Mustang Production: 1965-69
A definite segment buster in the first few years. Notice the drop off in sales, as GM finally got around to launching their pony cars in 1967. Great numbers, though, throughout the decade.
I remember reading where someone indicated that the Mustang accounted for $2.1 billion (pretax) income through the end of 1969 for Ford. Those were the good old days.
It looks like '66 was the premier year with over 600,000 units being sold. '65 would include the 64 1/2 year production.
