    1968 Hood pin spring

    I'm a bit embarrassed to ask this (ok very embarrassed) but in my quest to drill a hole in my hood and test fit the hood pin assembly I could not for the life of me figure out where the spring goes. I've been frantically searching the CS and Shelby forums for pictures but cannot seem to locate...

    1968 Aftermarket door shells

    Hello all. Simple question here. Has anyone had any experience with aftermarket door shells? Not just the skin but an entire replacement door. I had a body man come by my house to look at my project and he mentioned that even though the doors didn't look terribly bad, he'd still need to put...

    1968 Question for you 390 owners

    Well, I'm still plugging along on my Green Hornet project. Everything is/was going well albeit very slow. Last day was quite exciting for me. My brother in law came over to give me a hand in dropping in my FE after almost a year in the engine shop. It wasn't as easy as I thought. This is...

    1968 Quarter panel extensions

    Hello all. I'm wondering if anyone has had to repair the mounting studs on the fiberglass rear quarterpanel extensions. I purchased a set from the good folks at MU and once again they've given me a problem. One of the studs was located in the wrong spot. Not even close actually. Yes, I could...

    Hello all, sorry I haven't been updating my Green Hornet progress. Just in case anyone is interested I've set up a blog on www.1968stang.com and have pics updating it's progress. At this point I'm rewiring the engine compartment and have stumbled across a problem. The voltage regulator had...

    1968 Project Green Hornet

    Good evening (and morning to some of you). I've been slowly amassing parts and information over the past few years in order to recreate to the best of my ability the Green Hornet (EXP500). It's been an interesting few years gathering the data that I'd need to slowly put together this car...

    1968 Help removing strut rod bushing

    Hello all. I'm having a tough time figuring out how to remove both sets of strut rod bushings from my car. I know these are suppose to separate somehow but I cannot seem to figure out how. Does anyone out there have any tips or tricks? Many thanks for your time. Cheers Stan

    1968 AC controls

    Hello all, first off I must appologize if i've posted this question in the wrong section. Soon I'll be posting pics and progress reports of my Green Hornet tribute. So far it's been a slow process as amassing the parts needed has been quite a lenghty and expensive process. Nevertheless it's...

    Poor condition CS

    A very close friend of mine stumbled across a very rusted CS for sale today and asked me to look at it and give me my opinion. Here is what we saw: The car was an original C code car but is missing the engine. The frame rails, floor pans, torque boxes are shot and need replacing. The interior...

    Green Hornet interior color

    Could anyone be kind enough to identify the interior color for the Green Hornet pic attached? Most of the articles and posts i have read have called for the interior to be Ivy Gold but when I pull up any other Ivy Gold interior shots on other cars the colors don't come even close to matching...
