My son's 90 LX coupe did not have the color matched mouldings. These look to be painted to match car.

That is not an accurate representation of a stock '89 5.0. It is not a completely original car. As I said...I believe they (side moldings) were painted on that car above and those are definitely not original wheels for that year.

Well, it's been 5 hours and no one's grabbed the reigns, so I'll throw one out there: 
Shouldn't be too hard.

Close! It's a '74. It was my parents' wedding car in '77, they've kept it to this day. It's got the original paint, 351W/2V, interior, AM radio, everything.
Keep this going!

My parents bought a '75 Elite new. It was Polar white with red cloth interior. Options included power windows, AM/FM radio, tachometer/gauges, A/C, and wire hubcaps. It was a great car, they traded it in for a new 1983 Cougar. When I was about six or seven, I could easily tell the year of a particular Elite: '74s had Gran Torino emblems, '75s only had the "Elite" badge, and '76s had half-vinyl tops.

That's why I was careful not to show emblems and to show just enough of the roof that one could see the two (opera?) windows, but not the whole roof.
