66 for sure, 66 quarter ornaments have long fingers, 65 are closer to the little chrome strip of 68... and the grille, as mentioned.

Better be careful! You may be standing next to a small child when you take the picture and be considered a "Fat Slob" by the Mustang's owner or certain members.

Just because you are enjoying a classic!


I agree it's a 66 , nice color even on the cell phone!!

Question... Why does everybody that doesn't know much about classic mustangs automatically guess the year of your car to be a 67, 68, or 69? I mean heck, half the time it is older people who ask, you would think they would have a better Idea since the cars did come from their time period. Lots of people guess my car to be a 69 or 70, Come on! They don't even look similar. I don't know, I don't mind telling somebody about it, but I hate it when somebody comes up to talk to you and they act like they know more about your car than you do. Oh, and they've always had one, or had a friend that had one, ect. But you know they are full of crap because they would know at least what year it wasn't if they owned one themselves. Oh well, like I said, I don't mind telling people about it, so its all good. Oh, and this wasn't meant to offend the OP.

zMost people knw itza 60s model, and after such, the ole guessing game starts. Itza a 66 by the way itza dressed with the ornaments. Nice car though.
