Let's not forget the NHRA.If you recall they made Ford build 50(or less lol)T-bolts just a year earlier.That might have been in play here.



I think there were a total of 111 Thunder-bolts built in 1964, they were built in two batches.

That is my thinking.
Did they actually build them?
Was it a paper trail smoke screen?




Yeah I'm starting to think all these production number's for those 70 units claimed to be for 64 Hemi hardtop built are fudged figures! So where the hell are they all then, you would think more than just a couple of them survived today, and more people would have seen them over the years? (unless there is actual proof of their VIN#'s, build & shipping dates). They probably just built a handful of units, then stopped production and started gearing up for the 65 model run.
