Actually the correct answer is 1965. The 1965 Mustang GT's could be ordered with the GT Equipment package which included among other things grille mounted fog lamps.
Sorry But The foglights that were part of the Mustang G.T. Package for 65/66 Were called "sport lamps" and they were by no means considered "headlamps". They were an option,So Mustangs didn't come with them in 65/66 which was available outside of the G.T. Package.In 69 A Mustang Had four headlights. "PB289"
Sorry Ponyboy289 but I admit that the 1965-1970 Mustangs were one of the best Mustangs ever produced by Ford. 1971-1973 not so much. I also will try my darndest to own a 1964 1/2-1970 Mustang unless I find something newer that I like.

No.14 .... I forgot what "section" of the site I was in!!! 
...Yes, the original 6 cyl came with a 200 ci ....
AKA...IMO...There is No 1964 1/2 Mustang!!!! Thery were a 1965 Models introduced on April 17, 1964.....It was Mustang peeps that started to change that, not Ford Mo Co!!!!
Does this mean that a 2007 Shelby GT500 introduced in May, 2006 is a 2006 1/2 ???? <<<No!
1965 was "Fog" lights, NOT headlights...the 1969 Model had 4 Head Lights.... This thread is a lot of fun!!

Unfortunately or fortunately I'm away from the computer today,I'm welding a floor pan in a 66 stang(Taking a quick warm up break.....brrrrr). So I can't grade or comment anymore today. I will be back in here first thing in the morning. I'm pleased people are liking this thread.Like I said we'll let it play out for a while,It's a long time until spring so I'll be putting a bunch more trivia up. Later.....
P.S. As a Hardcore 65-66 Guy I have always agreed on the 64 1/2 bit I can pretty much name or show every early 64 part vs 65 vs 66 parts . So I know they were different but I really don't subscribe to the whole "64 1/2" bit either. One thing though which applies to my questions there were some funny/unique things about the early cars (Like the 15" steel wheel option) ,So when I say "64 1/2" I'm referring to or including the early production cars. Later all........

Ok so I answered the questions before reading the thread and after reading through it i've realized that i got more wrong than i thought right!!! Bummer!
1969 had 4 headlights? Since when, i thought they were fog lights?
1968 was the first year for 302 & collapsable steering? I thought they were introduced as options along with the cosmetic changes in 1967?
Wasn't a 427 offered in 1967 or was that just on the shelby?
Im loving this. Really Interested!
GOOD I'M GLAD I FIGURE IT'S A GOOD WAY TO KILL SOME TIME DURING THE WINTER. "PB289"
