Do you mean that will go with an alarm to lock it or some other way?

This site has the various twist locks that came on the older Mustangs.

Um...there was no '67 Mach 1? First year for the Mach was '69...

As far as the twist locks ago, it's either adapt a set from a vintage pony (there are reproductions available) or go with Quik Latch pins you want something modern/slick with the classic look:



The Quik-Latches are pricey, but beautifully made.

Another option, not similar to a quarter turn latch but not a regular cheap pin.

Aerocatch latches



Are about 80-120$ and are good quality. I bought a set about a year ago and would recommend them to anyone.
