According to today's guest, Joycelyn Armstrong, her dad was a Ford dealer from 1970-1987. Quote, "He bought all of his children cars that were built the year we were born. I was born in 1965, and I still have my ‘65 convertible. He bought the car when I was 15, and it is my first car and still with me." Joycelyn, welcome to the Ford Mustang: The Early Years podcast.

============

If you own a Mustang, how long have you owned your ride?

45 years

If you own a Mustang or classic car, have you named your car? If so, what is his/her name?

Not yet - haha

If you've made improvements to your classic car or restored it, what work have you done?

She was restored by my brother when my dad bought it in 1980. It was powder blue and rough. She got the works. I promptly killed the motor, so she got a new motor - that’s a whole other story. The best upgrade we’re power brakes in the early 2000s. I weigh a whopping 95 lbs, so getting her to stop was a feat. I spun her 180 degrees to stop in a rainstorm and stared directly at the guy behind me. It was time.

What plans do you have for improvements/restoration/modification of your classic car?

Good question. I often ponder if she should get a facelift lift but since I haven’t, I don’t want her to look prettier than me. We look our age, and I am trying to decide if that is a bad thing. Your listeners can weigh in.
