Gale Halderman:

Gale Halderman was a designer for Ford Motor Co. for over 40 years. In 1962, he worked under Joe Oros during the time the first Mustang was being developed secretly by Lee Iacocca. Mr. Iacocca came up with a design contest to choose the design for the new Mustang (1964 model year). Gale and other designers were directed to present drawings and the best design would be chosen. Gale Haldermans design was chosen to be put on the drivers side of the clay model, along with his boss's (Oros) design on the passenger side. Lee Iacocca chose Haldermans design and it was ultimately the guiding design for the 1964 Mustang.
