Saw this last weekend. A friend has something of an obsession with Mustangs at the moment and when I send him this photo, he will ask what year it is.
Anyone able to id it for me please?

Mustang by Jim Pritchard, on Flickr

1967 Hardtop I think.

The "intakes" ahead of the rear wheels look more like a '68 to Me than '67:

Yes, Wow indeed - that is rare.

Rather too many Dagenham Dustbins in this thread of late.

ETA ... and Detroit Dustbins too.

[Schmeeky]

A rare sight nowadays - spotted in the works car park. These always seemed to be in CAR Magazine's yearly top ten where they thought them an unsung hero. I can well imagine - 30 years ago Citroen were still 'proper' Citroens!

AX

Visa isn't it?

[Iva Barchetta]

Yes it is.

Feel free to show where it states: "No Fords allowed in this thread".

The interesting thing is, it seems that there are far more old/classic Fords that have been kept one way or another over the years than offerings from General Motors (be it either a Vauxhall or Opel).

Is this an indication that the owners of the GM cars had less attachment to their cars than Ford owners did?

[elgassi]

just a real classic car and plate

I'm really not the person to ask about this, I hate Vauxhalls even more than Fords!

Well, tell us what you do find acceptable and we'll seek them out for you.

[Yertis]

From looking at his profile, Hillman Imps and... Fords. Plus the usual Porsche stuff and so forth..

[Evangelion]

Admittedly I did own a Capri and a Fiesta (not at the same time) but that was years ago. There have been a few Fiestas since, but in my defence I only had them for driving tuition.

Wow! Norton 250 Jubilee............

There she is again, steppin' out of her limousine
Lookin' like the cover on a twenty dollar magazine

The limousine was her Scirroco. Everything else was as per the Humble Pie quote. And she was talking to this old duffer about sourcing a G60 engine for the car but not badging as a G60, just adding a very discreet 'Supercharged' badge. Made my day.
