Here is a rare one! It's a Deep Metallic Gold 1967 Mustang Limited Edition 400. It was sent in by site visitor, Gary, who noticed that we didn't have any photos of a Limited Edition 400 Mustang. These photos were taken soon after purchasing it new in 1967. He purchased it for his soon-to-be wife from C. Bradshaw, Inc. in Harvey, Illinois. Thanks Gary! Gary tells us more, "It was a special gold color with black vinyl top. It had black leather bucket seats with a 289 V8 with auto transmission and a floor console shifter. It had a 'Limited Edition 400' emblem on each of the front fenders. Everyone thought that it meant 400 cubic inches, but actually it designated a limited edition model of 400 cars for the Chicago market. A very sharp car and fun to drive. We eventually traded it in for a new Ford Maverick (DUMB)."

Here is a close-up of Gary's Deep Metallic Gold 1967 Limited Edition 400 Mustang. The '400' emblems are on the front fender just in forward of the front wheel opening.

mustang Here is a new one! This is an advertisement of a 1967 Limited Edition 400 special model for the Chicagoland area only as it states. We have found several versions of this advertisement published in the
Chicagoland area on December 8th, 1966. It says,
Announcing a new Limited Edition Mustang. Only 400 people in the USA will be driving one of these special Mustangs (and they'll all be in the Chicagoland Area). Mustang Hardtop - Limited Edition 400, built for the Chicagoland area only! Specially painted in a distinctive, deep metallic gold. Special high-style trim and deluxe equipment includes: new automatic/manual SelectShift Cruise-O-Matic, radio, deluxe wheel covers, "breather" hood louvers with turn signal indicators, bright-metal moldings at wheel cutouts and rear deck lid, Limited Edition 400 emblem on fender, personal nameplate on instrument panel. Order now - when these are gone there won't be any more! We are not sure what the
Limited Edition 400 fender emblem looks like but there is a drawing of the instrument panel nameplate. We found this ad for Bradshaw Ford in the December 8th, 1966, edition of the Blue Island Sun-Standard of Blue Island, Illinois. Blue Island is in the south part of Chicago. We've never heard of this special model before. If anyone has more information,
let us know.

This is another version of the 1967 Limited Edition 400 Mustang advertisement. This one is from Caparros Ford of East Chicago advertised in the December 15th, 1966 edition of the Hammond Times of Hammond, Indiana. This model appears to be optioned with many of the 1966 Sprint options but includes a deep gold metallic paint and fender and dash plates. Its possible that the gold one of the three special order Anniversary Gold paints listed for Ford Mustangs in 1967. We also found an advertisement by Barile Ford in December 8th, 1966, edition of the The Vidette-Messenger Valparaiso, Indiana near Chicago.

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.
