RE: Frame connectors wanted



" From: "Savage, Pete" <PSavage@xxxxxxxxxxx>

" In 1967 the feds passed an automobile safety act that mandated lots of
" new options to the cars of those days including, but not limited to:
" side marker lights, collapsible steering columns, dual piston master
" brake cylinders, seat belts, etc...

also 4-way flashers.  but 3-point seat belts weren't -required- until
'68 - maybe 1/1/68, like the reinforcements - though many '67s had
them as options, and i'm told -all- '67 mustangs had the hardpoints
under the headliner whether the belts were ordered or not.

there was also some embryonic smog law that cut in on 1/1/68 - lincoln
continentals changed engine mid-year from the lincoln-only 462 to the
shared 460.  a shame, as the 462 was made of better materials to much
closer tolerances, and 250000 miles without overhaul is not unknown -
much like the 4.0.
