1965 Ford Mustang Commercial – Times Have Changed

[ Thanks to AutomobileHistoryUSA for having this 1965 Ford Mustang Commercial posted on YouTube.]

It’s hard to tell if the guy was supposed to be goofy, or, if it was just appropriate for the “times”.   Immediately I tried to compare it to today’s commercials.

Back then the guy dreamed of a hot woman, the wild west and surfing.  Today that commercial would probably have someone dreaming of a hot woman, extreme sports, and perhaps, surfing?

Maybe life hasn’t changed as much as I thought…. Watch the video …

1967 Ford Mustang, 4-speed, 289 4-barrel

In the shop – I’ve got this is 1967 Ford Mustang, 4 speed with a 289 4-barrel. It has a rebuilt engine, new radiator, carburetor, clutch, brakes, front end and bumpers. The interior is in good shape with the exception of the driver’s side seat. Needs minor chrome trim work around the front grill. It runs and drives great. Fast!

How much time do I have?  Sell as is?  Or fix it up more and enjoy it for a little while… drive it a little?

Hmmm.  Decisions. Decisions.

Red 1967 Mustang Fastback 390 GT [Also in the shop]

Everyone loves an old Mustang.  Take a look at this “beaut” in the shop …

I bought this car and transported it from Maine. Stripping it. Taking it apart. Rebuilding the engine.  Working on the transmission. New brakes.  This will be a great car…  And we’re having fun along the way!   — Bill
