AM/FM Mono Radio

A retained legacy audio-option lead awaiting a period Ford price list, bulletin, brochure, or accessory record.

Also known as: Early AM/FM radio

Factory option

1966 Mustang

The pre-normalization MustangCarFacts record says 1966 added an early AM/FM mono radio, and the inspected first-generation secondary reference repeats that claim. The claim is preserved rather than discarded, but its underlying period Ford source is not identified.

The inspected March 10 price-list transcription lists an AM radio and Stereosonic tape system but not AM/FM. The claim may reflect a later price revision, limited introduction, terminology mismatch, dealer accessory, or an error; MustangCarFacts does not choose among those explanations without evidence.

Market United States
Availability The legacy MustangCarFacts 1966 record describes an early AM/FM mono radio choice, but the inspected March price-list transcription does not list it; introduction timing and ordering details need period evidence.
