My '67 Mustang Fastback GT, 390 4-spd.
I've heard there wasn't a big bunch of them made.
Owned it from summer '69 until April '72.

the rarest car i ever owned was a 74 anniversary trans am 455sd 4 speed with T tops. i have read that only 6 cars were made. the T tops leaked so bad they removed the cars from the assembly line and welded up the roofs where they were. car was rusted up to the door handles. the floors were sheet metal pop riveted in. i traded to someone who knew what it was. i only paid $200 for it. drove it for 2 weeks. and traded it even up for a 78 little red express with a blown motor with 60k miles. this was the summer of 1980.
perception is 90% of reality

1969 Road Runner Hemi 4 spd Last I heard it was the only 99 spring green Hemi 4 spd car known like a fool, I sold it in the late 80s . Car sold new right here in town.Scothorn Motor Co. Bought by a grandma for her grandsons high school graduation present. To this day, I remember seeing it in the early 70s running around on deep dish cragers and cherry bomb exhaust ( car was LOUD) and he was beating the snot out of of it everytime. God I wish I had that car back, Last I heard it was in Wisc.

Bill, my mistake - I thought you were talking about a '71 Stage 1. Yes, the number of 1971 455s has been adjusted over the years. I have the proper number somewhere based on research from the Sloan Museum.
1967 Mustang 390 fastbacks are not rare at all, by the way.

I sold my 69 1/2 A12 4 speed,Superbee in 1994 for $8800.00 That seemed like good money for the car at the time. They exploded in value a few years later. Who knew? Atleast I sold it to buy a 69 Charger 500,which I later traded for the 70 V code Charger R/T I have now. All three are very rare cars.
