Also depending if early or late production the tray would have the small 1/8 inch mounting holes for various applications with tilt canister . That is regardless of if the car came with tilt or not. Of course 67 Shelby did not come with tilt. They all got the tray with the mounting pattern depending on which time in production.  You can always add the holes to make the tray look convincing . But you don't want one with no holes on a early car and one with holes on a late production car. Just another little 67 nuance.
