not a newb, but new here
hey, some of you might know me, but if not, here is a quick intro, I spent 4 years in a concors correct classic Mustang shop (and I will argue until the end of my life that there is no such thing as a 64 Mustang), I helped run a major Mustang forum, ran my own site, and I have had my 86 featured in Modified Mustangs.

Dangit Twister! I go and tell ya about this place and you beat me to signing up! lol 
Twister's of the belief (and I tend to agree with him) that the "64-641/2" Mustangs as they're commonly called were '65s that were sold early. In reality, Fords own technical manuals and parts books back that up. The aftermarket mainly coined the term to distinguish the small handful of parts for the earlier built cars, as well as the owners of such cars who felt their cars were special (which they are, but that doesn't make calling them "64 1/2s" correct, calling my '74 Mustang that was built in the middle of 1973 a "73 1/2" would equally be inaccurate. (especially when the majority of the jury is still out on whether she's a Mustang at all! )

RE: not a newb, but new here
lol, close enough Matt, I just use VIN's (all start with a 5, the first to start with a 4 was the II), part numbers (no C4ZZ part numbers), and the Henry Ford Mueseum has the first productio Mustang, and they call it a 65...I figure if Ford calls it a 65, then it is a 65!
