The thief, the enthusiast, and the one-of-a-kind “Shorty” Ford Mustang!

In 1964, Ford was playing around with the idea of a small two-seat sports car to compete with the likes of the Chevrolet Corvette, of which only one running prototype was ever built. Here’s the story of how the “Shorty” Mustang was stolen, recovered, sold, and loved over 50 years.

BY BRIAN LEON NEW YORK DAILY NEWS, Published: Wednesday, July 30, 2014, 4:42 PM

The one-of-a-kind 1964 two-seat Ford Mustang prototype owned by Bill Snyder A one-off short-wheelbase Ford Mustang may not be the most desirable collectors’ item in the world,

but for Bill Snyder of Hudson, Ohio, it’s been his pride and joy for the last 46 years.

In the early 1960s, Ford was experimenting with prototypes for the upcoming Mustang, which would

become one of the most influential American cars of all time. They toyed with everything from long,

futuristic grand-tourers to sporty, two-seat race cars, and everything in between. Created in 1964, the

“Shorty” Ford Mustang was designed by Vince Gardner and built by Ford supplier Dearborn Steel

Tubing for a travelling car show.

Only one running prototype of the “Shorty” was ever built, and largely resembled the Mustang that

would find its way to production less than a year later, minus a few inches of wheelbase and two rear

seats.

Did you know?

As interesting as this one-of-a-kind pony car is, however, the story behind it is even more enthralling.

While most pre-production prototypes are sent to the crusher when their usefulness has dried up, Gardner

decided that his “Shorty” was too special to deserve such a fate. So, he stashed it away in a nearby

warehouse and convinced Ford that it had been stolen. Ford claimed an insurance payment on the missing

‘Stang, and the case was seemingly settled.

However, Gardner failed to pay rent on the warehouse space, and upon investigation the warehouse owner

discovered the car and took possession of it as payment. “Shorty” was eventually sold to one of the

warehouse company’s executives.

Having seen the pint-sized prototype at an auto show four years earlier and fallen in love at first sight,

Snyder discovered the car up for sale in Hemming’s Motor News in 1968, and had to have it. “I contacted

the seller and immediately sent a driver from my printing business to Connecticut to pick up the car,” said

Snyder. “I’ve owned this one-of-a-kind Mustang for the last 46 years.”

The "Shorty" Mustang was fitted with a 302 V-8 from Ford and re-painted by its owner, Bill Snyder

Over time, the paint cracked and the car accumulated over 15,000 miles, but Ford decided to step in and

restore and improve Snyder’s unique ride. They fitted “Shorty” with a 302 V-8, of Boss Mustang fame,

and Snyder had a paint supplier match the original color. With a few months of hard work, the Mustang Jr.

was returned to better-than-new condition.

“Shorty” made its public re-debut at the 2013 Amelia Concours d’Elegance in Florida, and this year,

Snyder has been making the rounds at a variety of auto shows, celebrating 50 years of Ford’s iconic pony

car and the rebirth of his beloved, one-off ride.

2015 Roush Mustang teaser - July 2014

It's still a few months before the 2015 Ford Mustang starts to arrive at dealerships, yet a number of established aftermarket tuners are clearly hard at work prepping even hotter versions.

The latest to tease a Mustang project is Roush Performance, which today posted the hazy profile pic above and added the name S550 in a tag.

Technical details haven't been released—or even teased—at this point; and the wheels in this picture are definitely not stock, but that's a given.

We expect a remarkably finished, well-tuned car. Ford gives a select core of tuners advanced access to its parts, and Roush has a solid history of building Mustangs with more power, plus improved handling to match—as well as a little more bodywork or trim to stand out and be recognized, yet not so much so as to be garish.

Recent Roush Mustang models have been offered in Stage 1, Stage 2, and Stage 3 levels, with the Stage 3 cars adding the most performance enhancements and appearance changes.

Check back for more details on the next Roush Mustang in the next few weeks. With the 2015 Saleen Mustang S302 that's on the way, as well as cars on the way from Steeda and Galpin Auto Sports, even in the new Mustang's first year it looks like those looking to access a little more performance will have some especially exciting options.
