64 1/2 restoration
 

I own a 64 1/2 hardtop, 18,000 miles, sat for 25 years.I'm currentlly restoring it. current color is sun yellow, I would like to change the color but can't find any documentation on body colors with trims. any suggestions? I'd like to keep it somewhat original. vin # 65A-v-86-12F-26-1-6
trim is all black. and no they didn't make a red EXT. with black INT.darn-it

you can go with any thing take ven# to paint store they look up color can even give you colors for that year

Not sure where your info on a red/black combo not being avaliable in 64 1/2, but we had a new 64 1/2 D code poppy red covert in our family which was purchased in May/64 and I saw and talked with the 2nd owner of a 64 1/2 poppy red/black hardtop at the 35th anniversery show in North Carolina that had all of the original paperwork on display with the car. Also all of the 64 1/2 color and interior trim avaliabilty charts I have seen for show both code 3 poppy and code J rangoon red as being avaliable. Have also seen this combo on many 64 1/2's at various shows. Hope this helps

The catalog from Texas Mustang Parts has a section that lists the paint colors and trim packages for the early Mustangs. According to this list, the Rangoon Red 64 1/2 Mustang came with a black interior.
