You are totally correct about Mustang's discontinuous production history. Mustang II was a totally different model from Mustang, just like Bronco and Bronco II.

But production years missed isn't really the issue at hand, anniversaries celebrate the beginning not the consistency of production. Its the different company production that's the issue at hand. This would be no different than if say Suzuki, just for random example, were to have picked up the Camaro nameplate once GMcorp went bankrupt and then began production of a Suzuki Camaro.

Would you be fine with a 2017 Suzuki Camaro being labeled as a 50th Anniversary?

Now that's obviously a completely obtuse example, that would never occur, but the core concept is the same.
