1965 Mustang Convertible
Over Half a Million Sold
The introduction of the Mustang mid-year in 1964 was an unqualified success. Over 120,000 were produced setting the stage for 1965 when a remarkable 559,451 Mustangs were rolled off the assembly lines in Dearborn, Michigan, San Jose, California and Metuchen, New jersey. 73,112 of these were convertibles, which cost $2,614 with the standard Inline 6 engine. About 2/3rds of the customers decided to take one of the optional 289 cubic inch V-8's.
One new model, a fastback, was added to the line and other changes from 1964 were minor. Although Ford continued to trail Chevrolet in total sales, they sold 500,000 more cars than 1964 and cut the difference from 600,000 to less than 200,000.
