Mudflaps? No way! You wouldn't happen to have a mullet, would you? Hehe.
Actually, if you want to protect your car I heard of a company that makes
clear plastic film that can cover areas prone to rock chips. It won't harm
your paint and removes easily. Do a Google search. Mud Flaps are ugly and
have joined mullets, bell bottoms and disco in 'out of style' purgatory. :)

Which would ALL be about period correct on a 60's Mustang.....except maybe
the Mullet.

Sorry, Kate.... they are only period correct on the cars owned by those who
would LATER wear mullets.. or whose kids would.

I'm of that generation ... and would never use any of them. ...ESPECIALLY
mudflaps or blue-dots!

I ALSO never wore a "ducktail" hairdo or a motorcycle jacket.

I DID once have my hair down past my shoulders but that's a different
story....

Hey hey hey!!!! Watchit with the put downs on bell bottoms and disco
shoes...... LOL : ) Fashions come and go, and come back again....
Save those old clothes... DISCO SHALL RISE AGAIN!!! Oh, wait! That was
Confederate money we were supposed to save..... : )

Seriously, bell bottoms in the 60s, with Pilgrim square toed buckled
shoes, and paisley shirts and Nehru jackets..... Or white denims,
button down collar shirts with "fruit loops', Beatle boots, and your
belt buckle offset to the side.... and madras with dyes that bled all
over everything .....

Take a look in the old clothing stores and swap meets and see what
kind of prices those things go for today.... Used jeans for over $100
a pair? Used tenny runners... $500 a pair....
