For those of you interested in Classic Mustangs
You may want to check out your "born on date" and decipher the VIN codes from your vehicle data plate (located on the driver's side door frame). There is a Mustang ID Website that will help you determine the origins of your vehicle. For instance, I know that my car rolled off the assembly line September 29, 1964, at the Dearborn, MI, assembly plant. It was a 1965 model hardtop, 2 door, C-4 automatic transmission, standard interior, bucket seats, phoenician yellow exterior paint (from 1964 colors), with Palamino vinyl and Palamino upholstery, and was ordered by the Seattle district sales office.

Texas scholar, J. Frank Dobie, had this to say on Mustangs:

"These horses bore Spanish explorers across two continents. They brought to the plains Indians the age of horse culture. Texas cowboys rode them to extend the ranching occupation clear to the plains of Alberta. Spanish horse, Texas cow pony, and mustang were all one in those times when, as sayings went, a man was no better than his horse, and a man on foot was no man at all. Like the longhorn, the mustang has been virtually bred out of existence. But mustang horses will always symbolize western frontiers, long trails of longhorn herds, seas of pristine grass, and men riding free on a free land."
Quote written for the "Mustangs of Las Colinas" sculpture in Irving, Texas. This is the largest equestrian sculpture in the world.
