The car in Bob's photo could be a '64 1/2. '65 or '66. The sheet metal was almost identical and the taillights were interchangeable.<br /><br />What reveals Bob's photo as a '66 is a subtle change in chrome on the "vent" in front of the rear fender.<br /><br />In '66 Ford came out with the chrome ribs that made the fake vent look like it was actually four fake vents.<br /><br />The chrome "vents" on the '64 were much less pronounced.<br /><br />The '67 has two fake vents.<br /><br />Many restored Mustangs are shown without those chrome vents, which may indicate that they were an option.<br /><br />The 1964-65 Mustangs had a chrome bar through the center of the front grille, interrupted only by the Mustang Pony logo.<br /><br />The '66 had a grille like the one in Bob's photo.<br /><br />I'm pretty sure it's a '66...<br /><br />Now ask me about GTOs.Michael Sanbornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06523147171085428754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2123919364122433432.post-50492247462920826692012-01-07T16:18:06.524-07:002012-01-07T16:18:06.524-07:00jt may well be right that the pictures here are of...jt may well be right that the pictures here are of a '66, but check Google images for "1964 Mustang."Bob Newlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05388226473052858297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2123919364122433432.post-37793247328924976372012-01-07T13:53:14.803-07:002012-01-07T13:53:14.803-07:00"Pristine 1964 'stang" no such anima..."Pristine 1964 'stang" no such animal.
