Stocking stuffers for the big 4-5

We got an oil change, a full tune up including spark plugs, new grease in all of our ball joints, and a re-check of torque on all of our critical bolts to compliment the big disc brake upgrade a few weeks ago.

Today, we turn 45.

On June 1st, 1965 this car rolled off the assembly line in San Jose, California. Given the average daily output of the San Jose assembly plant during this time period (in terms of Mustangs -- the plant also produced the Falcon, Falcon Ranchero, and Ford F100 pickup truck) was about 500 cars per day. Assuming they followed consecutive unit numbers, this makes this car the theoretical 313th car to come off the line that day. Doing the math and assuming a three-shift day that puts the car coming off the line and into the holding area somewhere around 3:00PM. This is all theory, though, as we've found in the hobby, a car was SLATED to be built on a given day due to production issues sometimes it was not. In other words, even though the car's data plate is stamped 01 June 1965 if there was a production issue or line stoppage the car could have been built as late as June 7th!
