Mustangs in Finland on April 12, 1964

I have been hearing about how the Mustang was shown in Finland before it was in the U.S. for quite a while, but never had any tangible evidence to support this until now. A very nice man named Janne Nieminen sent me the scanned copies of the appropriate pages of an article in Keskisuomalainen, which is a newspaper that is still active today, with the date of Sunday, April 12, 1964, and there it is, big as life, the Ford Mustang. The article was about a car show which had just happened there. A lot of people might not care too much about something like this, but, I've always been interested in the history of this car that the whole world loves, and have always been a stickler for getting the details right. It strikes me as significant that most people think that the Mustang was revealed at the 1964 World Fair in New York on April 17th, and that is simply not correct. Here is a Mustang on display in Finland on April 12th.
