The Mustang II was a smaller, lighter pony car built on the Pinto platform and launched in September 1973, just as the oil embargo made small cars attractive. It was about 490 pounds lighter and almost 19 inches shorter than the 1973 Mustang and was sold as a coupe or a three door hatchback. It won Motor Trend's Car of the Year award for 1974 and passed 1.1 million sales over four years, though it is also remembered as one of the weaker cars of its era. Each model year has its own page.
