    1968 Coil Spring R&R

    If you want it lower you might want to consider using a lowering coil springs. I thing you would find it a better solution than cutting off coils on the ones you have.

    1968 MCA 45th Anniversary Show

    I got to see this branded 67 Mustang at the MCA national. I had only seen pictures of them. Some how they found a NOS kit to replace the vinyl roof. The roof material was available in hounds tooth and paisley. This one looked better than I expected with the burnt amber paint.

    Wanted Looking for a '68 HCS or GT/CS Project

    About a year and a half ago a sheet of 1/2 OSB sheeting cost me $7.59 now it is $35.50. A new home built to day cost $30,000 more than the the same home cost last spring. What is more crazy is that it is not slowing building down.

    1968 MCA 45th Anniversary Show

    Rob it started right up and backed out of the trailer them proudly drove on the show field. Given the severer weather in the southeast and the fact that I probably got more MPGs in the van pulling the trailer that the 390 would have driving. It would have been fun driving it in the mountains...

    1968 LED Halos

    I am a concours guy so they are not for me. There are a lot of advantages to the brighter LED head lights. I converted some Ford script head light that had burned out to LED for our unrestored HCS that we drive. They are certainly better.

    1968 MCA 45th Anniversary Show

    We just got home, long but good trip. I was great to see Neil and Peggy again. I was looking forward to seeing Neil's black beauty in person, it was just as nice as I thought it would be. I loved the shirt that Peggy bought me, it was a big hit with Tari too! It was so nice to be able to...

    SOLD Original Marchals

    The ones I have came off our 68 GT350. They are date coded September 67. The chrome is near perfect. One has a crack in the lens and the bulb is missing. They also would need new wiring. They are in the NOS boxes my new ones came in. PM me if you are interested. Marty

    1968 Driving the S code GT

    The 68 S code was running well enough that I thought I would take Tari out to eat tonight in it. There is a drive in restaurant about 30 miles from here that I thought would be a good test for it. We cruised there with no problems and had our dinner. When is driving a GT a good thing? Well it...

    . Triple "B's" Garage

    I got the carb installed and the car running today. Oh my goodness it runs like a different car!! I had not been able to drive any of our cars for almost 3 month so it was a real treat to drive the 390 and having it running properly. I think now the carb is right I can tune it even better...

    1968 Wide ovals or Polyglass

    Goodyear the correct wide oval tire for 68. Kelsey tire is where to buy them. Do you really want to drive on Polyglas tires. I forgot I had them on the unrestored HCS when I drove to the 2018 MCA national in Lincoln NE. At first I thought what is wrong with this car. It is driving like crap...
