    Also, don't they go by Alpha characters, C = 60's, D = 70's, E = 80's, and so on on most all Ford part numbers? I could be wrong or just mistaken. :):):) Bret

    First one I've seen with the cutouts for '67 style side vents on the drivers side under the side scoop. Was the rear quarter replaced with a '67? Interesting.... Bret

    1968 A much needed wonderful relaxing drive

    I agree totally with driving them rather than having them sit in a garage. Nothing better than windows down and a nice throaty exhaust to liven up the road. Mine was lacking the original drivetrain, so Concourse was not an option for me. My hat is off to Mike, Marty and the ones who have the...

    Yes, you have created some great memories. I let my Son drive mine a few years ago to the last day of high school. he still talks about it. I offered it to my Daughter, but she flat refused until it has power steering. your car looks great. Bret

    It's amazing how many comments I get on mine. If I remember right it's a '70 AM/FM 8 track. picked it up for $30 at the swap meet and it plays perfectly. Bolted right in the bezel. Still considering sending it out to get refurbed. I usually search Ebay for new unsealed tapes. been pretty lucky...

    1968 Engine compartment sheet metal

    My apron also needed replaced and part of the core support. I decided to cut out only the bad part on the core support and fabed a new section and welded in place. But, the battery apron, I replaced the whole thing. took awhile making sure everything was square, but it worked. Also had to...

    1968 Travelin' Man

    I'm game for another get together. The Bellevue Roundup would be a great place. Then after we could go find a nice restaurant, shoot the breeze and toss back a couple brew depending on how far everyone wants to travel. Maybe we should get a head count going now, so we know how many to expect...

    1968 oil change gone bad

    I got one for you..... On my Ridgeline I use a funnel to channel the fluid into my oil pan, because it always seems to overshoot the pan, so hold the funnel, unscrew the plug. good plan, but..... I always put an old rag in my funnel to keep fluid from running out when I store it. So, grab...

    For Sale Nice GTCS on ebay

    I see it has the square base on top of the fog light pedestals and is the fog light switch a toggle switch? Nice options tho, just needs to have Neils special touch and she will be better than factory. Bret
