1971-73 Convertible Desirability

[aturnof]

Hello,

Given that I am newer enthusiast to the Mustang market, I was curious to hear some opinions on on how desirable any of you think a 71-73 convertible is today? Since you guys are the real experts, I want to hear your opinions.

I know the production #s for 71 and 72 are about 1/2 of the 1973, but I also do not know how many of each are still "alive." Additionally, what characteristics and/or options should I be looking for that are more desireable? Foe example, was A/C not common?

I plan on using this car as 3rd fun car that will always be garaged and out of bad weather. However, are these cars known for their tops leaking?

Thanks,
AT

I recently purchased a 1971 Mustang Convertible in great condition. I too am interested in the desireability of this vehicle. Will mustangs climb in price as the 50th anniversary approaches? Are there celebrations planned? Where will they be?
