ok, The grille is a 65, the gas cap is a 65, and the side chrome is a 65. Most of the stuff is for a 65, except for the gauge cluster..... ut oh. Something is very screwy.
Do we have a photo of the gauge cluster? From memory aren't the 65 GT and Pony gauge clusters the same as 66 ones? the only difference being the "eyebrow" chrome at the top of the cluster?

yes, The 65 GT clusters were the same as 66s, but that car isn't a GT. I dont think that they installed the 5 guage clusters with pony interior, but i could be wrong.

I think the passenger side VIN is under the fender just aft of the shock tower. If someone has their fender pulled off now they could tell you for sure.

maybe it's just me, but i think someone stole your pony!
The Pony wasn't on it when I purchased it. However, I got a used one from eBay.

Also, I'll take several pictures tomorrow of the gauges and anything else that is requested.

if i remember correctly, it's on the drivers side under the fender. you should see a notch cut out of the fender. it will either be where the notch is, or just under under (past) the fender lip where the notch is. just look on eother side for a notch about 2-3 inches long and it should be there.

Clucth, Are you talking about the one that is on top of the fender? because he is talking about the one under the fender? So there's a notch under the fender and you can see the vin without taking it off?

i'm not 100% sure, but i believe it should be there where the notch is. you may not have to remove the fender or it may be under the fender as stated. i cannot locate mine on my 66 for whatever reason, be it it was painted over or the piece was replaced. if i remember what Glen told me correctly, it should be there under the lip of the fender on the drivers side where the notch is.
