    For Sale Red X-Code in the San Diego Area

    I checked my Mustang by the Numbers book, by Kevin Marti. Yes, all 1968 bench seats are comfortweave. Made a correction above, "U" not "V" for Parchment.

    For Sale Red X-Code in the San Diego Area

    Comfort weave and knitted seat upholstery, were interchanged over the years. 9B would be 'Blue'. :wink: Black with Red deluxe bench seat would be very cool. I would do red stripes, if it were mine.

    1968 Restoring tail light wiring

    A co-worker used this product. Not exactly correct, but serves the purpose. It fools most people http://www.techflex.com/prod_ccp.asphttp://www.techflex.com/prod_ccp.asp

    '68 Coupe Time Capsule

    Very loaded car, deluxe interior with AC, disc brakes, head rests, convenience group, tilt, upper and lower consoles. I notice that the door switch for the tilt away is not present, the hole isn't even punched. Tilt might have been owner added?

    1968 Help decoding 302

    That block was cast on August 19, 1972. The 1970 and newer Ford V8 engines used 4 bolt crank pulleys / harmonic balancers.

    1968 Help decoding 302

    Not familiar with that casting number. Typical 1968 302 engine blocks have casting numbers like C8OE-6015-A, C8OE-6015-B. Yours may be a service block. What is the casting date? Do you know what to look for? Should be smaller numbers with what may look like screw heads at the beginning and end...

    New car (temporarily)

    I wouldn't sweat the D1ZF-ZA Autolite carburetor at this time. Get a Holley, most folks wouldn't know that the Boss 351's came with an Autolite carburetor from the factory. Here is some trivia for you guys and gals. The 1971 429 Cobra Jet engines came with Rochester Quadrajet carburetors...

    http://www.drakeautomotivegroup.com/Store/Product/C7ZZ-9600-C.aspx?wid=141 As far as I am aware, the above is the only reproduction base, but made for 1967 390 GT's.

    1968 Engine not level

    I was not familiar with that brand of engine mounts, so I googled them. Clicked the Summit link and immediately found the 1968 Ford small block mount. The one, and only customer feedback pretty much explains it.... Not my first rodeo with replacing motor mounts on a car. Left side was a...

    I would think $30-34k. Looks like it has good bones, should have pictures of the undercarriage.

    For Sale 1968 GT/CS Big block on Ebay

    Oh, Uncle Rob. Have to call BS on any manual transmission X code, on 390-2V, in 1968. :wink: Interesting that the warranty card is for 5 years. Was that a Canada thing, or could someone get an 'extended warranty' in 1968? Have only seen 2 year warranty cards.
