Assembled entirely from standard parts and sub-assemblies, a rear-engine automobile called the Mustang has been introduced in Seattle as the newest entry in the lowprice field. The car, which seats six, two in front and four in back, is designed to sell for $1235. It has a four-cylinder, 543-horsepower Hercules engine. The power unit, consisting of engine, transmission and rear axle, slides out for repair when the body is raised. A door in the body just ahead of the rear wheel provides access to the engine for servicing.. There is a large luggage compartmentin the rear. The buslike front end rjdes excellent visibility for front-seat occupants.
