How many '65s left????

[Sam8950]

Anybody know how about many original production 1965 Mustangs are still in existence? Tried searching the web, but couldn't find a number. I'm sure there are many just sitting in a field, barn, or old garage (like the one I recently purchased) that haven't been registered in years.

I would actually like to know too. It would be cool to know how many original ones, how many restored ones, and how many barn/field cars are left.

I would also like to know how many of what years are left. I can say this much, there can't be all that high of a percentage of them left considering how many were made. I'd bet the total is somewhere near 25% of all Mustangs produced between '65-'73 are left today.

2.....buy them now.....lol

It seems to be an impossible task just based on what you guys have said.....non-registered, not licensed, parked in barns.....no way to get an accurate count.

I'd settle for just kowing how many registered ones are out there.

 

[tx65coupe]

Yeah, that would be good to know. It would give us an idea.

25,687 coupes
19,852 converts
17,817 fastbacks

Educated BS, I mean guess!!

Where did you get those numbers from? I would think the coupes would be alot more than that.

He forgot to count the coupes that have been converted to fastbacks..........

Sorry to mislead. They were pulled directly from my a$$. I don't think there is any real way to get any numbers other than a guess.

Yeah, Your probably right.
