Two of my favorite classics share a March 9 birthday — Barbie and the Ford Mustang.
Barbie, 56 this year, is the older of the two. Here, she’s wearing a back-in-fashion “big needle” 70s frock and hat, looking so good that it’s hard to believe she’s had no work done.
Ford Mustang production began in 1964 — and Barbie herself has been known to drive one. But the doll in the hot wheels here is “Mustang Vally.”
