Description
It’s hard to imagine a car that has made a more spectacular debut than the Mustang did in April 1964.
Stories abound of Americans queuing at dealerships just to get a look at the snappy new car; there’s even a story of a truck driver driving through a showroom window so distracted was he by the Mustang. Another goes that one buyer slept overnight in his car, right there in the showroom, while his bank cleared his cheque.
Demand was such that sales outstripped production by 6000 vehicles by the end of the first day of sales. Its success was assured to the extent that it took Ford less than two years to crank out a million Mustangs.

There is no doubt that 1966 is one of the most popular Ford Mustang model years in the history of the car. In fact, March 1966 marked the creation of the millionth Mustang, signaling its significance in classic car history.
Although the first few years were definitely good for Ford and its sporty Mustang, 1966 was the year all that hard work truly began to pay off. By 1966, most people began to associate the Ford Mustang with power and performance.
The 1966 Ford Mustang was the car to have if you needed a daily driver and it was the car to have if you needed a weekend cruiser with a sporty edge. It was a car for everyone who enjoyed a well-made vehicle, liked to drive and enjoyed looking great doing it. It was the car to have if you were looking to win over your neighbor or hit the road for fun and adventure. It was also a must-have for enthusiastic drivers and car enthusiasts who simply liked to drive. All this still applies today.
