A Free Day's Drive in a Classic Mustang
Filed in archive Classic Rentals by Philip Powell on July 6, 2007

Another month has flown by and once again The Open Road is giving away a free day's classic car rental
as part of their ongoing anniversary celebration contest. This month's car, a 1966 Ford Mustang 289 Fastback, will especially appeal to North Americans holidaying in the UK. It comes with a Cruise-O-Matic 3-speed automatic transmission and left-hand-drive, both of which should make the task of driving in Britain a little easier for neophytes, although driving on the left side of the road in a car with the steering wheel on the left requires a little extra care when watching for passing vehicles. As with all Open Road rentals, their Mustang is in perfect, trouble-free condition and has never been used on "salty"roads; to keep it in pristine condition the car is only available from the beginning of April through to the end of October. Incidentally, this is my favorite Ford Mustang, having all the qualities of the original with the added beauty of a fastback plus that superb 289 c.i. V-8.Permalink: A Free Day's Drive in a Classic Mustang
