They had power disk brakes up front. Here is where you can locate the VIN. Where are your white Mavericks or Comets or whatever they are?

Did you even download the VIN information I gave you? Raise your hood and look at the inner fender on the driver's side near the shock tower and you will see a cut-out of the outer fender where it mates with the inner fender and the Warranty number (VIN) will be stamped into the metal there.

I thought the VIN moved to a plate on the left lower dash visible thru the windshield from 68 on.

That's nice to know - if I ever succumb to a Mustang other than a 64 to 66 - or a 2006 or 7.
