hey glen what is that metal slent looking box in between the frame rail and the fender
That would be one of those things they call a torque box.. I bet you dont have one on the passenger side do you? My 67 dosent, wouldnt be a bad idea to put one in.

nice lookin ride, and you look like a friend of mine stationed in Japan.. lol. cept for the beard..
Yeah, that's the torque box. My old gal doesn't have even one. They came out in 67 I believe for the coupes and fastbacks, but the verts had them back in 65-66. The 67 coupes and fastbacks only had one on the driver's side.

The only numbers you have to worry about is the 7T01C179006 that is stamped on the inner fender. There were 179006 Mustangs just like yours produced in 1967. I saw a 1967 GTA in the parking lot of Brookshire Brothers grocery store a few days ago. Now, that is a collectible.

Metuchen, NJ

So Glen, if his has the number 179006 on it, would it be the last one for the 67 year? That would be cool as hell really..

have any idea how many manufacturers would kill someone just to sell 180,000 units in one year, let alone just one type of 3 different ones? As in Coupe, Fastback, and Vert? Thatsa pile of cars, and also why 6 cylinder and base V8 Stangs done bring massive wads of cash, theres simply too many of them around.

Rarest car I have is 1 of 276, second rarest is 1 of 3500. My Mustang is nowhere near rare..
