I knew something seemed out of place looking at the front. It's about 1.5" wider (or longer, depending on how it is measured) than the previous gen. I would be interested in knowing what was the designers' logic for making the pony 20 - 25% bigger.

The pony on this car is an exact replica in size and shape to the one on the 64 1/2 mustang. That's why its that size.

We have a winner!
I believe they made the mold for the new grill from one off of a 64 1/2.

I didn't really notice until you brought it up though. I personally the larger grille needed a bigger emblem. Sorry George, you know I'm still on your side.

The 64 1/2 - 66 used the larger grill pony (as on the 05). I think (but not sure) the 67 used the same size pony but with the corral. The 68 grill pony was smaller than all previous years. The 68 pony is actually the exact same size as the 94-04 ponies. I have a 68 (metal) pony in place of the stock (plastic) pony on my 95 convertible (this can be done with minor modification). It's just kinda cool having the "vintage" pony riding on my 95 "the first retro re-designed" mustang.
