Ken, If it is a 67.5 the interior "chrome" is really satin silver.
Also, the most noticable feature is the gauge setup. 66 and 67 have
water temp, tach, oil pressure, speedo, ammeter, clock, fuel as
separate
chrome gauges. The 67.5 combines the water temp and oil pressure, and
ammeter and fuel. these are enclosed in black bezels. the dash is black
instead of grey.  the wiper switch is on the far left side of the dash
in the form of a pull swich. only 3 switches are on toggles on the
dash.
door pulls are more like late model cars.
the master cylinder is the late model tandem style.

here is the beauty of it, if the car is a 67.5. The transmission hump
is cut out for the 2000 5 speed. should you so desire, a U20 and 5
speed will go in without cutting up the car.

well, there are some of the differences, I,m sure there are more I
havn't covered. Whatever it is sounds like you scored!

Oh, almost forgot! yes all 67 and 67.5 were low windshield
