vegas Strip. The most memorable scene is when Bond tilts the car onto two wheels to drive it along a narrow alleyway. A black on orange fastback, dubbed "Eleanor", is the star of the climactic 40-minute car chase in the 1974 cult hit Gone in 60 Seconds.
