Sell my 65 mustang

Mar 20, 2006 4 Replies
1964½ is a term that is used by Mustang owners and enthusiasts to describe the earliest Mustangs ever built. Although Ford never officially used the term "64 and a half" to describe these cars, they did arrive on the market in early 1964, before other true 1965 models. The first Mustang actually rolled off the Dearborn, Michigan assembly line on March 9, 1964. This was in the middle of the normal 1964 model year, giving rise to the common term "1964½" Mustang.

These early cars also have a large number of important differences from the true 1965 model Mustangs.



Basically, if the car was built before August 17, 1964 - it will have come with a generator instead of an alternator, and therefore be considered a 64½ Mustang. I am moving out of country need to sell love the car. I've owned it for 13 years.In a climate controlled storage unit. Thanks all who read snipped-for-privacy@aim.com email


Thanks for explaining all that on here... but what's THIS particular car like?

You know.. the things AFTER you determine it's really a 64 1/2... like the engine.. transmission, trim, what shapes it in, where one can see pics.

Just the incidentals that might get a decision over the top...

Sorry... But I need to know whats in it so I know how much it's worth when I cut it up and sell the parts.

Ouch. That's cold.

Maybe, but oft times it's true that the sum of the parts well exceed the whole. Think of it this way. Other restorers need the parts so in the end there are more 64 1/2's out there.
