Thank you Gary I will check overseas with the European car guys.

I need a set of the clear lenses for Marchal lamps. My NOS ones purchased 10 years ago came with the Amber ones. Like to install them now finally. Thank you in advance for any leads or sources. Kerry

Yes Craig purchased the rights to Vintage Paxton over 20 yrs ago and is the authority. The McCullough design was carried over to the Paxton thus some of the 65/67 era gauges are Paxton/McCullough. The Cobra box was used from 65-67 and in 68 was changed to Shelby due to the licensing agreement...

Maybe b/c people rested their coffer on it if they were standing around or something! Bingo I have some literature somewhere with a pic showing exactly this scene

The owner in San Fran said it needed the driver side floor pan replaced. When have you ever seen sheet metal included in the sale of a car that did not need it? Obviously with the Red Oxide sprayed inside something is going on as none on the back floors. Nice how they took the far away pic of...

Bob this is not an 8th car just one that you know that changed hands. You are the keeper of the records and it would be nice if someone let you in on the info. I am not at liberty to disclose. Kerry

You are very welcome.

It will be a long wait likely 4 months

You are welcome it may still be a good car but for a potential 1000 mile trip with a trailer and it not be so I passed. I expect a seller to provide answers and pictures and be polite about it or pass. If you compare this to the Highland Green on e that sld on Ebay for 9000 a couple of weeks ago...

I tried to buy the car 2 months ago. The guy is hostile and was firm on the price. Finally got him to send me 3 more pics. The passenger front apron was wrinkled pretty bad. This made sense with the hood and mixed up Fog lamps of which he has another set. Tells me it was hit pretty hard long...

That is very cool. Bob is likely the only man on the planet that could have pulled that rabbit out of his hat or...can in this case. Take care of him Mike he "dun ya good" Let me know if you want that coffee bar no binders though

pres blue is a rare color for 68 as is royal maroon. We have very few of each registered for 68.5 cars. The rarest 68 color aside from special paint codes is pebble beige.

depends on your definition of "worth" certainly not from an investment stand. It costs 40-75K plus to perform a correct restoration. Now "worth" it to you as a keeper or sense of accomplishment etc I can understand. That SCS and your 68 restored to a pretty high level like division 2 would...

So long as you are having fun and your family has food on the table you are entitled to change your mind, vacillate, or sit on your thumb for the time being. It just makes all feel more sane when others are as into this old junk as much as we are. Press on laddy

Slam any small block in there and clean her up good. Like Chris says photograph well and wright an honest description as well as a brief tutorial on the SCS. I did not buy this car originally for the reasons you are now trying to figure out. It is a very very cool car but the 390 specific items...

Mike you have already answered your own question. Sell the Coupe and get your Fastback. Always pursue what you want not what others want for you. You need to make the car run or will be leaving money on the table

surprised the doors close with all of the paint on the inside latches

Arlie are you bidding on the car? can you post the Marti or answer my question about the dealer? thanks

I am considering bidding. Is the car from San Diego like the dealer plate frames state? Do not want to compete with a member so let me know.
