Welcome, 67 Fastback one of my favorate Fords (shhh don't tell anyone). Lots of places Roseville is a great place to get parts. I just got my Classic Industries catalog and an impressed by the selection of parts and they'll price match, though I have not dealt with them before. So lets see some pics and throw up some of the Mustang also  :2thumbs:
