Could this be one of the Chicagoland 1967 Limited Edition 400 Mustangs? A viewer sent us this photo set of his Mustang with a non-standard gold paint under the later added white. It also has rear panel holes where a badge might have been. A Marti report might confirm more since the door data tag is missing due to a door replacement.

This is one of two advertisements we found for the Nebraska Centennial Special Hardtop Sports Sprint edition 1967 Mustang which included one of four "Special Centennial colors", 6-cylinder engine, white sidewall tires, full wheel covers, functional louvered hood, rocker panel moldings, chrome air cleaner, decal and vinyl covered shift lever (for automatic transmissions), and optional luggage rack. The four "Special Centennial colors" are named Centennial Blue, Lincoln Green, Summer Wheat, and Big Red. The advertisement shown has parts of a full page by O'Shea-Rogers Motor Co in the March 26th 1967 edition of the Lincoln Star Sun. See the third image for the complete ad. We have not found one of these Mustang's yet but would expect them to have a 6 digit DSO code staring with a 54 for the Omaha Nebraska ordering district and a blank paint code.

This is a rare one. It's a 1967 Mustang Shelby GT-500 hardtop! It was the first and only one built by Shelby - called "Little Red". Although more 1967 hardtops where built by Shelby, it was the inspiration for the 1968 California Special. This GT-500 had twin Paxton Superchargers on a 428ci engine. It is reported to have been crushed as most prototypes were.
