    For Sale NOS parts for sale

    Hey Neil, Actually I forgot that this bumper I have is a front bumper. I had another but got rid of that. I paid $450 for it. To be honest I have not even opened the shipping box that it came in when I bought it. I'd want to look at it and then let you know that all is ok if you are...

    1968 Opinion PB Poster

    Thanks for the info Dalorzo. Is there any way I can tell if the master that is on the car is the original? If so I'd like to try to use that. I'll do some research but also would be interested in knowing more about the process of bleeding the brakes. I've never done it but always intrigued...

    1968 Opinion PB Poster

    Thanks for the info, everyone. One additional question....is this a complicated install for a weekend mechanic? I would say I'm a very handy person but not in any way an experienced mechanic. What is the level of difficulty? Dare I try this install myself?

    1968 Opinion PB Poster

    Need an opinion from some of you that are far more knowledgeable on these issues. Our CS was originally a power brake car. It still has the PB pedal but the original owner at some point removed the booster and just used manual brakes. We bought a restored booster. I was having someone put it...

    The PS pump was on the car when we bought it. I assumed it was the original one. Maybe not?

    1968 Walter lookin' good

    Thanks. We've decided to leave Walter exactly as he was with his original owner for 46 years....painted valve covers, quirky air cleaner, hood scoop, bad chip touch-ups and all....

    1968 Walter lookin' good

    Took a couple of pics of Walter after a bit of paint work. Trunk was very oxidized and the original paint needed some careful attention. The results are not bad for a 48 year old paint job! By the way, Walter is the name Sara gave her car. Its the first name of the original owner from whose...

    1968 off-topic - Not a CS but a '68

    Just purchased this very nice all-original time capsule. 1968 SS396, 36k miles, auto, air, and an unrestored car. Its originally a TX car but now in Canada. Will take a few weeks to get it down to ATL. Pretty excited to add this to our other '68's (GT/CS and F100). Steve...

    1968 Power Steering Pump Teal color Paint Source

    Just curious but you mention the painting of the dipstick. Were they painted the teak color like the pump? Sara's CS has what looks to be the original pump painted a teal color but the dipstick top itself is painted an off-white/creme color. It is peeling off but much of it still has the...

    1968 Rebuilt brake booster

    Waiting for the rebuilt oem power brake booster to arrive from Booster Dewey this week. Was at caffeine and octane in Atlanta today and talked with a couple of people who seemed to believe that these oem brake boosters fail on a regular basis. One told about his failing twice, resulting in an...

    1968 PDB booster vs. Drum brake

    I'm looking for a power brake booster to replace the missing on on Sara's CS. Found one on Ebay and bought it and then remembered that I recall someone saying the PDB and power drum brake boosters are different? I'll try to take a pic of the one I have but can anyone tell me if the are...
