    For Sale 1968 HCS Sunlit Gold C Code 289 Auto

    Careful wording of text says "powerfull 302 V-8" under the hood. 1968 was a funny year. After the Sept-Oct strike, most all of the 289 engines were assembled using 302 engine blocks. They still had 289 crank shafts, so the displacement was still 289 cubic inches. Some 1968 Ford and Mercury...
