TL;DR Summary

Gail Wise bought the first Ford Mustang sold in the U.S. in 1964 and still owns it 60 years later. She fell in love with the convertible at a Chicago dealership and drove it for 15 years before it sat idle for 27 years. Her husband, Tom, restored the car, and it was recognized as the first retail sale of a Mustang in the U.S. by Ford. The couple has appeared at various car shows and events, but rarely drive the Mustang now. It's estimated to be worth a significant amount, and their children may sell it in the future.
