Interesting piece on picking up a '67 GT350.

Great story, any one know the car #, appears to have upper scoop lights.

Scoop lights, but looks like a 2 piece front grill, chrome light surrounds and GT350 badge in grill which wouldn't be correct for an early car.  Magstars appear to have black insets and the side stripes are the style for the '66 and '68 cars.

There are two-piece grill cars with the scoop lights - car #112 is one. 

Not unusual for restored cars to get the four chrome headlight trim rings, most prefer the look (the car I has got them but I converted it back to how it should have been for that cars build) and it does have the over-the-top stripes so it has been modified.  There are also cars that have hade the scoop light added because some like them.  '67 are not easy - too many variables.
