Buyer Checklist
⚠ Clone warning: Non-matching engine reduces value 25-40%. K-code and Shelby matching numbers are critical — enormous value difference.. Always verify with cowl tag, engine stamp, and registry before purchase.
Pull Marti Report — most important document for 1967 Mustang authentication
Decode door data plate — verify paint, trim, transmission, and axle codes
Check engine suffix code on block pad for numbers-matching
Inspect floor pans — front and rear — most common rust location
Check torque boxes at front of rear floor pans — known failure point
Inspect lower cowl area for rust and water intrusion
Verify convertible top mechanism and frame for rust (convertibles)
On K-code — verify solid lifter cam and correct carburetor date codes
On Shelby — verify Shelby serial number tag on door and Shelby registry
Check lower rear quarter rust and door skin rust at bottom edges
Known Problem Areas
Floor pan rust — front and rear, most common issue
Torque box failure at rear floor pan junction
Cowl rust under windshield
Lower door and quarter panel rust
Clone Shelbys — regular Mustangs converted to GT350/GT500 appearance
Clone K-codes — standard 289 engines swapped for Hi-Po appearance
Convertible frame rust and structural weakening
