Get ready for the upcoming Ford Mustang window sticker campaign, people who went to Cars and Coffee: 1 of 1965. Ford will now make many Mustangs with the 60th Anniversary package, which has a badge and stripes that look like they came from the 1965 Mustang. The kit will only fit GT Premium coupes and convertibles. It will go on sale this summer and start being made at the end of the year. It has not yet been made public what the pricing is. The 60th Anniversary cars have gray, red, and silver trim on the outside. The cars are either red, white, or blue. Do you get it? The 20-inch, five-spoke, dark gravity gray wheels with a red, stamped aluminum center cap that looks like the center caps on 1965 cars are the clearest visual clue. Also, the logos on the trunk and sides look like the “cloisonné” badges from 1965. For those of you who know about Cloisonné, it is a process where images are made with colored glass paste and then heated to about 1500 degrees in a kiln. The method has been used since at least the 15th century, even though scholars disagree on whether it came from the Yuan or Ming dynasties. There are images in red or silver on the sides. You want to know if there is a serialized tag on the instrument panel. Did Lee Iacocca’s hits do well? Of course, there is. The 65th Anniversary version has smoked Nite Pony headlights and a mesh grille that Ford says “harkens back to the 1964 original.” It’s fitting to remember that today is the 61st anniversary of people not being sure if there was a 1964 Mustang or not. Ford started making Mustangs in March 1964, and the cars made until July of that year were very different from the cars made in 1965. For example, the 1965 cars had two different engines. However, Ford never officially admitted that there was a 1964 model, so the first cars were called 1964.5s. This means that if you buy a 2024 Mustang before the summer, you will also get a one-year-old car. You can write an answer on your windshield sticker if you’d like to.
