My car is a 65 black on black Mustang convertible. My wife named her Audry (after Hepburn). She is pristine and almost all original and lives in our garage, the car not the wife. She is not only beautiful but with a 289 4bl she can move and drives like an absolute dream, She was supposed to have a special suspension pkg. Her story is this. Ordered by Ford rep, driven for a year, sold to next door neighbor, garaged and only driven on occasion on clear days. She is simply the most immaculate and beautiful Mustang I have ever seen with only 68900 original miles.

Hi, I'm Randy and bought my daughter a 67 forest green coupe, 200 cid inline six...no mods. Working on it has been a source of great joy and frustration...its just my era.
I have a 1964.5 Mustang coupe with the original 289 4v D-Code, It is 85% original except for a repaint back to the original color of "Pagoda Green" - one of the discontinued colors when the official 1965's came out in September of 1964. It is believed to have been ordered on the day they debuted along with every option that was available at the time.
