Ahhhh, the Mustang. For a few years it was the most beautiful car ever made!

I bought a '65 Mustang... ordered it from the factory. It was a Red Convertible,, rally pack, Pony Interior,, the works,,, except the electric retractable roof. Those darned electric roof thingys only worked the first 6 months, anyway.
I paid $26,000 for that car. When I got married in 1967, my husband, the farmer, talked me into selling the car. To this day, my heart sinks when I see one on the road or parked at the Mall.
I was going to try to find another one. But someone reminded me that there was no Factory Air Conditioning in convertibles back in 1965. Times have changed,, and so have I.
Today I have a replica sitting on my desk to remind me of my wild and crazy youth.

I left college in a 1964 powder blue Mustang sedan in May of that year. It was a present from my folks for graduating from college and ceasing to be a financial burden on them.
I put 50,000 miles on that car in the first year, including four trips cross-country and forays into Mexico and Canada. It was a superlative car, and very comfortable for me (6 ft 2 in, I don't fit very well in most small cars).
Wish I still had that puppy. But when one marries and has children, one trades in a car like that on a station wagon. LOL.
All you who are on the leading edge of the baby boomers, remember the Mustang, remember "Louie, Louie," and help put a seasoned veteran of life and society into Congress. I promise that I will INVEST my congressional salary (which I don't need these days) in a restored Mustang with a plate on it that says "FREEPER11."
The reason for that is I will represent the 11th District of North Carolina, and I will be the first Freeper to become a Member of Congress. And if you come to Washington and visit, you'll be welcome to drive that Mustang to your favorite restaurant that has valet parking. (Gotta show it off, right? And they'll probably think that YOU are the Congressman. LOL.)

I remember when the movie '"A Man and A Woman" came out. It was a French film that had some mainstream popularity. By mainstream standards it was considered steamy. I had watched a lot of French films and was not affected by the steaminess. But I was really impressed with the music and Jean Louis Trignant driving that Mustang in the sand on the beach. An American sportscar in a French film, I knew the Mustang had really made it and that I wanted one.

I had a '68 once, with a tricked out engine (tricked out by former owner).
Life was good.
Nowadays I drive a Chevy Pickup.
Life is good.

Car Fans Gather to Celebrate Mustang's 40th AnniversaryMy, my, my - I AM getting old! I remember when I wanted a pink Mustang! Thankfully, that never happened.
I did, however, own a '74 Mustang. Not pink!
