| General Information: The Ford Mustang Convertible
was 4th of 4 limited edition cars in Daum's convertible series. Originally
meant to be a limited edition run of 2500 pieces, Daum never
produced close to this number of cars. This car originally came with
a Certificate
of Authenticity which was hand numbered to match the serial number
of the car, and a metal nameplate with the car's name silkscreened
on it. The original box label was also hand numbered to match the car's
serial number. This car was designed by Xavier Froissart.
I have now verified the actual edition size of the Ford Mustang
Convertible, with some help from people in high places! Only 319
Ford Mustang Convertibles were actually produced and sold by Daum,
making this car a lot rarer than originally thought. A Note on serial
numbering: I have S/N 331 even though only 319 Mustangs were sold.
It is obvious from this that certain serial number cars were destroyed
after being numbered, and Daum just kept numbering the cars produced
in sequence. So while only 319 Mustangs were shipped, the serial
numbers of at least this car reached 331. It is not known what
the highest SN is, but presumably it is not much higher than 331.
Very Interesting. |
