Something doesn't add up as the green 67 has a later rear valence panel.
Texas Swede

Yes, if it is #156 then it seems as though a few thing have been "changed" over the years, some noted in the registry.

The grill in the images does not look to be the angled/slanted - note the strip along the lower edge of the upper section.  If it is they cut it to locate the kill switch which would be a shame.  Four chrome trim rings on the headlights and as Texas Swede noted the rear valance is the later version, too late for #156.  It does seem to have early flat tail light panel.

I would think #156 would have the plates for the inboard grille hi-beams. 

The Upper Scoop Lights were noted in the registry as having been removed at one time.  That might explain why the ones on the car look to be a different style and located back a bit more than originals.

Looks like the owner has a real running and enjoys it, must get a lot of attention if France!

Rich, have you figured out which car the '67 with the outboards yet?

Thanks all for posting.

Hey!!! Claude drove your '66 Coupe...Nice to see him behind the wheel of a Hi-Po Mustang again even if it's not a R model.

This '68 looks nice. The front license plate nearly blocks the entire lower grille area, good thing it's only a GT350.

JD,
Lot of good points. Check out the YouTube video in reply #11. It shows the car does indeed have the plates for the grille light mounting. It also does appear to be a vertical upper grille with that lower strip. Good catch. I'll update our posted list.

The Acapulco blue car is #2607. It was also at the 2010 Mans Classic up for auction.
