1972 Ford Mustang Convertible "Olympic Sprint Edition"

The 1972 Ford Mustang Convertible “Olympic Sprint Edition” was a limited‑edition model created to celebrate the Munich Summer Olympics. Only a handful were built, making it highly sought after by collectors. The car featured a special paint scheme in Olympic blue and gold, racing stripes, and distinctive badging, all wrapped in a convertible top for an open‑air experience. Under the hood, buyers could choose a 3.3‑liter V6 producing about 140 hp or a 5.0‑liter V8 delivering roughly 250 hp, paired with either a three‑speed automatic or a four‑speed manual transmission. The suspension used front coil springs and rear leaf springs, front disc brakes and rear drum brakes, and alloy wheels that complemented its sporty look. Today the model is celebrated for its unique design, performance, and historical significance, standing as a testament to Ford’s commitment to innovation and the enduring legacy of the Mustang.
