One of the first 15′ Mustangs I got to lay my eyes on was this 50th Anniversary Edition Mustang featured in Wimbledon White. Only 1964, of these Mustangs would be produced in your choice of Wimbledon White or Kona Blue. One of the most unique features that sets a 50th Anniversary edition apart from the other Mustangs is the louvered quarter window glass. It was so awesome hearing Gale Alderman speaking about the 15′ and seeing him with the Mustang. He is one of the original designers to bring the 65′ Mustang to life.
