I've been reading. (A little knowledge can be a dangerous thing!)

MUSTANG BUYERS GUIDE, page 73 pertaining to the '68 Shelby: "Sequentially flashing taillamps from the Thunderbird were used."

MUSTANG BUYERS GUIDE, page 78 pertaining to the '68 Shelby: Shelby's "sold in California were equipped with a circuit to prevent the sequential turn signal mechanism from working. Flashing turn signals would not pass inspection with that state's DMV."

MUSTANG Special Editions, page 40 pertaining to California Specials: "sequential '65 Thunderbird taillights (identical to the '68 Shelby units)"

Now my question: Which is correct, Sequential or Flashing? Or would it depend in which state the vehicle originally sold?

Hi Neil, CS's did not come with sequential tail lights. I think many have changed to sequentials, but are not original.
