A continued look at models from 1964. Today we have a FM Mustang. The Mustang was introduced in the Spring in 1964, as an early '65 model, considered a 64 1/2 by many.

1st issued as a hardtop in Dynasty Green (the only hardtop issued as far as I know) followed by a convertible in Poppy Red. That was followed up by several other limited edition convertible models. A Pace Car version, one in black and this one in Guardsman Blue. A Limited Edition of 2500, mine is #075.

Not being a Mustang fan, I have to admit I like this one, and I do have it.  I think for this particular model, it's the color that makes me like it.  Great pics John!  Hope you're feeling better.

One of the prettier colors of the Mustang.

When I was 13 in '66 my Uncle Eddie bought a Vintage Burgundy Mustang with the black vinyl top. I got to ride in it and I thought it was one of the most beautiful cars that I'd ever seen besides the brand new '63 Corvette. 

My Uncle was cool. We used to watch & laugh at all the cartoon shows on Saturday's.

Especially the Roadrunner and the Coyote.
