Some of the Ford loyal will dispute this but Ford was notorious for running production changes. It could be possible that a late production 67 could have some 68 features. I have ran into late production Fords using parts from the next year. I've even owned a couple.
ND listed differences I did not know about and there are a couple more according to Fordification. One is a 67 only ash tray and also the instruments are wired in differently.

ford did some strange things back in the day , so it's probably a late 67 so they used what they had at that plant .

my 68 is a early 68 has the 67 visor/rear view mirror and the narrow side trim .
I've seen alot of this mismatching with early Mustangs too.

Yea but we'll never know if it was a mid yr change. Or the guy came across all the stuff at some point from a junk yard. So many yrs have going by, just like were all doing with 3g & o/d trannys,, Oh well nice looking rig setup for the outdoors man. Plus PO has even changed the motor out..

Yes it is a nice truck by any standard, despite year labeling or perceived anomalies. The painted front bumper bothers me some and would indicate this truck has had some "attention"

It's not a 1967. With this type of heater control panel (2 sliding levers w/blower switch), it's C8TZ-18549-A = 1968/72 F100/350 without factory A/C.

Here's a pic of a 1968/72 F100/350 A/C-Heater Control Panel with factory A/C (C8TZ-19980-A). It's similar to the 1968/72 heater only control panel.

It's full of mixed parts like 67 ash tray, doors so we all have our different options Right Even tho all later yr parts could be installed. Heater box and all..
So it's must be a like a Bast Ard truck!

Left: Here's a pic of the 1967 only dash, notice the 3 ***** that are used with the heater.

Right: Here's a pic of the 1968/72 dash, notice the heater control panel.

In order to install a 1968/72 heater panel in a 1967, you'd have to cut a hole in the dash...and would also have to swap in a 1968/72 heater...since the 1967 heater is 1967 only.

Can you tell a 1967 ashtray from a 1968/72 when it's closed?

btw: I looked at the pics again, the left door is from a 1967 as it doesn't have a lock ****.

The hood side emblem is 1967, but the marker lamp on the front fender wasn't installed on F250/350 Camper Specials until 1968.

67 only had that. Ya the doors may be changed as other stuff but it's doubtful.

Hey Ras? You ever lived in Ketchakan Alaska?
Gee whiz Tricky, you live on Prince of Wales Island, but you misspelled Ketchikan which is across the Inside Passage from it.

As you know, I've been to Ketchikan 4 times on AK cruises (actually we've been on 5 AK cruises, the one we took in 2013 didn't stop there).

2004, the first year I was there, a house was burning that was located above the tunnel that takes traffic from the downtown area.

Came back in 2005, there was an vacant lot where the house stood...it was still vacant in 2012.

So if a 67 had serious enough damage to necessitate cab replacement when it was a few years years old, did Ford still sell a 67 cab or would it have been superseded to a 68 style? For the sake of argument let's say the doors did not need replaced. Maybe it was when it reached the magical age were they no longer supported 67 parts but the 68-69 stuff was still in the system. I'm not speculating, just curious if that is a possible scenario.

I doubt than someone would buy a new cab from Ford, if the truck was several years old.

Usually cabs are only available for the current model year, which would have been in the range of 1969/72, if the '67 was a few years old.

I was more asking how the system worked than speculating on what someone might have done back then.

The fender maker lights are added on, they are to high and incorrect style.

Mainly because the difference is so great between heater controls Ford would not have replaced the 1967 cab with a 68/72 part number. If they were both pull **** style but ,say,slightly different location...maybe. But not going from 3 holes to a big rectangular hole with retainer tabs.
IMHO this truck was put back together with JY parts. Rust,body damage,etc. Who knows, a JY themselves may have pieced it together and then sold?
