Depend on if you want originals or not. If the piston is pitted, its likely the core is corroded too. New pistons are fairly cheap. You can buy complete assemblies for about $70 each... cheap and fast, remove the old, bolt on the new one... they are pretty good parts from the pair I got...

Thanks for confirming...

Just learned something new and an item I never noticed before.... on the '67 convertibles the power top wiring feed was routed from the LH side of the firewall. Not the RH as on '65, '66 and '68. If you look at the pic of the LH rear apron you'll see a rectangular flat spot with a dimple dead...

On the question of "which one goes where" for the rear interior 1/4 1. the black one with the washer head goes at the bottom front, thru the carpet. Should be a hole in the quarter trim on the lower lip of the panel, can be tricky to find the hole in the body and line it up. A hot nail or...

Got a reply.... "Hello! Thanks for your questions on the Mustang. While I have not removed the front fenders to access the hidden vin locations, I can say with confidence that the vin matches the dash, trim tag and front apron. There is a Marti report as well to confirm the specification on the...

Thanks Jeff, on that note I am thinking all of the plugs were installed from the outside, better water protection, which was the point, not looks in the engine bay. Would that be correct....???

... and since I found this shot too, one more for good measure... 1 – Shock Tower/Spring Cover 2 – Washer Bottle 3 – Wire harness /Washer hoses (#376756 strap) 4 – Fuel line / Grommett 5 – Bumper Arms (2 palces, one shown) 6 - ??? 7 – Rubber Plug (#376966) 8 - Not used, probably indexing hole...

GT/CS is San Jose... and agree it is generally the case that the '68 San Jose VIN is not visible in the notch... and this is a result of repair/rework.

Thanks! Feel free to use it or adapt it elsewhere.... I can't figure out #6 on the rear apron... the hole is on my GTCS but in the same location my San Jose S code convertible and S GT coupe don't have it.... but my Dearborn X code does... it is very clean and looks factory, but not sure why...

hmmmm..... email bounced from Ebay... " ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- <[email protected]> (reason: 550-5.7.1 Unauthenticated email from yahoo.com is not accepted due to domain's)" :undecided

You can get a new dash VIN tag pretty easy.... not saying its right or legal, but.... They note "The paintwork, in the correct color per the Deluxe Marti Report" so I'd bet a replacement panel, as is not uncommon... odd they don't post the Marti in the ad. Sent them a question asking if they...

The first two and last "1"s look a bit different, but maybe just the blurry pic... If the original VIN tot he car I'd guess a restamp on a new apron... or... mine is a fake!!! :eek: Most of the other VINs I looked at are also a bit wavy, like mine, and the red one looks pretty...

Found one... sorta the same. Interesting that body color was on the engine bay first, then the black over the top... To my eye thre are some subtle difference in the font. The 0 looks a bit thinner on the red one and the R a bit "tighter"... maybe just the skew of the photo. Caveat emptor...

I have 4 68's, 3 San Jose, one Dearborn.... none of the VIN is visible in the notch on any of them.... That being said, they did put the notch there for a reason and maybe they got that one right. A lot of variability on these cars. The font and stars look correct from memory, can't find my...

Good info, thanks for posting. As you note, most of the use case reviews I've seen are positive too...

I've collated what I have into a Word doc, if anyone wants a copy PM me...

Thanks for the verification. If anyone knows what all the unused "black circle" dimples are for I'm all ears.

Believe Mosesatm is correct, as the GT/CS came with fogs, that would use the "GT" one with fog harness. If it was a big block manual, then it would need the tach (as it came stadnrd with the BB/manual AFAIK in '68) and if a tach option that would also require the GT/tach version. So I'd...
