Leaving a first-gen Ford Mustang to rust in the woods is considered blasphemy nowadays, but it was common back in the day. These cars weren't very valuable a few decades ago, so their owners had no second thoughts about abandoning them in barns or fields when they broke down. Fortunately, many of these mistreated vehicles are getting second chances after sitting for decades. This 1966 Mustang is one of the lucky ones.
Not only that, but it still packed enough grunt to get the 2,500-pound (1,134-kg) Mustang out of its resting place. Not surprisingly, the engine is a bit too loud and smokes a lot as it breathes for the first time in 30 years, but it gets sorted out with a bit of tuning. It actually runs pretty smooth toward the end of the video.
