If you’ve got a 1967 Mustang, it's likely that you’ve seen parts catalogs make a distinction between early and late production models. Several things about the 1967 Mustang changed during the course of the year. In this video, I’ll show you the parts that are different, and how to spot those differences.
Some background:
The notion that there is only two variations of the 1967 Mustang, early and late production, is incorrect. The reality is: Ford phased out parts at different times during the production year, and each of the 3 Ford plants had their own schedule. For example, the early San Jose cars all had solid shaft steering columns (except tilt-away optioned ones), not all late San Jose cars had rag joints.
In general, early 1967 Mustangs were built from August 1966 - December 1966, and late model is January to July. You can find the door tag with your build date on the edge of the drivers door.
Here's the door tag decoder: classicponycars.com/67data.html

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.

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.

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.

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 !

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

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.

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.
