67 Wide Oval Release Issues
« on: September 01, 2017, 07:37:19 PM »
Sorry this took so long to respond to an earlier request.

The booklet this info comes from is a confidential  annual (have a number of these from different time period) meeting of managers and Ford reps. Looks like it was four day in length. Apparently this was a effort to respond to complaints, issues, customer relations, service publications, training and problems dealerships were having with the car and products as well as solutions or proposed solutions. Sometimes there some creative solutions other times just suggestions are made.

When discovered many years ago I found it very interesting since we had always just figured that the rolled fenders were a result of earlier owners of these cars modifying their cars for larger tires. The response in the document suggest that (like 69 and 7o Boss 302 without the incorporated rod)  there are two different versions of each 67 front fenders. One with the standard earlier style lip and the later (for wide oval tires and 390's)  style

I haven't taken the time to  look or document this modification in pictures or by VIN.  :(
