    1968 Value Of 68 Mustang

    Well, I thought the % added for the engine options was far more realistic at least. NADA's 10% or 15% for a 390 GT is way off in my opinion! 60% for the 390 and 120% for the 428cj seems a lot closer to reality, though the rarity of these engines in these cars makes for a limited data base to...

    Gas cap refresh

    Iv'e repainted a couple. If needed, I removed the last of the paint first w zip-strip... then I'd get a tiny brush and apply the correct paint very carefully. I think the black is a semi gloss...... the trick is applying it evenly so as not to have a mottled look. It usually took several coats...

    Wanted 1968 California Special, Blue, w/Cobra Jet

    Aqua S code with 428cj and 4-speed I have an S code that I put all 428cj drivetrain in. Big spline toploader close ratio, 31 spline axels may have N case I'll have to look. It's an actual GT as well and has an 8,000 rpm factory tach. I havn't put the stripes on yet or the rockers. I added a...

    What color stripes should I have?

    My car is gulfstream aqua with two tone aqua interior. I am trying to figure out what color stripes as well..... Right now I'm leaning towards white, red or gold.... Is gold definitely wrong?? I'm thinking it might look cool but I don't want to do it if they NEVER came that way.....

    1968 Value Of 68 Mustang

    Thanx, I see the sprint package above @ 10% but not the GT.... That being said, I have all 428cj running gear at the moment. I wonder how that affects the price? Personally I would prefer to have it this way....but I can see that to a purist it might make it less valuable. I'm thinking of...

    1968 Value Of 68 Mustang

    GT package value? I didn't see a value for the GT package or for competition suspension. I have an "S" code 4-speed CSGT w the GT package and 8,000rpm tach. Would that just be part of the 60% you get for the 390 4v engine?

    1968 Original "X" code california special w/ Tach?

    Interesting topic. I have an S code 4-speed GT/CS and a Marti... It has the GT option listed, but no tach is listed. It has an 8,000 rpm tach with a 120 mph speedo and trip meter. I bought the car in 1976. I always wondered about the tach....and yes, all the idiot lights work. Why would a big...

    1968 power steering

    Sounds like you are going the extra mile and replacing just about everything... I had a similar problem w my 70 Torino Cobra. After putting a second pump on and having the same problem I went to a hydraulic shop and had them make me a pump pressure tester for about $30. Sure enough after testing...

    1968 What to do??

    Thanx for all the input. I do have the GT wheels in very nice condition (powder coated) but with GT caps instead of the CS caps. I figured why not, it's a GT. Same with the GT emblems on the fenders. As far as the Cobras on the fenders.... Well, it sounds to me like BJ might be more trouble and...

    1968 What to do??

    Well if it were me buying it instead of selling it I'd rather have the 428cj in it for sure but what do I know....especially as I've never thought about selling it till now and hav'nt kept up on the current market. Any ideas as to its value? Can't be many Big blocks out there....

    1968 What to do??

    Hi, I am thinking of selling my "S" code 4-sp GTCS in order to start up a business. I put an aluminum headed 428cj, big in out toploader and 31 spl axels into it when I restored it three years ago. It has 77K original miles on it and I'm pretty sure thats correct since I've owned it since 1976...
