Spec & history — the 1967 Ford Mustang
The 1967-onward post-April line change + K-code 289 HiPo carryover.
The 1967 Ford Mustang is the 1967-onward fourth-year 108-inch Ford pony-car unibody. The 1967-onward post-April 1967 line change (a revised K-member / front subframe / fender-tag stamping family) is the documented 1967-onward chassis discriminator - a 1967 chassis with a pre-April K-member stamping reads as mis-decoded at the chassis level. The 1967-onward K-code 289 HiPo 271 hp optional engine chain carryover from the 1964½ launch anchors the engine cross-check.
The 1967-onward Top Loader 4-speed manual / Ford C4 three-speed automatic chain is the documented transmission line. The 1967-onward Plum Crazy (Ford code X) first-year launch color anchors the paint chip against the pre-April and post-April line segments.
Concourse deep-dive — the 1967 Ford Mustang
Judging rubric, factory-correct finish, casting walk.
A 1967 Ford Mustang is judged on the 1967-onward post-April line change (the revised K-member / front subframe / fender-tag stamping family), the 1967-onward K-code 289 HiPo 271 hp optional engine chain, the 1967-onward Top Loader / C4 chain, and the 1967-onward Plum Crazy (Ford code X) first-year launch.
Engine casting walk on the 1967 drivetrains: the 1967-onward K-code 289 HiPo 271 hp optional carries the C7OE-prefix casting distinct from the 1965-onward C5OE-prefix chain. The 1967-onward A-code 200 hp carryover is the base-engine chain. A 1967 chassis running a 1968-onward C8OE-prefix casting reads as mis-restored at the casting level.
