Not so, the VINs are plant and model specific. Your mustang was
the 6001st built in the Rouge Plant. Ford sold over 417,000
Mustangs in 1964 even though the vehicle was introduced in April,
rather than September of 1963 with the other 1964 Fords. That is
why is was called a 1964 1/2, yet carried a 1965 (5) VIN#,
because it meet all of the 1965 government regulations
