What point are you trying to get across with your rebuttal? You are certainly correct that not everyone lives in Texas but thank you for alerting me to that fact. I probably would not have figured that out on my own and without your help I might have gotten up in the morning and gone to work...

Bill, (Nfrntau) is in the middle of a ground up restoration too. Most of the structural metal work is done and the body work is probably half finished. It's nice to see so many ambitious souls on this site!

Check out this link. The kids are going to get wet tonight! http://www.intellicast.com/Local/USLocalWide.asp?loc=kcll&seg=LocalWeather&prodgrp=RadarImagery&product=MetroRadarLoop&prodnav=none

Ditto from Texas! Not the blower part, just the driving part.

That's exactly what I thought!! Why would someone bolt a bench onto the trunk of a car? Maybe we're looking at this all wrong. Could it be rumble seat?

Thanks Paul. It sounds like I'll need to keep the garage doors closed so I don't offend the neighbors with my polically incorrect verbiage!

Paul, do you remember whether or not the paint was from Rainbow Industries? They seem to have the best shade of aqua but I don't like their nozzles. Another brand has great nozzles (almost like a paint gun) but their color is too light. I've already painted the dash once but I made the...

.....painting the DASH and installing the dash pad. I need to paint the dash before I can install the dash pad over it. I'm not painting the dash pad.

Looks like Chrysler tried to make their own GT/CS back in the late 70s or early 80s.

Car sold for $20,500. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4584545925&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1

Jason, my project for today is painting the dash and installing the dash pad. Any words of advice?

Since the poster mentioned a Boss and a 429 I tried to respond in the same vein, so what I meant by a true high performance option would be a Boss 429, Boss 302, Tunnel port 302, 289 HiPo (sort of), 427 SOHC, 428SCJ. Motors that were tweaked to their limits to generate raw power. The 390...

I must agree with Jason on this one. Rarity does not always equate to high prices. To most of the world a 68 High Country Special with 4 flat tires and a stuck motor is just an old Mustang with 4 flat tires and a stuck motor. There are a handful of us, like the posters on this site, who...

Just checked a few Mustang supplier web sties and found that Dashes Direct has Ford tooling for every year except 67 and 68. They have 65-66, 69-70, 71-73. They're all jealous of our cars! It's a conspiracy!!!

I agree. It seems to have a higher plastic content while the original seems to have more rubber in it. The new ones are supposed to keep their shape better and not sag.

Here is a picture of my new dash pad. As I hope you can see the grain is quite pronounced.

I ordered mine from Mustangs Unlimited. Here is the description of it from the MU web site. PAD,DASH 67/68 AQUA Aqua Dash Pad for 1967-1968 Mustang. Has your dash cracked or turned dry and blackend with the years? This great reproduction dash pad fits as original for a rejuvenated look. Dash...

Now that's clever. Looks like we need to add Rhonda to the the Casey and Doug genius list! Guys, remember my post a while back about the female conspiracy. There is more evidence. Look at how they study us, trying to figure us out, trying to find a weakness. They say it's because they want...
