'66 Mustang Fastback GT

I turned 16 in 1968. My dad and I were going past the Ford dealer in Winter Haven on a Friday night when I said, "Look at that Mustang!" The next day, Dad went to work, so I asked Mom to take me down to look at it. When we got there I saw a salesman's card under the wiper. It said "SOLD." I was crushed, but asked a salesman who bought it. He came back and said Arthur Harris. It was my dad! What a surprise. I was in heaven. I kept the car until 1972 and sold it to a friend for $750. Ouch! I've tried to find it over the years to no avail, but I have so many great memories.
