1965-1966 Ford Mustang Hood

** This hood may not work with 1964-1/2 and some early 1965 Mustangs*** Please check you vehicle prior to ordering.

64-and-a-half Mustangs have what’s commonly referred to as a “stiffening skirt” along the edges of their hoods. This gives it an edge that’s very different from the more rounded edges of the ‘65. This skirt necessitated a matching beveling around the headlights as well. Many ‘64 1/2 Mustangs didn’t have the Ford hood moldings that were given to rest of first-generation Mustangs, but of course some did. Even if you find a stiffening edge though, it doesn’t absolutely verify that you’re looking at a ‘64. The other external marker many look for are the hood moldings. The ‘64.5 Mustang typically doesn’t have the hood moldings that are seen in ‘65 Mustangs.
