Gale Halderman passes

Gale Halderman, who did the actual design chosen for the original Ford Mustang passed away at the age of 87 from cancer. I had the pleasure of meeting him in Charlotte at the 50th, and he was close friends with John and Jenny Clor.
A truly sad day.

What a shame. This guy should have been in some mustang hall of fame and I've never even heard of him until now.

I was actually tracking down John Clor, and they were traveling together and John introduced me to him.

Big loss for the Mustang community. He was a gem. It's a good thing Mustang by Design was written to capture his legacy.

I got this from the Clors only a few days before Gales passing. It's a signed photo of his original Mustang design and a recent bumper sticker.
