That's odd that you mention it. Because the guy originally said the car
was a '67 with a 289 - so I was thinking it was a Mark II. He read me the
VIN over the phone and it was clearly a Mark 1 VIN. I did not look at the
VIN again. There was no side strips - Mark 1 or Mark II style. There was
a stock front grill - I think.
I should have written down the engine number on the valve covers. I could
call the guy and ask him what the numbers were on the cover if someone is
interested.
There was one other odd thing. The shifter was not standard and there
appeared to be a square hole around the base. Does the Mark II vary there
too? I had not thought so.
I was so overwelmed by the condition of the bent body and various spots of
rust that I kind of stopped absorbing more details.
