A link to the auction would be very helpful.

Window sticker is a reproduction in my opinion.

I suggest you contact the seller for pics if you are interested.  Get pics of the cowl tag, VIN tag and drivetrain stampings - engine, transmission and rear end.

Here are a couple of his feedbacks:
Terrible experience, seller said he would ship large item and he had a box. After auction ended he requested I buy a box. Then wrapped part part in cardboard and wanted me to pay extra $50 to ship. I paid $500 and he said he didn't have the money to ship the part. I offered to pay several times for shipping, but he wasn't able to provide a shipping cost. Please be careful. I had to seek a refund from eBay. Thank goodness for eBay's guarantee.
1965 mustang NOS front fender C5ZZ – 16006 – A (#284988503440)

Seller totally ghosted me, finally got back with a “I’m not available until the end of the month” after I contacted eBay Item was very expensive and had to have eBay step in to help get a refund Buyer beware.   D

Shouldn't be an opinion but fact that its a repo w/s.  Several errors.

True. But I am trying to be more “nice”.  Some days it’s a struggle.  😁

I asked for the photos.

Good day sir,

I'm interested in the 67. Could you please send me some good photos of the cowl trim tag and the engine block stamps.

Thank you.

We'll see what happens.

Well, the window sticker dealer does not match the NCRS shipping report dealer, so there is that.

I always thought that more than a few fake window stickers would be called out when the NCRS shipping repots became available.

Sent me this. Seems like I've seen this photo in another for sale post.

Still waiting on an engine stamp.

Somethings odd; I just tried to message him again on ebay but the user account is gone. Really odd is that the car is still listed.

It appears to be (to the untrained eye) a great piece of work. It’s just a not so great reproduction piece.

Let's get a look at that POP with L78/M20 combo on it. Ya know, for research purposes only.
