On April 17, 1964, the Mustang was introduced to the public at the World's Fair in New York. Before the day was over, Ford had secured 22,000 orders for the vehicle at dealerships across the country. As such, the 1964 Mustang was considered an instant hit with consumers. With a price tag of a mere $2,320.96, Mustang costs roughly half as much as a Chevrolet Corvette. Interior "Luxury options" include: full-length center seat console, air conditioner, convertible with power-operated top, vinyl tonneau cover and deluxe wheel covers. With its abundance of optional equipment, it is easy to imagine a Mustang for every type of personality. Powertrain options begin with a 170-cubic inch diameter (cid), single-barrel carbureted inline-six, which is a carryover from the Falcon. The strongest pulling of the five available blocks is the 260 cid V8. March 11, Henry Ford II's nephew parades a pre-production black Mustang to lunch in downtown Detroit. Newsweek picks up the "unauthorized" disclosure. This becomes one of several clever public relations schemes. Magazine ads appear, hinting at a first look at the groundbreaking Mustang: "The most exciting thing on TV tonight will be a commercial." During the 9 p.m. time slot, 29 million Americans watch the "unveiling." Mustang preoccupies the public's attention at the World's Fair in Flushing Meadows. Later, the automotive press takes to the road in a Mustang tour from New York to Detroit. An eager press corps assembles on the Empire State building observation deck for a reveal of the Mustang. To manage the feat, a Mustang is disassembled, freighted up a service elevator, and reassembled.

This 6-cylinder automatic Mustang is simply in outstanding overall condition. The paint is very nice and the interior is excellent. The engine compartment is very clean along with the trunk. Looking at the undercarriage, you will see that it is very clean and rust free with good single exhaust. All gauges, lights and instruments are in good working order including the upgraded radio. (The original radio and speaker are in the trunk.) The Mustang starts, stops, shifts, runs and drives down the road excellent. Remember, this is a non-power assisted brake Mustang so even though the brakes are very good, you still have to put some effort into it when stopping. There are tons of early Mustangs out there but try to find another one like this and in this beautiful overall condition. If they are out there, I haven’t seen many for sale.
