 Re: Happy Birthday Capt Brian!
The actual Mustang came out in 1964. As it came out in the middle of the year..it was classified as a 1964 1/2 or others referred to it as an "early" 1965. The first one was in 64...but the "official" one came out in 65. I know they are considered classics...but a buddy of mine bought one...and it was basically a piece of crap. It was like riding sitting on a skateboard and covered with a piece of tin. I saw an almost rusted out 68 model sell on tv the other night for 12,500...and it was ragged out. They were gonna rebuild it to the "Bullitt" standard....worth 40,000 when completed...or that is what they said. The greatest "chase scene" in movie history was considered the Mustang chase in the movie Bullitt.

 Re: Happy Birthday Capt Brian!
The 65 model was flimsy and not wide enough without enough power. I used to own a 69 mach1 351 with ram air. I built the motor myself. It was a solid car, and I used to drive it everyday to school. It was similar to the pic below. I still miss that car...anyhow, happy birthday Mr Brian, we got off on a tangent.
