64 1/2 thru 66 are same body style. 67-68 are a lil more beefy. 69-70 are beefier still and kinda "buff" lookin. after that, they're just plain big.

For the weights, have a look at:

http://www.e2cars.com/mustangpricesweights.htm

I know the rear (and assumingly the front also) track is 2" wider on a '67 than a '64-'66, although the spring perch is still the same distance apart.

If you have a dig through:

http://www.thecarsource.com/shelby/thecars.html

you might find some more info about the tracks and wheelbases.

Good luck
