...but,..........there are $10k in restoration parts that go with the car. :cheesy: Are those standard doors with added courtesy lights?

Bench seat cars also have specific seat tracks, that are just a little bit different from bucket seats. This seat looks like they are MIA.

I will take two stickers.

You mean a 1967 Mustang grille? For the movie identifying badges and fog lights were removed.

Apples to oranges. GT/CS is a Coupe, there are no regular production Shelby Coupes. Most of the 1968 Shelby Mustangs came with either a 428PI or 428CJ. Total production: 4450 Total Convertible: 1324 Total Fastback: 3126 GT350 Convertible: 404 GT350 Fastback: 1053 GT500 Convertible: 402...

The recessed side marker reflectors do not match up with the build date either.

I like the concept of this car, although it really needs the turn signal hood to pull it off. Neat trick with the trunk lid. No torsion springs or prop rod? No A/C, heater, or shock tower braces.

Me too. Probably easy to modify the art work to include the High Country Specials as a spin-off?

The low fuel trigger is called a thermister. Basically the same thing found in windshield washer bottles. My company sells this gadget for making the low fuel lights work. https://secure.cougarpartscatalog.com/elfi78.html?attribs=76

I am not an expert on the plasma lights or electrical / electronics. My expertise is in Cougar and Ford Carchaeology. I would also be interested in a list of parts for sequential plasma LED lights on my GT/CS. :cool:

Feb 5, is my GT/CS's birthday. I might treat myself to a Dilly bar.

Congratulations!

Your restoration manual just says "1968 390"? The 1968 X code 390-2V does not have the transfer tube, so that statement would be correct.

Another suggestion is the Legendary GT6 wheels machined with black. Updated Shelby 10 Spoke wheel. CJ Pony ad. good price with wheels. Other sizes available.

- regarding the PCV tube. Years ago a friend explained to me that the tube helped balanced the vacuum pulse between the intake runners. Which supposedly makes a smoother idle. It is only found on the 4V intakes with large runners.

Rob, it is called a PCV transfer tube, common on most all "S" cast 390-4V intake manifolds. I believe that Batgirl's car with Canadian DSO originally came with one too. http://www.network54.com/Forum/74182/thread/1135998144/Need+detailed+pictures+of+68+Mustang+390+GT+PCV+system

That is a really good color, and a nicely done coupe. Factory deluxe interior? Just to mess with people, I would custom make a rear valance with just one GT exhaust cutout and chromed tip. I like the idea of a 5 speed. It has a brake booster, does it have front discs? No power steering?

I guess that would be a redneck donk. Here is a regular donk Mustang.

Yep, fuel transfer tube is backwards on one.
