    1968 Fog Light Pedestal

    1968 Fog Light Pedestal

    1968 Fog Light Pedestal

    For Sale 68 GTCS no 2 of the assy line

    Actually the vinyl top was remove quite a few years ago. Monterey is very close to the ocean and even in a carport the salt air gets after cars with a gusto. I have looked at vintage motorcycles that were in San Francisco. They were horribly rusty. Not sure what the total condition of this...
