Would add that the battery test decal shown is not correct for a 67 built at San Jose in a number of ways.  None of the filled out information matches an original 67 SJ sticker.  The one shown is the one that is commercially sold and is based on a 69-73 Dearborn built Mustang or other Ford built at that plant stickers.

In addition for the engine compartment you would have an engine ID sticker, hard to see but it was there.

Additional ones outside the two areas discussed you have the tire pressure in the glove box and the shipping tie down behind or where the rear license plate would be located. If you want to go further you have all the wire loom labels/stickers but ID and assembler. Lots of people don't go that far.  There are others depending on options and such but will not mention those since I don't believe they apply to your specific car.



Here are three more pictures of the location of Plaza stickers on cars from the period your car was built and after.

To Jeff's post comment, I deleted the battery test sticker image in reply #345 above and here is a battery test sticker that should be more correct...

Why of course, since at 188 mph they self-detach for weight reduction.  8)

Jeff- Pete you guys are making it a little faster then intended! I think OL SHEL went 175 mph on the Goodyear test track not 187... I think the goal of 177 is still within range of what it is capable of! After having a total knee replacement it might be for a younger guy to give it a go, will have to see- just a little detour thats all.

Wonder (getting distracted from what I should be working on ::)   what the max/top speed (someone smart here will likely figure it out) of a similar vehicle just dropped from a great height.   Oh well passing thought back to today's focus.
