Stay Tuned Online Magazine Feature Story:: Origin of the Ford Mustang and P-51 name
FEATURE STORY #092208: North American Tuning® Mustang P-51™ - Origin of the P-51™ and Mustang nameplates combination.

During WWII, the P-51 Mustang was a key asset in winning the war. It served as a long-range single seat fighter aircraft. Most P-51 missions were flown as bomber escort in raids over Germany. "Little Friends" was the nickname of these escorts. Several versions were made from the underpowered Allison-engine P-51A to the formidable Merlin-powered P-51D.

Not only did the P-51 Mustang have a tremendous impact on WWII but it also had a great career in air racing after the war. In the early 60's the racing aircraft became known as the P-51R and its reputation prompted Ford to nickname its sporty car. In 1962, as Ford Motor Company was working on the sporty car project, John Najjar, an aviation buff, named it Mustang to honor the fighter plane.

Only the aviation and Ford Mustang enthusiats know that the origin of the car nameplate refers to the aircraft and not the horse.

So it's no surprise that in 2006 and named after North American Aviation (the company that used to build the P-51 Mustang warbird), North American Tuning® started to work on a tribute Ford Mustang P-51... The result is a stunning car and conversion kit.

North American Aviation P-51 Mustang became one of the very best WWII fighters and helped gain air supremacy.
North American Tuning's P-51™ features an aggressive front fascia.

On September 3, 2007, North American Tuning® applied for the P-51 trademark for its P-51 concept car and conversion kit.

Finally there was a bridge between the legendary warbird nameplate and Ford Mustang.

Sure you can have a Mustang with a legendary nameplate such as Shelby or Saleen by spending two or three times as much as a factory Mustang GT.

But where else can you get a unique conversion kit for your regular V6 or V8 Mustang that takes it back to its origin? Starting at $3,995, this kit is packed with a 20-piece body kit and comes with a certificate of authenticity.
