[mustang Monthly] How To: Add-On Cruise Control For Vintage Ford Mustangs

Cruise control, or "Fingertip Speed Control" as Ford originally called it, is something the Mustang didn't see as an option until 1967. Consider yourself extremely lucky if your '67 Mustang came with factory speed control; according to Kevin Marti's Mustangâ¦By the Numbers book, only 55 units were built with the option that year. For some reason, Ford dropped speed control for 1970-1978 Mustangs. It didn't reappear on the option list again until the new Fox-body Mustang arrived in dealer showrooms in 1979.
