1965 Ford Mustang Convertible

This Is The Rear Shell Of A First-Generation 1965 Ford Mustang Convertible Coupe Ragtop [76A], In “Dynasty Green”, One Of 73,112 Mustang Convertibles Built In 1965, And One Of A Grand Total Of 1,288,557 “Original” Mustangs Produced Between 1964-’66. The Entire Front Clip Of This Car Was Missing, As Were Several Parts Of The Interior And A Few Other Major Components.

 

At The Time, I Desperately Wanted To Salvage That Iconic Chrome Mustang Badge (Gas Cap) On The Rear As A Keepsake (I Was Just A Kid!), However I Was Told This Car Was “Being Worked On For A Customer”, This Car Was Still In The Yard At Least Three Years Later.

 

There Were Many Mustangs In This Yard Over The Years, In Fact They Had At Least A Handful Of Examples Of Every Single Generation Of Mustang For Quite A While, Including Mercury Cougars. There Were Even Some Very High-Performance Mustangs Such As V8 Boss 302s, 351s, And Even At One Point A Very Rare 1969 Mustang Mach 1 Boss 429, And Also A 1969 Mercury Cougar Boss 302 Eliminator.
