    1968 Recommendations on fire extinguishers

    I've been putting this off far too long. Need to get fire extinguishers for my cars. Did a quick search on recommended type and brands but didn't see anything. Does anyone have a good recommendation? Thanks. Steve

    1968 Need brake cylinder and booster unit for PB car

    Thanks, Danny. I took the suggestions from several of you and called Booster Dewey yesterday. They were very helpful although don't currently have a Midland unit in stock. Gave me pricing and took my name and number down. They will call me when they have a unit. He also suggested that since...

    1968 Need brake cylinder and booster unit for PB car

    Neil, I think that may be part of the spacer. I think that part is maybe a plastic gasket-type part that fits in the aluminum spacer. Here is a link to a Midland on ebay which I think has the spacer that we're talking about. In one of the pics you can see the part that you have is part of...

    As for the steering column, I wondered about that but thought it might be part of the GT package. Sound like it was not. I agree on your last statement. I sent a note with a couple of questions about history and originality. Thanks

    While snooping around ebay I ran across this car. Looks very interesting...if it truly is a survivor. Clear-coating of the original paint?? Interested in others thoughts on this car...

    1968 Need brake cylinder and booster unit for PB car

    Apology for my ignorance but is the proportioning valve a separate part or is it part of the midlands booster. Thanks for the suggestions on possible places to find one, Mike. Steve

    1968 Need brake cylinder and booster unit for PB car

    Thanks...I'll start the hunt. Are they hard to find? Actually the car stops pretty well which I agree is a bit surprising. Thanks for the help.

    1968 Need brake cylinder and booster unit for PB car

    I'd like to find an oem master cylinder and booster unit for Sara's CS. As mentioned in a previous post, the original owner removed the power brake unit from our car for some strange reason. Not sure if the parts differed for drum or disc options but ours is a front disc car. If you have or...

    1968 Great couple of hours with Neil (Franklinair) today

    No Marty, the accent stripe is not listed on the Marti. The original owner put his own unique, and sometimes strange, touches on this car in quite a few ways. He must have added this later. steve

    1968 Great couple of hours with Neil (Franklinair) today

    Sara and I had the pleasure of meeting and spending a few hours with Neil today. What a pleasure! Neil was in Atlanta and stopped by to take a look at Sara's CS. It was great to chat about the cars. We got some great information and Neil's perspective on what we really have here. This was...

    1968 Active brake ducts on Sara's CS

    I think you are correct on all counts, Neil. The Extra Cooling package is listed on the Marti so we are clear on that (just have not really confirmed with certainty what was included in the package). As for the active brake ducts and the hood scoop we are also fairly certain that these were...
