If the top of the Empire State Building provided a fine climbing wall for giant gorilla, it should also be cozy corral for a mere Mustang.
Ford said Tuesday it is planning to plant a 2015 Mustang convertible on the observation deck of one of the world's tallest buildings, mimicking a similar stunt done 49 years ago in the same place. It marks the half-century mark celebration for the iconic American car.
"New York is one of the greatest cities in the world, and it's the place where the Ford Mustang story began 50 years ago," says Mark Fields, Ford chief operating officer, in a statement. "We're thrilled to be visiting the architectural landmark that has been the heart of the Manhattan skyline for 83 years with the newest generation of the car that is the soul of Ford Motor Company."
