The VIN plate from No. 100001
"To say that our car wasn't built for sale is not quite right," Casey says. "Serial number 1 went to Newfoundland, and the car with serial number 2 went to the Yukon. Those were the two farthest places away from Dearborn, and they wanted to be sure all the dealers had a car for the official on-sale date. Our research shows that Ford did not intend to sell car No. 1, but they forgot to tell the dealer that."
There were between 185 and 211 preproduction Mustangs built," Paddock says, and "all those preproduction cars, including Mustang 100001, were not supposed to be sold. They were supposed to go to dealers for promotional purposes or to shows, including the World's Fair, but none of them was meant for retail sales.
So the Ford guy says "Maybe 000001 was not to be sold and the Used Car says 000212 was the first,
What about the other 211 ???????????????
Maybe im all wrong but $ X 211 seems like a lot of clams to be "not selling"
Am I missing something
