    1968 I’d tag and production run number

    Witness lines on the side scoops. Proper brackets and rivets for the fog lights. I believe they are Marchal's. Rough cut out in the underside of the hood for the hood locks. Proper rear wiring harness to the taillights.

    1968 I’d tag and production run number

    Dad, I bet the Marti does not have the GT/CS option listed? But this car may have been sidelined and stored and later converted early in the GT/CS run. At San Jose. Placed back on the line at San Jose and converted into a GT/CS just like the ones that were later "ordered" as a GT/CS. At...

    1968 California "Script" and the first 14 cars

    Wow, that car shows alot of GT/CS options. The one sorta close up of the left side scoop "seems" to reveal the witness line of original GT/CS fiber glass. would be great to get a VIN on this car. Other that the placement of the script, it looks like the real deal. Of course, the photos are...

    1968 Registry Data

    Arlie, Ah heck, you are retired!! What else would you do with your time!! The best thing about you is you "never say never" when cars pop up that do not fit the perceived mold of when the GT/CS came out. Instead of being the "all knowing" authority on the cars as someone else did. As this...

    1968 My custom decal

    Arlie is correct!! Keep Paul out of it or he will claim copywrite and a bunch of other things that we do not need. Tim's decal is great, and they can be innocently made and available to the members of this great site! I bet Tim's text was spot on as usual!! But I do understand!!! Rob

    1968 1968 mustang defogger

    My GT/CS also had one. Listed on the Marti report. If it was dealer installed it would not be on the report. Gosh, made it a one of one car..... Not that in my mind that cool a thing to be one of one due to cosmetic option. But some people are jazzed about being one of one. Rob

    . Triple "B's" Garage

    Installation to start in about a couple weeks!! Exhaust location is going to be a challenge. May need to remove the gas tank and reduce its width to get the exhaust all the way out the back. Not much room for 3-inch mandrel bent exhaust between the gas tank and the leaf springs!! And of...

    1968 My Cobra engine parts

    The oil pan must be carefully fit to your engine. The casting in the oil seal ends of the pan are very rough. Use a one piece FelPro oil pan gasket. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/fel-os13260t/make/ford You must carefully "sand" the oil pan to timing case cover and main cap areas to...
