Stereosonic Tape System A new Stereosonic tape system offers the Mustang owner music of his choice in full stereo. The Mu-tang Siereosocic tape - c<>mb.ned wilhan AM radio for newscasts and “live" entertainment. It i< integrated into the instrument panel with the radio and oc- - little additional space. The tape cartridge—only four inches by five inches by ‘u-inch in‘sae-r-slips into a slot above a conventional radio dial much as a| small drawer slides into a table ' \ tape is played at a s[khxl of inches ;ht second. providing up

|to 80 minutes of music—equivalent to both sides of two long-playing records—from each cartridge. Should the listener wish to move to a different segment of the tape, a touch of the left hand knob indexes the playing head to the next of four bands. If the knob is not touched, the player indexes automatically to the next band and wall continue to play through the entire tape indefinitely. Separate tracks are used for right and left hand speakers to provide true stereo. Because the driver and passengers sit in fixed locations, the speakers may be located ideally for stereo. In the Mustang, the speakers are mounted in the lower door panel. Unless they know where the speakers are. the driver and his passengers are aware only of being surrounded by sound and find it difficult to locate the source. In addition to the usual tone and verfume controls and index feature, the system also includes a right-to-left balance control for fine tuning of the Stereo effect.

New- safety options for all 1966 Mustangs include deluxe seat belts with retractors and a warning light that extinguishes automatically some 30 stroods after the ignition is switched on.
