Were there and 66 Mustangs that were produced without the side trim? It looks like a 64 to me, but I want to ask. It does have a 66 grill.

On the 64 1/2/65 you could order the accent package. Among other things you got the pinstripe around the side recess and the chrome gee gaw deleted
from the quarter. That's why I ordered my 64 1/2 with accent groupe (see my sig pic). It was to delete the chome gee gaw from the quarter(s)
I believe a similar option was availible for 66.
