    1968 Adding Air Conditioning to a non-AC car?

    Robert, I installed factory air in my 'non-factory' '68 coupe, purchased a complete setup. It was very easy to do and if you are handy with tools you can do it. You will have to cut out a few pieces, center register has a brace down the middle, the firewall where the lines come in and also the...

    For Sale 1968 Lucas Fog Lights on E-bay

    Wrong Lucas lights, not correct for the CS or Shelby. There has always been some confusion since this style of Lucas lights was shown as correct in a Mustang recognition guide (for Shelby) back in the late 80s.

    GT/CS Dash Emblems

    Neil, Paul did make them, but made more than "10" as he states in the ebay add. The long emblem fits over the Mustang emblem on the dash panel above the glove box, and the smaller emblem fits on the steering wheel, for the small one you need the center pad from a '68 cougar (or 68 shelby) and...

    Tail light area cardboard filler

    When I was stationed in Korea, I was in charge of all the air to surface bombing/straffing ranges, so I have a couple of BDU-33's (practise dumb bombs) packed away somewhere.

    Original California Special "blueprints" on ebay

    Has anyone seen these on ebay? They are stating they are the original blue prints for the Marchal lights, "California Special" script, Tail light lense, etc. This would be invaluable for Paul's book. Here is the link to the sellers store, look half way down for the items...

    Electrical Problem

    I need your help with a problem I am having with my coupe. I have been having problems starting my car for the past month. It started with a dead battery, the battery was less then 2 years old, so I assumed it was the alternator (it was the original 40 year old alternator) so I brought it in...

    engine block codes

    Rich, it is the VIN that is stamped on the fender, it is covered in the black "anti rattle" stuff they but on the fenders. I had to take off the top fender bolts to get at it since all San Jose fender VIN stamps are not in the correct "window" area. Doug

    U-joints Shack rattle and roll

    I started to feel a vibration in my coupe early this week. As the week went by it got worse. I initially thought it was a wheel or the engine but I started to rule that out doing different tests. I narrowed it down to the U-joints or the rear axle, figuring replacing both front and rear U-joints...
