It looks ok to my non-expert eyes.
The "Mustang" was changed to a script/cursive style in '68.
('67s had the individual block letters much like the '65-'66 GTs.)

The engine size was added to the running pony emblems on V-8 '67-'68s.
His needs some color though

....I think the side marker lights were new for '68 too.

Well, it has not been lowered yet - I just put 15x8's on it instead of the
stock 14x6's. You can see several pix of the car at

Texas would be one - it is a no-no here.

An unexpected financial setback has put the Mustang project mostly on
hold. I am trying to get the 289 tuned up but beyond that I am not buying
anything new for a while. :-(
