1997 Ford Mustang GT 2dr Convertible

1997 Ford Mustang GT Convertible â?" 4.6L V8, 5-Speed Manual, Custom Two-Tone Interior Why This Car Is Special The 1997 Ford Mustang GT Convertible sits in an interesting position in Mustang history. It was the third model year of the SN95 generation's mid-cycle refresh, which Ford introduced for 1994 after putting the Fox body platform to rest after fifteen years. By 1997, the GT had settled into a confident, well-sorted package â?" the 4.6-liter modular V8 had replaced the pushrod 5.0-liter in 1996, and the new engine was already proving itself as a stronger foundation for both daily driving and performance tuning. That transition was not universally celebrated at first, but enthusiasts who drove the two-valve 4.6 back-to-back with the old 5.0 quickly recognized that Ford had built something with a lot more ceiling.
