Model year 1967 marked the first year the Mustang received any major styling revisions. The chassis remained unchanged, but the front end was most notably altered and can best be described as ‘larger.’ The headlight moldings, grille, and simulated scoops were all enlarged versions of the previous Mustang’s and achieved a more focused appearance with a little bit more flair; many consider the 1967 Mustang to be the most attractive model of all.

Finished in yellow with a silver rocker stripe, this Mustang has an attractive gray interior, a crate Cobra Jet 428 V-8 engine with various aftermarket components, automatic transmission with overdrive, upgraded radio, later taillights, Shelby-type 10-spoke wheels and Cobra Jet badging. The car is reported to have been built in a similar manner to the Shelby GT 500 for Ray Scherr, except Mr. Scherr wanted the car to be a bit understated and not have Shelby emblems. Both the engine and transmission have been tuned for freeway speeds and drivability, it is a very comfortable and easy car to drive. The popularity of the 1960s Mustangs has never waned and the brand has been elevated to the status of American icon. It is no surprise that the Mustang has always been and forever will be the world’s best-selling pony car.
