History of the car:

A Young Army Captain, Thomas Reichert Purchased this 1969 Ford T-5 Mach 1 for About $2700 From the PX at the American Army Base Outside of Wurzburg, Germany Through the Local Ford Dealership. He Decided to Make His Purchase About Style and Not Performance as He Was Choosing Between the T-5 and a Cyclone GT. On May 7th, 1969, Captain Reichert Took Possession of This Vehicle at the Port in Bremerhaven, Germany. A Few Days After Getting the Car Home, He had the Undercarriage Rustproofed by the Local Ziebert Franchise in his Current City of Rotterdam, Netherlands. The Local Police Would Often Stop Captain Reichert's Wife While Driving the Car Just to Look at This Unique Vehicle. Captain Reichert Returned to the United States with the T-5 After 9 Months and Approximately 6,000 Miles.

This Iconic T-5 Has Been Owned by Three People: Captain Thomas Reichert 1969-1985 / Michael Pettitt 1985-1995 Copy of His Title / John Pelletier 1995-2021 Copy of His Title

The Ford T-5's were built at the Metuchen, New Jersey Plant, and exported to West Germany. A West German Manufacturing Company had the Copy Right to the "Mustang" name. At the time it was Ford's policy not to buy Copy Rights, thus the Design Code T-5 instead of Mustang was used as it's name when exported to West Germany. Nowhere on the T-5 will you find the word Mustang. Emblems and markings remained identical though. T-5s were sold at West German Ford Dealerships.
