OK poll made, my first time to do a poll so I hope I did it right. Sorry if your color didn't make it, but I looked at responses so far and compared with common colors and historic colors. Now maybe we'll get something more scientific.

I'd like to see a list of '65/'66 ford production by color.

From my experience with them, white and red were fairly common but weren't as common as some think.

I'd say Red. Then again most of the classics I see are either Red, Blue w/white stripe or White w/blue stripe.

Cool This is a very Tough One!

My two-cents: This is a very tough one! Have always loved the original white Mustangs with the dual blue stripes. But remember seeing my very first Mustang when I was a kid. It was a Poppy Red GT 2+2 fastback, with a four on the floor shifter! Oh Wow!! I have loved Mustangs every since that day!! When we got our latest, the CalStang last year. It is white because this was our favorite color offered at that time on a GT/CS! Had Ford offered a GT/CS in their very hot Torch Red, it could be out there in the shop today!! Lastly. We do now really do love the look of our white CalStang and so do a lot of the other Mustang folks we meet at the area car shows!!

Yes those are the colors, but not the production totals.

There was a color used in '66 that was very much like 'legend lime'. Ford may have just changed the name.

My picks: 1. Red, 2. Blue, 3. Black! They all look good on almost any mustang.

Looks like Legend Lime is opening up a nice lead. Maybe the LL club found out and voted en mass.

Yup, that would be my guess.
