It's time to learn about the original performance Mustang.

Before the Shelbys and Bosses arrived, the Ford Mustang K-Code was the peak of Pony Car performance. On this episode of Jay Leno's Garage, Mustang enthusiast Scott McMullen explains the significance of the K-Code, and shows off this restored first-year example.

Ford offered the K-Code option for both the coupe and convertible body styles, as well as the fastback when that body style arrived later in 1964.Selecting the K-Code option netted a sportier version of the Mustang's optional 289-cubic-inch V-8, boasting a 10.5:1 compression ratio, a solid-lifter camshaft, four-barrel carburetor, heavy-duty valve springs, and a high-flow exhaust manifold.
