Never seen one before or since and the whole time I drove it total strangers would comment on it. I bought it from the original owner and had all the original paperwork from the sale, and it said on the sales stuff the stripes were an option.Gregg wrote: ↑Wed Jun 08, 2022 6:20 pm BTW, the 1964 1/2 Mustangs were mannequins.
After they were built, Ford made several changes to the production models and that is how you can tell (besides the VIN) that a given car is a 1964 1/2 and not a 1965 which is what the title says on all of them.
Biggest giveaway it's a real 64 1/4 is it has a generator and not an alternator.
I have read that three times and still don't get what you mean by a striped gas tank? You can't see the gas tank on a '65 Mustang so I'm missing something and now I MUST KNOW because I consider myself a Mustang trivia master.
Below the back bumper, the ridged part that goes under the car was striped. If you were a few car lengths back you could see it. I'm in the middle of ANOTHER fight with the fuckwits at CVS so my brain is mush. I have no idea what that part of the car is called right now. I'll try to come back and clear it up if I don't wind up killing someone first.
