Truly is it said that American petrolhead and talk-show host Jay Leno has more connections than a telephone exchange.

Not because he got his hands on a prototype Ford Mustang GT, and not because he persuaded the man who was responsible for the creation of the original Mustang - Lee Iacocca - out of retirement to talk about what went on behind the scenes in that frantic year.

A SENSE OF OCCASION

Not because he got chief engineer Dave Pericak to give him the inside story on the 2015 Mustang GT - but because of what's standing next to the new Pony Car in this latest bulletin from the most envied garage in cyberdom: the actual Mustang 1 concept and the very first production model.

You gotta hand it to the man; he has a sense of occasion and a feel for automotive history.
