Default 67 Mustang

Hi all,
I found this Mustang on a garage, and I know it's been there for the last 10 years. It doesn't have inssurance, it as been reproved in the last mandatory inspection (1997).
I can't contact the owner, because there is no one in the apartment corresponding to the place in the garage. The number plate correspoinds to a 1967 registration.
I don“t know if it is a 6 cylinder or a v8.
Is there a way to know just by the exterior differences? Wheels? Exhaust?
Of course I prefer a V8 so if it's not I probably won't bother to know more about the car!
Well, it's better a 6cylinderMustang than no Mustang at all!

Thanks for your help

Best regards

If you could post a few photos, side/rear/front, might make it easier.

Single exhaust? hubcaps? trim badges? etc.

Look inside if you can get close enough to set if its an auto or manual.

Might help make up your mind.

If no one has claimed/moved it, maybe the owner is "deceased".

A quick check with your local motor vehicles office may turn up any deliquent tax info.

Be nice to be able to transfer ownership for a few bucks of back taxes.

This doesnt go for everybody but alot of people abide by this rule. "Cars are like another man's wife, Look all you want but DO NOT touch." You might want to go by that rule until you find some more out about the car.

Hello,
Someone told me that the car is driven inside the garage, one or two times a month, that's probably why the tyres aren't flat.
It asa singleexhaust, on the rigth side. Can you please "translate" to me what are the lugs?
I believe that it's definitly a 6 cylinder car.
I think I'll wait to see the person that drives it monthly.
I'm a little disapointed that it's not a V8, but a Mustang is such a rare car in my country, that "if" the owner will sold it, I'll probably make the "sacrifice"

If it's all stock, that's a 6 banger going by the fender badge. 67 V8 would have 289 if it was a V8 car. (Unless bigblock I guess)

I was not sure about the picture, but it worked.
So here is another one.
Please give me your opinions.
Thanks.

Best regards
