My 67 is built in April 67 in New Jersey. It has the early door hinges,gas line, and one piece steering column. It does have the later plastic water bottle. What I have learned is different factory' s did different things and changed part when ever they ran out of the other.
Very interesting, My 67 was also built in April at the Metuchen, NJ plant, It has one piece steering shaft, late gas line, plastic water bottle, early style trunk hinges, late style door hinges, and late style brake lines.
Mine's early 67 from the San Jose plant The schedule build date was October 5th 1966 and it was actually built on October 11th 1966 Sold at University Motors in San Diego California and sometime in its life made its way 1300 miles to Missouri
Thanks for this information, I just ordered some brake lines and was confused about the early and later model designations. Sounds like I am a late model since my 67 convertible came out of the Dearborn plant in May of 1967. I have the wiper plastic container, hinges and other items you listed. This helped alot!
My san jose 67 fb has early door hinges that you say and a collapsible wader fluid bag, a flexible steering. But my instrument cluster and wire loom is 68. The VIN tells me that my car was made in Dec 67.
Hello, on my 67 mustang coupe built in San Jose in November 66, the Service Specification Decal on the shock tower is that of the 65-66 models without the black at the bottom. It seems to be the original one because it is old and yellowed. Very interesting video !
Mickael Joannes ...my Uncle worked at the Ford plant right out high school in '66, so he may have worked on your car....and FYI: the plant was actually located in Milpitas, Calif, a smaller city that borders San Jose to the north...🇺🇸✌🏻
The world is small! maybe he was the one who put the wrong sticker on mine (-: I read that they were finishing old models of service spec stickers. I didn't know it was Milpitas, thanks! (Sorry for my bad English, it's google translate because I'm French.) Thank you !
Early production 67s also had different motor mount configuration, it changed in jan 67 . to a different rubber isolated angle and don't line up with your lower Mets. On early aug to dec models
@@ClassicNation based on the date code, mine was built on the 22nd of Feb in the New Jersey plant. Just found the original build sheet taped to the wire harness under the dash and have the original bill of sale where my parent bought the car new on March 8, 1967 in Buford GA.
On my early 67 Vert, I noticed something on the under-dash wiring harness. The connection to the wiper/washer foot switch is made by four individual female spade connectors. This is different from the other three later 67 cars, where there is a larger multi plug that snaps in place.
We should note the different motor mounts on early production v8 . Word I got is they change the angle of the rubber isolator . Subsequently if you order aftermarket replacement for an early 67 they won't line up J Harden
@@ClassicNation Yeah, it had the running Mustangs embossed on the seat back in 66 and the 67's didn't but it carried over to some of them. Very cool. I suspect because they were left over so probably an early production run thing.
I thought the early 67' s had the brake line over the column and the later 67's had them under? I have a FoMoCo bag wiper bottle, lines over the column and both brake lines and fuel lines travel through the Trans Tunnel. Later 67's the fuel lines run along the rocker.
Have you figured out how many 67 mustangs were produced in Frost Turquoise? And how many are still on the road? I know 470,000 mustangs were made in 67. And around 19,000 in frost turquoise. I'm curious how many are still on the road.
So wait, is the car in the video a late or early 67 Mustang? I got confused with the brake and fuel line section. I am trying to figure out my car based on those lines, because I have a a March production car, that appears to have early and late parts.

Nice.
Thanks!
Got my 67 mustang since 3 months and i didn't even know that.
Nice vid!
Thanks!
Early '67 front bumper guards had rubber strips and the later ones were all chrome. Cheers!

I didn't know that. Thanks for the info!
I have an early model. I bought Lakewood muscle mounts for it. Spent many hours trying to install them. Now I know why they don’t fit.
I believe the neutral safety switch wiring harness is also different.
Some great information. My 67 was built in Feb but still has many of the early mustang parts for that year.
Mine was built in February too! Was was your date code on the door tag? I wonder how close our cars are...
@@ClassicNation based on the date code, mine was built on the 22nd of Feb in the New Jersey plant. Just found the original build sheet taped to the wire harness under the dash and have the original bill of sale where my parent bought the car new on March 8, 1967 in Buford GA.
Motor mounts changed mid way through 67 as well as radio options.
I didn't know that. How did they change?
Great video. Had no idea about these.
Thanks!
I had a ‘67 the same color as the one behind you! It had a six w/o power anything but it was good looking 🚗

I had to give up put a universal mount kit in worked great
My 67 convertible has old style hinge on the drivers side and new style on the passenger side.
Ha, that is wild. It sounds like Ford was installing whatever they found on the shelves. :)
I think there were 2 styles of day /night mirror switches too.
My 67FB has the newer door hinges
Wow Mustang,nice!
I can add something here. Some 67's came with the Pony interior. I know because my girlfriend had one.
Yes, the Deluxe interior was an option starting in '67. I believe they called it Pony interior in '66 and earlier.
@@ClassicNation Yeah, it had the running Mustangs embossed on the seat back in 66 and the 67's didn't but it carried over to some of them. Very cool. I suspect because they were left over so probably an early production run thing.
My 67 had a 289 and 3 speed manual transmission. Single exhaust. I was 16 when I got it. The wiring harness burned. My dad sold it for $300.00
I thought the early 67' s had the brake line over the column and the later 67's had them under? I have a FoMoCo bag wiper bottle, lines over the column and both brake lines and fuel lines travel through the Trans Tunnel. Later 67's the fuel lines run along the rocker.
Yes, I think you're right.
@@ClassicNation I just got my Marti Report yesterday. December 21st 1966 date of production. 6 days early.
WHAT ABOUT COSMETIC? WERE THE DASHES THE SAME? AND WAS THERE A DIFFERENCE IN THE WORD MUSTANG (IMBLEM)ON FRONT FENDER?
Thank you sir send America a question what do you think one would be worth now 1967 convertible pretty much everything original? Thank you.

Are there some 67’s that have the trim pieces on the trunk lid and around the taillights like you typically see in 68’s?
Yes, exactly. Some have it, some don't.
Classic Nation was it an option?
Exterior decor options had to be ordered
At 1:46 is there a bolt and washer missing (a few inches below the existing one)?
Can the rag joint be replaced with out removing the engine on a 68 with Borg. power steering? Whats the best approach?
Good question. I've never tried that. You should ask the people on the Vintage Mustang Forum. I'm sure someone has a good answer for you there.
I dont know if you’ll see this but is that mustang for sale?
Recently found out the neutral safety switch is different… early to late… don’t ask me how
My favorite yr of the mustang 1967 GT 390 engine 4 speed
Did 67's have the 289 badge? Or just 65 and 66?
Yes they did, on the front fender just behind the front wheel with the running horse logo emblem.
@@ClassicNation I have never seen one on a 67. Only 65 and 66. And it was in front of the wheel wells.

@Classic Nation I see what your saying. Yes, my pony badge has the 289 on it. I'm talking about the badge that just says 289, with the V under it.
@@hughphillips67Mustang On what part of the car? That emblem on the side of the car is the only spot on the exterior of the car that would have a 289 badge…
68 has side markers
True, but this video is about early and late 1967 models.
How bout the tail lights, my 67 had inny taillights but I've seen some 67s with outty taillights like the 68s.
What do you mean?
@@ClassicNation ,I mean my taillight lenses were flush with the trunk valance with a chrome bezel opposed to the taillight lenses that protrude out of the trunk valance .
The audio in your intro/outro is the worst, please tame it down
Sure just for you hahaha
