Wow I guess I am lucky the 289 that I had overhalled last fall for the silver 67 was 1310.00 complete. He even put it on a test stand and did the break in. When I arrived to pick it up he started it up for me. Marty

Now the fun begins, it's easy to stay up too late. I know you are going to have happy holidays. Wish I could come help! Marty

I don't know what # error means. Nice looking car lot of small stuff wrong. Marty

This is what I know Ford did use the socket retaining clips in both in 67 and 68. But from what I have seen the San Jose plant did not. Many of the San Jose turn housings did not even have a hole for the screw. Like my 67 GTA. Mike is correct I do not deduct for no clip if there is no hole or...

Neil if you do not find one locally let me know I think I can dig up some for you. Do you have the plastic clip where the harness comes out of the hood structure? Marty

Very nice work! It's hard to find a car for sale that nicely detailed and if you do expect to pay big bucks for it. Keep the pictures coming. Marty MCA 38812

It won't because the shift plate housing is under the console base plastic and you can't shift the housing to one side because it is pined through the shifter base. Hard to explain was the best I can do. Marty

That's too bad I will be judging all Saturday afternoon. I understand it is hard to find time on that busy weekend. Hopefuly I'll see you all on Sunday. Rob bring me a taste of that brisket that I have heard so much about. Marty

Yes I would second that Neil. I would bet one of the clip ends broke off. Marty

Thanks Guys!

Has anyone used the reproduction hood locks? Are the as good as Ford? There are some on ebay I was thinking of bidding on but a bit pricey at $199 Marty

Sorry to say I don't know any other way to get to it with out at least lossening it all up so you could lift it up enough to reattach the rod. I hate when stuff like that happens. Marty

Wow Mike, Your car is Something Special !! Marty

David if you get Mustang Monthly there is a artical in January's addition about winning in the MCA. It gives you a good idea of what the MCA is all about. Our Jeff Speegle should get a lot of credit, this year he lead the best judges meeting I have ever attended. Caught the attention of Donald...

You can do a radiant floor and a forced air system that way you can add the AC if you wish. If you have any wood working plans a good vacumbe system is a must. I am working on a solar hot water system for my shop. Marty

Wow Scott, A vintage watch now that is some incentive. I think you are going to be some tough competition! Latter I have to get to my garage! Marty

Rob the #1 suggestion I would offer is radiant heat in the floor. Since we spend so much time on or near the floor and with the 14' wall you don't want all the heat up there. Also lots of electrical and air outlets. A small vented spray booth would be great, no over spray on every thing. Good...

That cool ! I like the old photos. Marty

Our 68 HCS was sold at WM Goodrd Ford in Denver. Bob Teets was the second owner. We bought it in San Diego Ca. and brought it home to Nebraska. Marty

Scott, Glad you found it. Your boss will get over it. That kind of stuff can drive you nuts. Those O ring style housings are nothing but trouble. Marty
