    1968 Brake Pedal Return Bumper

    So now that I have completed the work under the hood and am driving my '68, I noticed that when I release the brake pedal, it "clangs" back. So I figure there must be a missing bumper. As I was putting in an NPD order anyways, I looked it up and sure enough they sell it for a whole $1.50. So it...

    1968 How Did I Miss This?

    Missing Front Fender Emblems So now that I got all the stuff done to my car over the winter, I thought it was high time to wax it before the first cruise-in next week. As I was waxing the first front fender, I realized that I do not have the front fender Mustang script emblem. I looked on the...

    1968 Trunk Tailight Filler Cardboard

    Wow I had been procrastinating on doing my trunk tail light filler boards while I have been detailing the engine compartment and engine and doing it as correct as possible.

    1968 Heater Hose Routing

    What is the correct routing of the heater hoses for a 302 with AC? I have been looking at engine compartments of '68 Mustangs and they seem to be all over the place. Some have the return hose going to the intake manifold running to the inboard side of the valve cover while others are on the...

    1968 Hood Bumpers?

    I noticed that there are no front hood bumpers on my Car. In looking at pictures on the Net, it appears that there were adjustable bumpers on regular hoods. They were installed on the front brackets that our hood lock retains slip onto. There is a hole on each front corner of the hood. Do...

    1968 Trunk Tailight Filler Cardboard

    Wrong "filler" board. We are discussing the taillight panel boards. Wish they were as easy to install as the floor filler boards!

    1968 Trunk Tailight Filler Cardboard

    How did you get the Masonite to bend into a curve? I was thinking that something like 1/16 plastic would work nicely. Have no idea where to get that. Maybe black poster board :grin:

    1968 Trunk Tailight Filler Cardboard

    So, how wet do you get these cardboard fillers. Is it best to put them in wet or get them wet and then wrap them around something round and secure them until dry? So, how wet? Spray them with an atomizer bottle? Both sides? Baptize them in a bathtub?

    1968 Trunk Tailight Filler Cardboard

    Mike, Just took a closer look as my car was built on February 9th. I believe it was about the 150-175 CS built. Son of a gun, the screw holes are there. So, where they are situated, It looks like I do not bend the creases to a right angle. Just a slight bend should do it.
