This June, You Can Tour Mike Berardi’s Fantastic Ford Mustang Collection

Mike Berardi – Ford’s Global Director of Service Engineering Operations – loves the Ford Mustang. In fact, his own, personal collection contains 43 specimens ranging from the original, 1964.5 model to the present-day, including noteworthy special models like the Boss and the Mach 1.

And on June 9^th, 2017, Mr. Berardi will be giving a tour of his private Ford Mustang collection, concurrently with the Mercury Cougar 50^th Anniversary Show in Dearborn, Michigan. Attendance will be free to all parties registered for the Cougar show.

Mike Berardi’s collection all started in 1978 with a bit of an unlikely first pony car: a Ford Mustang II with a 2.3-liter inline-four. To this day, two examples of the Pinto-based Mustang II still dwell in his collection, as do some much more enviable cars: a 1966 Shelby GT350H, a 2013 Shelby GT500, three different Indy 500 pace cars, etc.
