    1968 Sway Bar End Links

    Here is a photo of a collection of end link sleeves I've collected over the years, and the link I just removed from a "restored" GT/CS. As you can see the sizes vary a little. At the risk of opening up a can of worms, will someone please post the correct sleeve length (2 1/4"?), and diameter...

    1968 Engine Question

    Where are the block drains? Are they the treaded plugs at the rear of the engine on the driver side, and front of the engine on the passenger side?

    Interesting. It looks like Ford made a few changes to the block in ‘66.

    1968 Tail light trouble

    It may be corrosion or wear on the contacts. Can you remove the bulbs and clean the nubs on the pigtails? Are they worn down?

    1968 GPS Tracking

    Do any of you have a GPS tracking system for your cars in case they are stolen? Since road trip season is around the corner I'm thinking about getting one, but have no idea where to start. From what I've read AirTags won't work unless the thief is part of the tracking network. Thanks

    1968 GT/CS & HCS stripe decal kits? Any favorite vendors?

    Sticky-backed. They aren't difficult to install as long as you're methodical. I slice the backing in the centers of the stripes and work one side, then the other, from the center. An LED laser helps. Some people use soapy water, then press out the water. I prefer installing them dry.

    1968 GT/CS & HCS stripe decal kits? Any favorite vendors?

    We’ve talked about some guy that makes the stripes who everyone said was the best, but I can’t remember his name. One of the other old timers may know. Edit: This is from one of Neil’s earlier posts, so that is probably who we discussed. Graphic Express 965 US 41 Inverness, FL 34450 Tel...
