You people with your lack of knowledge or facts, regarding Ford and the frame and the gas tank and anything else, need to stick to what you know - your video games, and your Tupperware toyotas.

Those early Mustangs had terrible crash test ratings. They had a frame shaped like an X instead of the standard square frame and would get annihilated in side impact collisions.
They were unibody, there was only a front subframe. The gas tank/filler was of a very unsafe design, potentially much worse than the Pinto if the car was rear ended.
GM cars from the late 50's to the mid sixties had the X frame.
I love it!! Classic footage! The night before the mustang was released ford bought all the advertising air time on all three networks.Thank's for uploading this video!
i wish i could have went back to the 70's, with the knowledge of this decade and save alot of the Cars that were in Junk yards like the Mustangs, Galaxies and ect. Fuck Cash for Clunkers.
yea, that why, i am currently restoring a 1974 Mercury Montego MX Brougham, and Cleaning up a 1973 Lincoln Continental Mark 4. im 15 and i have 2 of the coolest 70's car.
Shame Ford have lost the ability to make good cars... sure my new Fiesta and Ranger look very nice and are nice to drive... it would just be good if they would spend less than once a month in a garage for this or that...
I own a non-original 1964 1/2 Mustang. The only parts that are still stock is the frame and most of the body. Everything else has been replaced over the years. My next step with it is to replace the the engine in it with a custom V-12 engine putting out a nice healthy 940 HP and hopefully topping out the car's speed at a bit over 220 MPH, I ain't going for speed, Just power and acceleration. It isn't for the faint of heart. =)
i wish i can go back in time buy 50 of them cars all sooped up and some nice shelbys too so when i come back here i would have alot of them soo i could just sell them all to people and make a killing
My niece is 21 and loves the 1965 Mustang and would love to get one. It's amazing that that young people love this car. By the way, the first Mustang prototype was a pretty cool car!
I was born about a month before the car became available to the public in 1964, and I own a 65 mustang today. If Ford and the other automakers made commercials like this , and had some stylish cars to let people know about, Detroit wouldn't be in the mess it's currently in.
It was a teaser Ad that ran before the official introduction on April 17, 1964 at the New York World's Fair. Back in the '60s new car introductions were a big deal. You didn't see them in every magazine a year before they hit the showroom.
notice when the announcer says "stickshift action" you see the actual stickshift when he says "stickshift" but then they cut to the hot chick in the back of the car for "action"
not to subtle..except if you are living in 1964. crude yet effective.
Little did they realize the revolution of automobiling they had brought

FORD = Foreign Outsourcing Raping Democracy
I'd take a Toyota made in Kentucky by Americans, in America, over a foreign Ford any day of the week.
American CEOs are among the most un-American entities on earth.
You're right about BMW though.
