My Name is Max and I film while driving cars. No matter if they are old, fast, loud or electric. They need to be special! With several onboard cams, I record everything important to show you High-Speed-Runs, Acceleration tests ( 0-100 kph / 0-200 kph / 100-200 kph / 200-300 kph ) and test drives on German Autobahn or Road. Please note, Germany is the country of "no speed limit" highways. So in some places, it's allowed to drive very fast. But please don't try this if you are not an experienced driver !!

So raw, so analog, so physical. You can imagine all those parts working together like clockwork. No wires, computers, sensors, chips or plastic in between. It's beautiful! The noises, squeaks, the vibrations. You can almost smell this car; axle grease, gasoline and old upholstery. Just you and the car. Cars haven't been made like this for longer than I've been alive. And I'm in my 40's. I do have to say, you are brave. At 200kmh, those old brakes... well, you might as well not have any in case of an emergency. I can also see the vibration of the tires through the rear view mirror. Quite the experience!

@O-plaat 2 года назад

It depends on the owner, literally the first thing I did on mine was replacing the brakes to modern discs with a vacuum pump that combined with thicker suspension bars and stiffer springs do give it a safer feeling on European highways. Up until around 180km/h when the aerodynamics lift up the front side and you lose all steering. She will go up to 230 but considering the fact I just told you its safer not to.

My dad was a military pilot & bought a 67' Mustang with the 289 motor. I took my driver's license test in that car at 16. A month later I had it on the Beltway around Washington DC doing the limit, which was about 70 mph back then, so everyone did at least 80. Even mum used to fly in that car. We had the Mustang for over 20 years. They become part of the family.

@jonfklein 2 года назад

If you’ve never been in the drivers seat of the ‘65-‘66 Mustangs and looked out over that long hood, it really was an amazing view. The 260 c.I. V-8 that was the first V-8 offered before the 289 was a great little engine. For very little money an Edelbrock aluminum intact and Holly 4-barrel carb would wake up the little 260 and it could hold its own with the 283 Camaro. Those were the days when any young guy with curiosity and ambition could have a lot of fun waking up those Mustangs. Just like this one.

@WitchKing-Of-Angmar Год назад

I went 90 in a 1973 Lincoln, 78 in a 1973 Mercury colony park, and 70 in a 1935 Hudson. The front hood in itself was an artform, the difference between a star point hood and then a wide expanse like a 1973 Lincoln is incredible.

My daughter bought a 1966 Mustang Fastback thirty years ago. She asked my advice on buying it or a similarly priced Toyota all I said was I can work on the Mustang and it will always be worth what you paid for it. She still has it. I rebuilt a 302 block and took out the old tired 289 on the advice of a machinist. It was a good call. I saved the old 289 in case it's ever needed. Nice video thank you.

I've been over 120mph (200kph) in my sister's Mustang 68 when I was a kid. That was on backroad two lanes in Alabama. She was cute, tall, blonde and had a lead foot. The first three got her out of tickets. It rode like this at similar speed. She later had a 77 Cougar which had an 80mph speedo. It didn't have a top peg though. It'd wind around back to the zero rest. I have no idea how fast...but it looked similar and felt like a flying carpet compared to her Mustang and Maverick. She next bought a 79 Firebird Trans Am, T Top without the screaming chicken decal....but a Smokey and the Bandit edition. My little brother slammed that into a telephone pole a mile from the house on a 30mph residential, trying it out. Totalled it. I see that, despite claims to the contrary German Freeways still have a few left lane campers, and given 3 lanes trucks live right and good drivers live center.

@halbichp 2 года назад

You know that going in center or left line is illegal, right? You can use them for overtaking, sure. But after that manouvre, you must return back to the most right line. Unfortunatelly a lot of drivers are pain in the ..., blocking center or left line with slow speed. And you also can`t overtake them using one of lines on their right, which makes them even greater a**holes.

@STho205 2 года назад

@@halbichp odd that I see lots of photos of a solid line of OTR truckers in the right lane near Berlin and cars moving in lane 2 (middle) and passing in 3 (left). Hardly a car in lane 1 (right) Photographic evidence denies your stated rules.

they were given for 200bhp at the crank, they do reasonably less at the wheels. My 66 does 125hp/302Nm on the dyno, still does 170kph easily with a 3 speed manual gearbox :) (the one in the video is a 4 speed manual)

@chadkimmel8957 2 года назад

Probably the same 289 2V that’s in my 65. The 4V was rated 225. I have the goofy three speed “Cruise-o-matic” so instead of PRND21 it’s PRN Drive second gear start DL. He’s probably only doing 120 mph.

@E3lcpl 2 года назад

the mustang sounds like a built engine. close to what my 66 sounded like it had about 350 hp at the crank but with the gearing it would only do 150 mph tops and thats with a 4 speed top loader . i always wanted to change the rear gears out for more top end speed but never got the chance

Guys... that's a European-spec Mustang. Sold new in Europe. They were optioned differently, often as models one year behind American versions. The SAME thing happened with American cars imported to Australia back then. Most notably, the speedometer was graduated in KPH, not MPH.

A buddy of mine had one of these back when we were in high school. He invited me to go for a ride, but I declined. Five minutes later he rolled it end over end four times and then rolled it sideways four times. He got his picture on the front page of the paper as he was being administered first aid in a broccoli field. I used to like driving those old muscle cars, but this video spotlights the reality. While you're rattling down the freeway winding that gas guzzler out anticipating some catastrophic failure, some soccer mom is cruising along at 140mph listening some pop song while her kids are playing video games or maybe sleeping in the back seat.

My father bought a 68 VW Squareback new and it had the 3 point harnesses. They were not single with one for the lap and one for the shoulder belts. My dad HATED them until I mentioned at supper Ralph Nadar's book and how it was more survivable in an accident if you were wearing seat belts. He started wearing them every day from that day on.

Being this is an imported mustang originally sold outside of Germany, I'm assuming from USA. (In Germany if memory serves me the Mustang was already copyrighted so it was called a T5 and didn't have the mustang script on the fenders.) It would appear this is a 64 and 1/2 or 65 being it doesn't have the 3 "finger" trim/ faux brake scoops on the rear quarter panels as well as the dash is a sweeping speedometer and warning lights with no other guages the 66 has the round speedometer and round gages for fuel, alternator, oil pressure, and coolant/engine temperature... miss my 66 I had

@@jlmljames I was fifteen when I got a new 64 1/2. White with black interior, It was a nice car, well equipped, had a stick shift, but there were much faster cars around in those days. Handling wasn't great in wet weather, the rear would break loose, and brakes were "just okay" for a factory model. If you wanted more, then Ford would certainly sell you a Shelby.

It would top out at 120-130mph from floating the valves. But cruising night with the fox bodies and cameros pulling besidfe me was fun as well (remember stock 289 2bbl) I would put it in wet weather drive (started out in 2nd gear not 1st) and not even look at the person beside me and wait for the light to turn... floor it wait till I was doing about 10mph and drop it into normal drive and t would shift into 1st ad the back tires would squeal for a bout half a second and the rear would shimmy once and I would take off like a bat out of torment while I would have about 3 car lengths ahead... fun times

These cars were very light, even with the V8 and the extra bracing off the convertible body they came in at just under 3,000 pounds. Speed is a function of the power/weight ratio. You don't need much power to go fast if you haven't got much weight to move.
