    1968 Kick Panels

    The kick panels in my GT/CS are both cracked at the screw holes. I want to replace them, and I thought I saw where the Scott Drake ones are pre-drilled at the mounting points. Is this correct? If not Scott Drake, does anyone here know of kick panels that are pre-drilled? Thanks. :grin:

    1968 Who makes the best door panels?

    The door panels on my car aren't the best. The silver foil is peeling, but otherwise they don't look too bad. If I decide to replace them, whose are the best? TMI? I put a pair on a car years ago, and they were terrible. The panels were really flimsy and did not seem anywhere near the...

    1968 Tail Lamp Bezel/Lens Screw Finish

    The lens to panel screws on the left of my tail lamps were missing altogether. When I took apart the right side, I found that there were 4 screws holding the lens to the panel. All 4 of them are a black finish. The set of 16 screws I just received through my supplier (from AMK) are all...

    1968 Carlite vs Herculite Glass

    I noticed today that all of the glass on my GT/CS is the original Carlite, with the exception of the left wing window. It has the name Herculite etched? into it. I assume that that window was replaced for whatever reason, but the brand name puzzles me. Has anyone heard of Herculite?

    1968 Re-painting Arm Rest

    It appears that the left armrest on my car has been poorly re-painted. The dark red is flaking off and the armrest appears to be originally black. I have repainted interior plastics before and have no issues with it. My concern here is that the paint appears to be quite thick. I can flake it...

    1968 Screw Loose...

    No, not me...the car. The PO had used an incorrect screw on one of the tail light bezels. I have a correct one in there now, but it is loose, and tends to back out. I have used some of that thin white plastic that is for the threads on air tools, but it only sort of works. Is there something...

    1968 Brake Light Question

    I had the car out for a run this morning, and when I backed it into the garage, I noticed that the left side brake light did not seem as bright as the right. After a bit of experimentation, I found the following: - With the headlight switch on in the parking light position, both tail lights...

    1968 Does This Car Sound Familiar?

    I had mine out for a run this afternoon and stopped at the gas station on the way home. A fellow came up to me and started talking about the GT/CS. He owned one in Vancouver a few years ago. Blue with aquamarine two tone deluxe interior, 390 with a C-6. He said he sold it as it was just...

    1968 Replacing Rear Bumper

    I have a re-chromed Ford bumper that I bought just after acquiring my GT/CS. It even has a correct build code. I want to install it this Spring. When I unbolt the old one from the car, do I unplug the license plate light before I remove the bumper or should I take the screws out from the...

    1968 Retaining stud & nut for hood light

    I don't know why I didn't notice this little detail before, but one of the studs that retain the hood louver lights on my GT/CS is missing. Does the stud simply thread into the light and then the tinnerman nut goes on to secure the light to the hood? I do have a couple of studs from a 68 tail...

    1968 Water in Battery Tray

    OK, this may seem like a strange question, but I have often wondered. I rarely wash my GT/CS with water. Each time I take it out for a drive, I dust it off with a California Duster, and when it needs a bit more, I use Meguiar's Ultimate Quick Detailer. I wax it a couple of times a year. I...
