Black paint it is. Thanks Marty

How is the top steering box plate supposed to look? The ones on both my cars are natural.

This car was found in Georgia, parked since 1986.

I inspected this car and can send the info to anyone who wants it.

Play with it a little. Move the initial down to 6 degrees and see what happens. Like Rob said, as long as it doesn’t ping you’re good. I am surprised that it advances that far.

IMO it’s not unreasonable if the car is as good as it appears, but seems a little high. Maybe $25,000 as long as the front seats are decent. The radiator must be changed out for a larger one.

That's way too low at 2,000rpm. It should be around 30-35 degrees at 3,000rpm. Try 12 degrees at 650rpm with the vacuum hose unhooked and plugged, then see what it is at 3,000.

Nope, those are Lucas.

There were 19.

Do they have an accurate center vent?

Good looking car. https://dallas.craigslist.org/dal/cto/d/texarkana-1968-mustang-california/6944604363.html

Holy cow, they really do exist!!! https://medford.craigslist.org/cto/d/gold-hill-1968-california-special/6949624963.html

Ro, please post some photos. We’d love to see what you’re working on. Also, if you send me the VIN I’ll add the car to the registry and order a Marti Report for you.

The color change is also my potential deal breaker. That said, I do like the white. Put the original wheels back on the car with some wire covers and it would look sharp. Not my usual look but I can see it on that car.

If any of you are interested in this car go ahead and contact the seller. I offered her $18K sight unseen but she wasn't going for it, especially since she paid $30K for it a couple years ago (see attached PDF). IMO the car is probably worth her asking price but not to me without first...

You can more or less check both on the car. To check the mechanical advance unhook and plug the vacuum hose, check the timing at idle, rev the engine to 3,000rpm and check the timing again. The timing should move a little. To check the vacuum advance attach the vacuum hose and do the same...

Here is the Craigslist ad. https://rochester.craigslist.org/cto/d/hamlin-1968-ford-mustang-high-country/6932752343.html She's also selling her Ranchero. https://rochester.craigslist.org/cto/d/hamlin-1972-ford-ranchero-gt/6932758836.html The Marti Report is attached, as are a couple photos...

Will the kind folks here please pick apart this car? I found a few obvious details, like the tail light trim, those ridiculous tire sizes, the steering column tach, painted fender bolts, and possibly different color fenders, but after that I'm pretty well stuck.

The NPD ones look correct but as Marty said you need to know which one fits your housings. The grommet holes in the base of the housings are different depending on which grommet was used. Can you post a photo? The interiors of the housings are also different.
