For Sale: 1964 Ford Mustang in Morgantown, Pennsylvania for sale in Morgantown, PA
Vehicle Description 1964 1/2 Ford Mustang Convertible There were several names proposed before the Mustang was given its famous moniker.
These included Cougar, Panther, Colt, Stiletto, Comet, Allegro and many more.
Even Ford couldn't have predicted how successful the car would be.
On the opening day, 22,000 units were sold, and dealerships were taking waiting lists for several days after.
For consignment, a 1964-1/2, (sic, see below), model of the Mustang convertible.
This is verifiable as an early model as it sports several cues of the 1964-1/2 model that were refined on the 1965.
Some of these are a large horn within the engine compartment, black hinges and springs for the hood, a pressure switch for the brake lights attached to the brake cylinder, no carpeting filling the gap between the rocker panel and the sill plate, and an A on the vent knob (to the left of the steering wheel).
Yupperz, this is a 1964-1/2 with a non factory for the year repaint, a new canvas top, the original interior and is totally rust free.
All this comes our way due to downsizing of a collection, and this one is low hanging fruit in the massive tree that is our Hallowed Halls NO TITLE-SOLD ON A BILL OF SALE ONLY Exterior Grabber Blue in respray form now covers the original steel panels for this car.
From the hockey stick cove in the doors to the front venting to cool the battery, this car is well done but not without a few faults and flaws.
Thepaint, while shiny and decently applied is showing its fair share of battle scars in the form of inclusions, chip offs both large and small, mismatched touch ups and some overall wear.
This first year pony presents with shiny polished chrome trimmings for the cove, bumpers and window surrounds.
We see dings and notabletwists in both the front and rear bumpers.
A 260 badge is on the front quarter, and the iconic triple inverted V tail light clusters are gracing either side of the rear panel.
Covering the passenger's compartment is a nearly new tan canvas convertible top with a crystal clear plastic rear window.
On all 4 corners are the 6-blade fan-like wheel covers, standard fare for most Mustangs of the time.
Interior A flip of the door and blue in shade covers the interior in vinyl.
On those door panels are a large clip style, (as opposed to screw on for the actual 1965), handle to open the door, another 1964-1/2 cue.
We note some wrinkling of the panels and light surface rust on the blue textured steel surrounds.
Beautifully preserved low back buckets are up front and are in excellent condition.
In back is a matching bench also covered in dark blue vinyl.
A cracked and faded blue padded topper covers the fairly clean dash, with the speedometer flanked by the two round temp and fuel gauges and warning lights and odometer in the black panel within the blue dash.
Sitting proudly in the middle of the hump is the T style shift lever, nicely preserved.
Blue carpet floods the floors finishing out our inside tour.
Drivetrain A 260ci V8 yields a power plant that appears original and untouched and isretaining its factory-correct status.
It presents in a dusty,unrestored, and patina riddled engine bay with blue valve covers and air cleaner cover.
No hints of any oiling or leaks at the seals, and this mill is buttoned up.
A correct C4 3-speed automatic transmission is on back and sends power to a Ford 8 rear axle.
Undercarriage Well preserved is the buzzword for this undercarriage, with no rust, solid toe kicks and floor pans, rockers, frame, and a newer gas tank.
Drum brakes are on all 4 corners, and the suspension, independent coil spring up front and leaf spring in the rear is noted.
Overall we are viewing an unrestored bottom side with a sprinkling of patina, road dirt and slight surface rust.
Drive-Ability Fresh from storage, and with a test battery installed and some starting fluid in the carburetor this pony roared to life.
While the engine does run smoothly, until the brakes, suspension and steering are gone over wedecided not to risk a lap around the test track.
So, what's the difference between a '64-1/2 and a '65 Mustang? Not much and yet everything.
From 50 feet away, they look the same; close up, they host quite a number of differences.
The '64-1/2 Mustangs have always been '65 Mustangs-always.
As enthusiasts, we call them '64-1/2 because it's easier to say, but it's also a cult thing.
Early '65 Mustangs have the distinction of being the first block of Ponies ever produced.
They were an integral part of the Mustang madness that swept the world in 1964.
And if you have a '64-1/2 built at Dearborn, that makes it even more significant in the relative scheme of things, because it was born in the motherland.
Otherwise it's an early 1965!
