Ford Australia organised the importation and conversion of the 1966 Mustang to right-hand-drive (RHD) for the Australian market.
This coincided with the launch of the new XR Falcon for 1966, which was marketed as the "Mustang-bred Falcon".
To set the official conversion apart from the cottage industry, the RHD Mustangs were called the "Ford Australia Delivered Mustang" and had compliance plates similar to the XR Falcon.
About 209 were imported to Australia – 48 units were converted in 1965 and the further 161 were done in 1966.
