I know for sure that there were no options on fuel capacity. I do know that a 69 tank is 20 gal. and will bolt right in. Most likely it was changed some where along the line. Some times in Wyoming or Nevada I wish I had 4 more gallons but most of the time the old blatter needs a rest near the...

The 1968 Mustang owners manual says it is 16 gallons. Marty

Agreed. I had not seen Arlie's post, he posted while I was posting mine. Certainly the GT-CS information will be useful. Marty

No need for a Marti report in this case. As Scott said there is no way any 68's were built with 4spds. Marty

Some of the 65 6 cil cars had 4spds but from what I have hear thet were not very good. Marty

Door hinges, trunk hings and all bolts were painted with the body. :smile: Marty MCA gold card judge

Here is one that is not too bad. If you need a better shot let me know. This picture from the 68 show room broacher shows the front start point nicely. This one from this forum shows a original GT-CS accent stripe termination. Marty

I have a couple of coffee cans with mostly metal tags (another hobby) 'cause I look for ( only Colorado) dealer tags, mostly Ford but others, too at junkyards and swap meets. Bob do you have anything from Bill Goodro Ford in Denver for our 68 HCS? I would love to find a drive off tag or frame...

Yes you can adjust the door window. It is best to follow the procedure in the 68 Ford service manual. It is too much to type here. Marty

It was a option. I recall it cost $13.90. When I got our car it had been repainted with out the accent stripe. I was not sure if I would put it back on. I finely decided to put it on and I am glad I did. Marty

Happy Birthday Mike! Thanks for all you do with the registry. Hope you have a great day. Marty

You are correct. Marty

Jim the accent stripe was Ford's term for pen stripe. Here is a picture of our HCS with a accent stripe. Marty

The GT-CS stripes were Vinyl as were the GT stripes. The accent stripe was paint. Marty

Arlie, That was bad! The exhaust gasket is partly to blame. Ford never used exhaust gaskets because they wanted the heat in the exhaust manifold to be cool with the head. This is even a bigger problem with six cil. engines. I plain both surfaces, paint them, bolt and tork and never have any...

just make sure the bumper guards (if applicable) are correct 68's 68-68 rear bumper gards were the same. Marty

Yes a Ford rechrome bumper is a ton better than the reproduction. Much better chrome and best of all it will fit like Ford intended. The 68's use a C7 part #s. unless the part was changed the part number stayed the same. The difference would be in the date code. That can be found in the center...

Tim that is a very well optioned car and even convenience lights a supper rare option. Have any pictures? Marty

I was watching the news last night and saw a report of a elderly man that had died. When they went through his home they found seven million in gold. As they were showing his house thre was a shot of the garage and there was a 68 Lime Gold GT-CS! I guess the old fellow knew what was valuable...

Curtis still had the car a few months ago. I think he has sold most of the others. I am sure he would be open to any investagation you may want to do. It was a very early VIN. If you want his contact information PM me. Marty
