Photo from the Ford Archives. This was the car that Ford wanted James Bond to drive in the movie Goldfinger. Ford supplied the Mustang convertible - one of the first off the line BTW and wanted the chance to provide the James Bond car. Unfortunately, the shooting schedule was already underway by the time the Mustang Fastback 2+2 went into production but Ford created the car anyways in hopes of getting it some screen time. Alas it wasn't meant to be.
