Limited Edition Ford Mustang is an awesome 60th birthday present

And we have to say, it looks the business.

Imaginatively called the ‘60th Anniversary Package’, the pack is available on V8-powered coupes and convertibles and harks back to the original Mustang from 1965 through a number of tasteful design touches.

Up front there’s a unique grille as well as new GT-inspired badges on the front quarter panels that read ‘GT 60 Years’ and ‘5.0’.

Special decals feature on the side and there are also silver mirror caps for models painted Race Red or Vapor Blue. The car you see pictured here is finished in Wimbledon White.

Ford claims the changes were inspired by “the clean silhouette of the original car” and inside owners also gain a numbered build plaque on the dash.

The 20-inch wheels are a custom design, too, and they’re some of the best wheels we’ve seen on a Mustang in a long time. Ford says they riff off the chunky design of the original Mustang (anyone else also getting major Fuchs vibes?) and they’re further proof that five-spoke wheels are superior to all others.

“We have no plans to introduce the Ford Mustang 60th anniversary Package to Australia,” said a Ford spokesperson when contacted by Wheels. Sigh.

But there is a silver lining. Owners of the current seventh-gen Mustang can gain a new retro gauge cluster for their digital dash that’s inspired by the original 1965 model. The over-the-air update is a free upgrade in the US and there’s a chance it’ll be available to Aussie owners too. Ford is coming back to us on whether it’ll be available here, so stay tuned.

Until then, feast your eyes on the many images of the 60th Anniversary Package. Are you or a fan? Or should Ford have done more? Jump into the comments.
