Yeah, I think anyone that's ever bought a new E-type was not exactly "middle class" with respect to spending power.
My dad paid 3750 OTD for his '65 356 C coupe that I have ... but that included $200 for dealer installed AC unit.

From what I recall from my old car mags, a new '65 Mustang would run you $1750ish
