The iconic Ford Mustang was unveiled to the world on April 17, 1964 at the New York World's Fair. Designed by the man himself, Walt Disney, the Ford Rotunda was several blocks long and featured a few noteworthy Ford models but the primary focus was the multiple Mustangs in various body styles on display. Ford considered the first Mustang as a 1965 but due to its release date these early cars are now labeled by collectors as a 1964.5 to distinguish them from the later cars. They can be identified by the serial number range found in the VIN number. This extremely cool 1964 1/2 coupe is a very nicely built car that incorporates some original and customized features to make a very unique classic muscle car. The car was completely restored in 2021 and took around 2 years to complete. It has all new paint done in its original Poppy Red color with a a unique White center stripe and the GT style stripe down the sides. In that side stripe is custom "MUSTANG" lettering on the doors and the year on the front fenders. The chrome on the car is in great condition and it has its correct style new front/rear bumpers and also has the new trim for the faux rear brake scoop area. The exterior handles and mirrors were also all replaced. The exterior lights all work properly and all have been upgraded with more modern LEDs. The glass is in good condition throughout, has a slight tint and is framed in very nice stock style trim. The car has a great stance and rides on a set of very clean American Racing Torq Thrust wheels with custom red Mustang emblem center caps. The wheels and BF Goodrich Radial T/A (P225/60R15) tires are all new.

The car is powered by its original 260 V8 motor that has been completely rebuilt. During the process it got a new carburetor, new chrome Ford Mustang valve covers, a new alternator (replacing generator), new Mustang air cleaner and was also mostly painted Blue. It has a ton of very nice modifications and under the hood it is fully show ready. It has the export brace set up with chrome shock tower mounts. Even the shocks tops are red for a real cohesive look and little details like using new red spark plug wires on the new distributor are a nice touch. The car has a great sound through the dual exhaust that is all brand new. Backing up the motor is an automatic C4 transmission that was rebuilt and shifts smoothly. From front to rear the car was fully gone through with all new brakes, a new chrome brake booster, new gas tank, new battery, new suspension bushings, etc. If it needed something, it got it, down to even small things like a new windshield wiper bag.
The interior of the car looks great and is done in a very cool red with white combination. It has its original bucket seats that have been recovered and look great with a custom Mustang emblem embroidered on the back. This embroidery was also done on the center of the rear bench seat. A custom painted console is mounted between the front seats and fits with the look perfectly. The door panels are also a red/white combo and new with all new hardware. The carpet has been replaced with new and is done in red with black Mustang floor mats. The only thing that was left untouched was the original headliner as it was in good condition. The dash is very clean in all white with a matching dash pad, column and steering wheel. The AC system utilizes underdash mounted vents and blows cold. Other very cool features include the custom red/white lap belts and custom door sill plates. In the trunk it received all new black carpeting.
