Thanks guys for the update. Mine is a Factory GTA with a lot of GT features.
All factory correct Mustangs that came equipped with the GT Equipment Group option, regardless of transmission type, should have "
all of" not "
a lot of" GT features. It is a finite list.
The list of GT Equipment Group features does
not include these items:
1. Styled Steel Wheels, sometimes incorrectly referred to as "GT Wheels", and available on any V8 equipped Mustang.
2. Vented hood, often misnamed the "GT Hood", which was part of the Exterior Decor Group option (for 1967), and available on any Mustang.
There are other misconceptions, but those are the two most common that come to mind.
What also confuses some is when they see a 390 GT equipped Mustang that does not have the GT Equipment Group option. Ford named this particular 390 S-Code engine the "390 GT" engine. In this case, the "GT" designation of the engine has nothing to do with the GT Equipment Group. Of course, cars could have been factory ordered with both.
A base car ordered with the 390 GT engine option, and nothing else except what might be required to get the 390, does not make the
car a GT.
You may know all of this already, but since there is ample confusion out there, someone down the road might read this and learn something.
