8F01S104288 is hands down, the rarest CS made.:grin:

It looks like the 9000-series of cars are part of the Showroom Pavillion which I could not find out anything about. Anyone with some scoobies on what the Showroom Pavillion is all about???:confused:

My thoughts exactly. With all of the press coverage that the GH had in 2006 I beleived that is was being primed for the BJ auction. At this late date, I would have to say that it's not going to go this year for you would want to give the potential buyers the time to scrap up the million-plus...

Steve, I was typing for 15 minutes since I had to check my sources to make sure I wasn't talk out my a$$ and at the time CrashKimball and I were the only two members logged on...so I would have to commend your typing speed!:wink:

Welcome aboard! First thing, don't discount that your block is not original because the third letter is an "A". A "C"-code Mustang in 1968 would have a casting code of C6AE-6015-C if a 289 block was available (they ran out in 68 and had to use 302 blocks with 289 innards!). That you have a...

My guess is 20K (+/- 2K).

Paul, In 1969 when I was 8 years old and living in Redondo Beach, CA, I watched a candle-apple red CS drive by on Catalina Ave and for me the most distinctive part of the car that I recall today was the duck-tail trunk lid. I asked my dad what kind of car that was and he didn't say Mustang or...

They are basically the same except that the 68 has the side markers mandated for safety reasons.

Rumor has it that it'll be auctioned at Barrett-Jackson next January.

Here's the scan from Mustang Monthly.

For those of you that have the latest issue (Nov 06) of Mustang Monthly, can you go to page 78 and verify what that red 68 coupe is? Its got the Marchal fog lights; all of the Shelby fiberglass / badging and the side stripe looks like "EXP" which would be EXP-500. If it is a "Green Hornet"...

Paul, You must have pyschic powers or something...just got my headrests (from a 68 cougar) and have been searching for installation instructions and voila, your post appears. If I need help on other matters I'll be sure to send some brain waves your way! I'll go ahead an take some quick...

I don't know Jason...it does have those pimped-out chrome wheels:icon_dead

Martin, Thanks for the info...your answers confirmed what I thought was correct. Cheers! Rick

Southern Cal? I heard of a couple of restorers...hmmm? Chip Foose? Boyd Coddington? :wink: They may be a bit pricey but being in Southern Cal you have a wealth of auto restorers to choose from and I'm sure someone can give you a lead on a reputable shop. Cheers!

Hi Martin, Couple of questions that you maybe able to answer or Paul might know; First, what dash emblem is used above the glove box? Second, I haven't found a good pic that details the emblem used on the vinyl (behind the qtr window)...does it say "Shelby" or "Cobra" and is it one or two...

Rhonda, I'll let my neighbor Dave know how you feel about his ruining of a 68 vert:wink: All kidding aside, Dave is an artist when it comes to working with fiberglass and you really have to see the car in person to truely appreciate what he's done to the car. The vert was a "C" code with very...

Not sure about that. Here's a comparison of the "Important Dates" on our Marti reports: (Mine | Yours) Order Received: 01/04/68 | 01/10/68 Car Serialized: 01/11/68 | 01/17/68 Bucked: 01/19/68 | 01/18/68 Sked ofr Build: 01/22/68 | 01/26/68 Actual...

Jason, I saw on your Marti report that your car was built on Jan 22 1968 and has a vin of 134453 which is really weird since my car was built the next day at the same plant and has a vin of 131333. I know that this happen but a difference of over 3,000 has me scratching my head.

Looking at the Assembly Manual for the 68 Mustang, they list the part as: C7ZB-6542478-9 which would inidcate that the molding carried over from 67 with no change. Looking at mine, which is from a car that had a vinyl roof, the bottom hole matches up to the one that is not attached Arlie's car.
