OUCH. Old mustang in the snow. I have done this and learned to drive RWD in the snow so I am more comfortable with that but the old mustang is a tough way to do it. Get good snow tires and think about them all the way around. I know most rwd only get rear snow tires, but the extra traction for turning and braking might be nice. Lots of weight in the trunk. The mustang is really light, so add lots of weight to it. Couple of bags of sand or something. Kitty litter is supposed to be really good for added traction when you get stuck. Chains when it gets real bad. Easy on the throttle, easy on the brakes. Lighter weight oil, and I would just drain the washer fluid.
