Ladies and Gentlemen. When you see paint in front of the cowl in front of the windshield in the engine compartment on 68/69s its because it was repainted. That area is supposed to be blacked out except on the first 3500-4000 cars made in 1968.

Not the only Bronze painted 68 that "claims" to be original paint I've seen recently. At least this one is under $100k.......

I think rust is an "issue" here as well.....

I just watched a bit of the video, in post #1, where the one voice keeps saying "It's all original", over and over. The video scans the dashboard, and the voice says, "original keys". I don't think so.....Then they scan under the hood, a black alternator? I don't think that's OE...............

I noticed that as well. The keys are certainly not 68. If he thinks they are then I kinda doubt he knows what else is.
Still a decent car for the money.
