1967 Mustang GTA S code torque box gusset
« on: February 19, 2016, 03:17:31 PM »
I have a 1967 Mustang GTA S code dec build. I'm putting in a torque box but wasn't sure if it supposed to have the gusset on it. Here are two pictures, one with and one without.

Thanks for your help,
Travis

Not sure where your examples came from

Guessing your working on your - 1967 Mustang GTA S Code, Fastback, San Jose, Built Dec. 13, 1966 (Thermactor)

Looking at other December 67 San Jose examples your car would not have had the "gusset" you show in the first picture

I have a Dec 66 build FE car. No gusset on mine either.

To my knowledge the gusset was first used on the 68 model.
