Old and New

I saw this older Mustang in the parking lot today and snapped some pics. I don't know what year it is.

What else gives it away besides the lower side vents? I barely caught those in the first pic.

No reflectors in the rear quarter panel. 1968 was the first year Ford put rear reflectors in the quarter panel. Its hard to tell between the two years, as they are VERY similar.

FORD lettering on the leading edge of the hood, pony in the grille for 68 didin't have the cross bars like the '67 and of course the side scoops

Yep, this is the only way I can tell 'em apart. They also have the side marker in the front 1/4 panel, too

And people say the '15 front end is not Mustang. Its practically a carbon copy with the angles just a little more pronounced.

I use to think only the 68 had turn Signals in the hood, but some 67 did too, the reflector is a good clue, so is the chrome ring around the edge of grill in the 68, and the center of the steering is very padded in the 68.

Camero 67 doors has A pillar triangle window and the roll down window, 68 with Astro ventilation only has the one roll down window.

Thanks for great photos,
