1973 Mustang Grande Hardtop

The "Luxury" Mustang Hardtop Returned For Its Final Year In 1973To read the books and magazines, including this one, while at the same time marveling at the prices from Barrett-Jackson, one would almost think that the majority of Mustangs produced from 1969 to 1973 came with Boss or Cobra Jet engines. Yet while performance-oriented Mustangs captured the hearts and wallets of enthusiasts, as they still do today, it was the hardtop and SportsRoof models, most with base six-cylinders or two-barrel small-blocks, that were parked in driveways and garages across America. For example, in 1969, less than 1 percent of all Mustangs produced had a Boss or 428 Cobra Jet engine. All the others came with regular passenger-car engines.
