She still owns the first Ford Mustang ever sold

Mustang4On Monday, I got a call from an editor at the Wall Street Journal asking if I was available to produce and shoot a story the next morning. But it was a quick turnaround;  I would have to deliver that night. I juggled a few things and arranged to shoot this very fun piece on Tuesday morning. And got to take a ride in a really cool car.

Gail Wise was 22 and fresh out of teachers’ college when she needed a car. She didn’t have a model in mind, but she knew she wanted a convertible. She ended up buying what would be the first Ford Mustang ever sold. She even still has the bill of sale. But you have to see what happened to the car over the years. And this video shows you. You can also read an interview with Mrs. Wise here.
