12) Where was the Ford Mustang displayed for its 50th anniversary?


In 2014, the newly redesigned 2015 Mustang GT convertible was taken in pieces up a freight elevator to the top of the Empire State Building and reassembled high in the sky to commemorate the marque's return to the city that started it all 50 years prior.

13) Who designed the first Ford Mustang prototype?


Executive stylist John Najjar co-designed the first prototype of the Ford Mustang in 1961, working jointly with fellow Ford stylist Philip T. Clark.
