I'm guessing that Joyce does, but MM is a Feb. 65 built car. What are your 65 Mustang build or buck dates?------------------ Alex Denysenko Co-Administrator and Moderator NHRA/IHRA/SRA member and licensed Superstock driver MCA member# 53321 NHRA and IHRA SS/LA National Record Holder '00,'01,'02,&'03 Fleet of FoMoCo products including 88 ASC McLaren Mustang #28 Professional Manwhore The Barry of BarrysGrrl Quote #1: "I never met a magazine mechanic I liked."

The Pace car is fairy early, but they had been made for a month. 14D = April 14, 1964We also have a K-code coupe is 22J = September 22, 1964 Poppy the C-code vert is 01B = Feb 1, 65 Kween the K-code vert is 22B = Feb 22, 65 Last year we bought a really rotten coupe we sold for parts. It was VIN 100009, with a March 64 date. Thanks for asking Alex. J. Looks like we have lots of Feb 65 cars, all too early for GT or Pony.

I don't say much on here unless I have a question. So far I have been pretty lucky. However, I though I would reply to this one as I find it interesting.My Mustang has a date of 24H which as I understand converts to a date August 24, 1964. What I don't understand is the warranty number starts with 5F08 wich makes it a 1965 model. Paul

There is plenty of snow and salt here this winter. The asphalt roads look like its been painted white there?s so much salt. I think the attitude comes from being built about 15 minutes from Staten Island. [This message has been edited by 68 S-code GT (edited 02-13-2003).]

A 24H date code puts you about the 3rd week of "true 65" production. Your 6 digit consecutive VIN number is probably around 270000 (give or take 2000?).64.5 Dearborn production began with 100001 (05C date), and ended around 220500 (31G date). 65 Production begain with 250001 (01H date), making your car around the 20000th 65 car produced at Dearborn... As mentioned, no 64.5/65 Mustang VIN's began with 4 - all were considered 65's, and began with 5. ------------------ My webpage: www.gt350clone.com [This message has been edited by GT350Clone (edited 02-13-2003).]

I KNOW there are NO 64 stangs. However, when I bought my Pace car in California three years ago it came with a title that said 1964 Mustang. I transferred it to Utah and now the new title also says "1964 Mustang." A cool, on-going clerical error. Shhhh, let's not tell the DMV! J.

I didn't do it, it came from California that way where it always lived, a 71 (LA) DSO. I kept a copy of the Ca title. I have no intentions of selling the car, so it will stay as is. Geesh! Well, thanks for the warning though. So I do have the oldest Mustang on M&M, what do I win? J.

Joyce, I don't want to scare you but you should e-mail me. If I was the previous owner of the car, I'll bet you I could get it back via the law. If you recall I was a car dealer GM for a long time and delt with title issues on a daily basis. Most lawyers are dirt pos's and think they know it all. There are about 5 lawyers in the USA that specialize in dealer fraud/title and automobile law. One of them is in my area and two of the others are in Ca. Both make well over 7 figures a year. ------------------ Alex Denysenko Co-Administrator and Moderator NHRA/IHRA/SRA member and licensed Superstock driver MCA member# 53321 NHRA and IHRA SS/LA National Record Holder '00,'01,'02,&'03 Fleet of FoMoCo products including 88 ASC McLaren Mustang #28 Professional Manwhore The Barry of BarrysGrrl Quote #1: "I never met a magazine mechanic I liked."

I wish it was mine, but a friend has 5F08F100112. It was the 1st convert sold in the state of Florida, and built the 1st day of production. He is the original owner and also has a 66 GT convert that was made the very LAST day of 66 production. Then there's his 66 convert that he drives every day! Life can be so rough! My convert is Aug 13, 64. Our coupe is May 16, 1964, the factory GT convert is June 10, 1965. The rest are way after that.

It seems to me that the VIN # be the "pillar of logic" to clear up any confusion of what is typed on the title, regardless if it was called, a '64 or '65, two-door or four-door, GT or MACH I.....thus preventing anyone from re-claiming a car due to it simply being mis-named on its title; but stranger things have been known to happen...........
