Jay Leno's Garage managed to pull a very special interview this week with Lee Iacocca, the legendary American businessman credited with fathering the original Ford Mustang (http://www.autoblog.com/model/mustang) and with bringing Chrysler back from the brink in the 1980s. The interview rehashes Iacocca's success with the Mustang and direct involvement with the creation of Carroll Shelby's first cars in the '60s.

The video concludes with a walkaround and test drive of the Lee Iacocca 45th Anniversary Mustang (http://www.autoblog.com/2009/10/06/exclusive-drive-iacocca-45th-anniversary-edition-ford-mustang-i/), a (very) limited edition 400-horsepower supercharged tribute to the father of the Mustang. Leno even sneaks in a burnout in Lido's personal example. Check it out after the jump (http://www.autoblog.com/2011/03/29/video-jay-lenos-garage-welcomes-lee-iacocca-and-his-special-mu/#continued). Top tip, Brent!
