What if the most iconic American car in history was actually supposed to be something completely different — would you still love the Mustang if you knew the shocking truth about its abandoned prototypes?

In this video, we're uncovering ten buried secrets of the 1964 Ford Mustang prototypes that Ford desperately tried to erase. From the Mustang that was almost called the Cougar — complete with cat badges throughout the design to the four-door sedan version Ford refuses to acknowledge, the all-wheel drive system tested on ice decades ahead of its time, and the tail lights borrowed from a completely different car entirely. You'll discover the retractable hardtop that broke down in front of Henry Ford II, the turbine engine that literally melted parking lots, the all-aluminum body Ford melted down into beer cans, the shooting brake prototype America wasn't ready for, and the hand-built V12 supercar so expensive it nearly cancelled the entire Mustang program before a single production car was ever built.
