My '68 convertible and '74 coupe are pretty well in not need of anything. Redid the '68's trailing arms and rearend along with brake lines, steering gear box all two years ago. Did the '80's rear wheel bearings along with core support, rebuild of original carb, alternator, smog pump, new water pump last year. The '75 is next on the agenda. Would like to redo front suspension, bushings, ball joints, core support-probably will not get into til after NCRS Nats in July. The Silver '68??? I don't know yet. Have'nt seen it, still have to get it April 2nd in Atlanta,Ga :lol: :lol: :lol:

I haven't done anything on the 78 in two years now and have no plans until something breaks.

I have enough to do trying to finish up my 2.5yr project (34 Ford Kit/Replica) and keeping them all shinning! :D

Whoops - Edit - forgot I swapped out the coils for 460lb'ers last year. Took me one morning.
