First Mustang Commercial 1964

[@DatCarGuy350]

50 years later.. the mustang still lives!

[@DatCarGuy350]

I'm not even hating... Just saying. I also like other car companies like Dodge, Ford, Nissan ETC.

[@jeanne_mckenzzie7589]

That was awesome

[@KaranKumar-zf3tf]

So do u !

[@M8Stealth]

[@nintony2994]

10 years later the Mustang STILL LIVES! (before it eventually goes Electric :/)

[@lightningblue648]

Happy 55th Mustang! 4-17-2019!

[@fairfaxcat1312]

It’s a Mustang. This is the car dreams are made of.

[@EbilEnemyofBurgerTown]

Yes, instead of that ugly Mach E SUV.

[@stevenmyers6439]

Yeah, nightmares

[@bawheed7022]

When my grandpa was in canada he had the 65 mustang and he still talks about it

[@KingRoseArchives]

@altfactor I think you're right. This commercial was shown simultaneously on all 3-networks, there were only 3 at that time, and made quite a splash.

[@John-j1j1z]

I had one of the first hubcaps from this filming.. filmed partly in the Garden of the Gods in Colorado. Went to high school right across from Rampart range road where it was partially filmed.

[@lightningblue648]

60 years tomorrow it all began. At 9:30 tonight I will watch again. Still the greatest car ever made!

[@kevinceniceros1690]

Pretty much everybody in the mid 60s dreamed of a Mustang.

[@gertraba4484]

and not going to VIETNAM

[@DJWOLFLIVE]

Former proud owner of a Mustang. Its still a great car.

[@ViktorKbo]

I own a 2011 mustang nd im 20yrs old but this right here my dream car. I pray to god one day ill own one. either a '64 1/2, '65 or a mach1

[@azthundercloud]

a friend of mine has the #400 production mustang. no rust and all original. arizona car its whole life.

[@jimregan2006]

My 2001 Mustang, convertible, 222000 Kim’s, runs great, looks ,great...the other day a fellow at a mall shouted “How much do you want for your car?”😀

[@Bogframe]

We're the same age. At the time of the Fair, we were living in Jackson Heights, a couple of stops away. We rode a Mustang in the Ford Pavilion. One day, we went out of our apartment and saw a spanking new Red Mustang in front of the building. Our doctor had gotten one of the first ones to hit the showroom. My dad was sooooo jealous!

[@lightningblue648]

Happy 57th to my favorite car. It’s so much more than a car though. Most of my friendships are thanks to the Mustang circle. It’s a hobby and a passion. I still smile every time I put my foot down and hear the roar of the V8. Happy Birthday!!!

[@9531-d7w]

I was at that Worlds Fair and remember seeing the Mustang for the first time.

[@KingRoseArchives]

Fifty years ago today world's first pony car -- the Mustang -- galloped on to the streets. What started out as a secretary's car was soon transformed into a boy toy and it's been going strong ever since.

[@viper10ram]

You know that I was there and I remember the first Pony car on the market was a Plymouth Barracuda! RIGHT???

[@SamWesting]

@VK West The fact that you even call the Barracuda a Pony Car is hilarious, as that category's name acknowledges the Mustang as the dominant sales leader & innovator. But you can brag about your 'Cuda being the first Fish Car. 😄

[@earthorganism]

Well, what do you know? It was introduced on my 9th birthday! I don't remember too much about the original Mustang, but I remember the jingle for the '68: "Only Mustang makes it happen, only Mustang makes life great, Mustang moves you, Mustang grooves you, Mustang, Mustang '68!" I think the ad agency would be proud.

[@markromiro619]

i am now a proud owner of a 1964 1/2 mustang yo !! poppy red !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@ehrldawg]

+markromiro619 Congrats !!

[@zapzrebel8713]

Must be nice to be rich

[@maakky1076]

same, i mean my dad owns it

[@markschaier1178]

Remember seeing this as a affordable mini Thunderbird with similar coupe roofline and curved side windows.

[@lightningblue648]

Every year on 4-16 I tune in to watch this at 930pm to celebrate another anniversary of my favorite car. Here’s to number 58 and looking forward to 58 more…Happy Anniversary wishes to the sporty car with the long hood, short deck, and galloping pony in the grille!

[@NoGoodHandlesComingToMind]

@mrpitv so very true! i remember i road a 1967 shelby gt350 when i was 9 or 10 around virginia international raceway and i'll never ever forget it! true american muscle

[@larryhall7998]

My Dads friend stopped by with is new red convertible mustang when they first came out! He took us for a ride in it, I still remember all the people stopping and staring at us when he drove it around!

[@Hazwaste63]

Had a buddy who had a black 1965 Mustang with a 289 and 3 speed auto. Thought it was the fastest car ever. I guess compared to my '72 Beetle it was.

[@1964FordMustang]

Super nice, thank you for releasing these commercials that remind us of the good old days. Well done.

[@Mynameisnotowen]

"this is the car dreams are made of" still true driving the s550

[@KingRoseArchives]

rusted or not, it's great to keep these classics on the road.

[@jaydarling3439]

most People who viewed this in TV aren't alive But Mustang will Live forever

[@guitarded78]

lee Iacocca did a great job on coming up with this

[@KingRoseArchives]

@Sidewinder428 I've always thought this was the first. Can you point us to the first? This was the one that was shown on all 3 networks the night before the Mustang hit the showrooms. There may have been some teaser spots done but Ford says this was the first Mustang commercial. Please let us know what you find or have heard.

[@KingRoseArchives]

I know, that's one of the things I noticed when I moved back to California from Michigan --- all of the 60s and some 50s cars that were still on the road. No rust. Road salt is rust's best friend. But it brings people back to the dealerships every few years to replace their rusted heaps.

[@Lanceisabeach]

Wow Love it! I had and (old) 65 convert and a 66, I wish I had just kept them

[@mikeboyer3584]

Great! 65 and 66 are the best Mustangs ever!!

[@stangdude360rs]

can you believe that car started it all

[@SITRUUNAKAKKU-kl3sf]

i wishd id had 6 mustangs from 1966-1971 and 2 machs

[@MrPaladin123]

and in '68 Steve McQueen used a fastback in BULLIT and the reast is history!

[@Al87len]

Yesterday was the 50th Anniversary of the introduction of the Mustang. Don't you wish you still had yours.

[@Autojones]

I do.

[@sightsonmikey8093]

Amazing

[@PatFrenchLeafsFan1]

Didn't Hockey Night in Canada in the 1960s air this Ford commercial during the breaks of the games in some provinces in Canada or not?

[@KingRoseArchives]

I would imagine it's a possibility. But i don't know. It was aired on all the main TV channels in the U.S. when it was announced. I'm sure there was a marketing plan for Canada.

[@altfactor]

I believe the first Ford Mustang went on dealer showroom floors the same day the 1964 New York World's Far opened.

[@gertraba4484]

just about some girl in Illinoise bought it two days before on the weekend

[@countryboy44555]

I'm going to see my Ford dealer today!

[@master335]

My father sold one of the first mustangs in 64 from Sherrill Minter Ford in Kansas city MO., I was 10 when he brought one home and took me on a very scary ride. Three years later he moved to New Carlisle In. And got his own chevy dealership. soon after I helped him unload cars from a carrier and one car , a blue Camaro caught my ear. I opened the hood and it said 302. I thought , well hell this is smaller then a 307, why does it sound like this? The inventory sheet said rpo z28. Well, I soon realized what the difference was after running it around the block.

[@OMENASOSE-ll8yc]

i wishd id had some day mustang from 64-73. 67-71. 68-72

[@getz051]

Did anyone notice that the music used in the ad was later used a the theme for Charlie's Angels some 12 years later

[@ehrldawg]

Way cool !!Thanx for posting King Rose !!

[@KingRoseArchives]

Thanks for watching and letting me know you liked it.

[@ohger1]

Some pilot from Canada bought Mustang number 1 that was not supposed to be sold. White convertible. Ford ended up buying it back from him two years later. In the Henry Ford museum. As far as who actually first took delivery, it's hard to say.

[@maryrafuse3851]

Yes he was from St. John's Newfoundland and worked for an airline called EPA. Ford never caught on what a great background the unique geography of Newfoundland would be for Mustang advertising.

[@mrautoman12]

It was April 17, 1964

[@singinjohnny]

Very smart marketing on the part of Ford being that the largest birthrate of "boomers" of the post WWII era were turning 18 in 1964. I rememeber the New York World's Fair of 1964-65 as if it were yesterday. This film is just beautiful! Yes, it looked just like that in living color, not crappy black & white.

[@michaelvaladez3012]

Never knew there was power steering back in 64'. How about cruise control? I own a 2015 Ecoboost Premium Stang and it's a sweet ride,love it to death!

[@markblunck2692]

I'm sure cruise control did not exist - except perhaps on much pricier luxury cars.

[@killdrone999]

I love this commercial along with many of the other mustang commercials. I have to disagree with dacleuv on one thing. I own a 1978 Mustang 2 and it is a beautiful car. Also I have a 1992 5.0 and a 1998 GT 4.6 liter.

[@villeamiettinen]

Mustang was introduced first in Finland April 12, 1964.

[@PatFrenchLeafsFan1]

Didn't Hockey Night in Canada had this commercial during the breaks of the games in the 1964 Stanley Cup playoffs?

[@OsbornTramain]

I remember the Mustang Commercials and the worlds fair, my brother and I were only 4 years old. Our Dad always promised to buy us a Mustang. As time went on, the joke became...."I'll buy you a 64 Mustang when you have a drivers license". By 1976, these first year Mustangs were rather pricy used cars. Dad never did come thru on that Deal! lol We forgave him...lol But we always reminded him lol

[@brysonrodden5112]

My dream mustang is the 67 gt500 with the square fog lights and red with white racing stripes what's yours?

[@austinhazlett2k17]

It's no wonder many movies still have the car on film old or new.

[@radioguy1620]

one of the keys to it's success was it looked more expensive than it was, still one of the few affordable classics you could show up with at a premium place and get respect, this car and a VW beetle, have to be stock appearing though.

[@KingRoseArchives]

+radioguy1620 Saw a stock '65 last week parked on the street. Looks like it's been a daily driver ever since it was new. The styling holds up and is still an eye catcher.

[@radioguy1620]

wow , gotta love it . still classy after all these years

[@markblunck2692]

Continuity issue. We see a convertible model first and then when the young man gets close to it, he is looking at the top of a coupe. Any one else notice this?

[@KingRoseArchives]

Didn't notice. Good catch.

[@gertraba4484]

@@KingRoseArchives and it's a 260 V8 on the fender badge, really pre production prototype

[@markblunck2692]

@@gertraba4484 I came across this again as someone on Facebook posted a 1965 and a half model. I corrected that issue. The 260 CID engine was installed in the first 75 Carroll Shelby AC Cobras in 1962. After that the 289 was put in those cars. So when the Mustang came around about two years later, Ford may still have been using the smaller block. Or this was a very very early prototype - not sure about any of this.
