WISH I COULD FIGURE OUT HOW TO PUT MORE THAN 24 PICTURES ON EBAY MOTORS LIKE SOME LISTINGS? I WOULD LIST A LOT MORE OF EVERY SQUARE INCH OF THIS CAR, UNDERCARRIAGE ETC., TO SHOW HOW NICE IT TRULY IS!

ORIGINAL COLOR, CANDY APPLE RED. ACQUIRED THIS CAR OFF OF A FRIEND OF MINE LAST SPRING. HE HAD OWNED THE CAR OVER 30 YEARS! CAR WAS PAINTED AROUND 1996 (LOOKS LIKE IT WAS JUST DONE!!!!), AND THERE WAS NO BODYWORK, FILLER, MUD, RUST, AT ALL ON THIS CAR! ALL METAL!!!!! NO BUBBLES, DENTS OR CHIPS! HE DIDN'T CARE FOR THE STICK-ON OVAL STYLE REFLECTOR TRIMMED IN CHROME THAT WERE ON EACH 1968 QUARTER PANEL SO HE LEFT THEM OFF. SINCE THIS CAR WAS BUILT AFTER 2/15/68 IT HAD THE STICK-ON REFLECTOR. CARS BUILT 2/15/68 OR PRIOR HAD THE RECESSED RECTANGULAR REFLECTOR BUILT INTO THE QUARTER PANEL! THE UNDERCARRIAGE OF THIS CAR IS SOLID AS A ROCK AND ALL ORIGINAL!! NO RUST! 100% FRAME! NEW GAS TANK WAS INSTALLED YEARS AGO AND STILL LOOKS NEW! EXHAUST IS DUAL FLOWMASTERS THAT SOUND ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!! TRUNK IS AS GOOD AS IT GETS ALSO! UNBELIEVABLE! THIS CAR HAS NOT BEEN WASHED IN 9 YEARS!! THE "GT" OPTIONS OF, DRIVING LIGHTS, "GT" GAS CAP, "GT" EMBLEMS ON FRONT FENDERS AND ON STYLED STEEL WHEELS, AND TWIN EXHAUST TIPS ON EACH PIPE WERE ADDED WHEN PAINTED AROUND 1996. THE TWIN 10" WHITE SHELBY STRIPES WERE DONE PROFESSIONALLY THEN ALSO. COMPLETE REBUILD OF THE ORIGINAL 289 WAS DONE THEN ALSO WITH A SMALL CAM ADDED WHICH RUNS GREAT!. ALSO ADDED THEN WAS ALUMINUM COBRA VALVE PAN COVERS AND INTAKE, AND EDELBROCK 4 BARREL CARB. ALSO THIS IS WHEN THE FACTORY DASH CLUSTER WAS REMOVED WITH 82,114 ORIGINAL MILES, AND THE CURRENT WHITE FACE CLUSTER WAS ADDED WHICH NOW SHOWS 4,871 MILES SINCE REBUILD IN 1996. THE ORIGINAL CLUSTER THAT STILL WORKS FINE GOES WITH THE CAR AND IS IN A-1 CONDITION. THE ORIGINAL STEERING WHEEL GOES WITH THE CAR BUT IS MISSING THE UGLY RUBBER HORN SECTION ACROSS THE MIDDLE THAT WAS PROBABLY DAMAGED WHEN REPLACING THE WHEEL WITH A MUCH SPORTIER "GT"WHEEL. THE BLACK INTERIOR IS IMMACULATE, NOT SURE IF IT WAS EVER RESTORED? WINDOWS, DOORS, LOCKS, TRUNK, SEATS, HEAT ALL WORK AS THEY SHOULD. IT HAS A JVC AM-FM CD STEREO THAT SOUNDS GREAT! BF GOODRICH TIRES ARE LIKE NEW!, AND THE CAR RUNS AND DRIVES LIKE A NEW ONE!! VERY HARD TO BELIEVE IT'S A 47 YEAR OLD CAR! WELL TAKEN CARE OF! SELLING THIS CAR BECAUSE OF BUYING A NEW HOME AND THIS IS GOING TO TAKE CARE OF PUTTING IN A NEW IN GROUND POOL. I HAVE. A 65 FASTBACK ALSO THAT I WILL BE KEEPING. IT IS TOUGH CHOOSING WHICH ONE TO LET GO! CAR DOES JUMP OUT OF 2ND GEAR SOMETIMES WHEN DESENDING DOWN A HILL ONLY, IF NOT HOLDING ONTO SHIFTER. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THIS IS SYNCHRONIZER IN TRANSMISSION, NO BIG DEAL? CAR RUNS REALLY STRONG AND FAST! VERY TIGHT! THIS CAR HAS BEEN WELL TAKEN CARE OF AND IT IS VERY OBVIOUS. THE WARRANTY ON THIS CAR IS AS WITH ANYTHING I HAVE EVER SOLD, IF YOU BUY THIS CAR AND IT IS NOT EXACTLY AS I HAVE DESCRIBED AND YOU ARE UNHAPPY, YOU MAKE WALK AWAY FROM IT WITH YOUR $500 DEPOSIT REFUNDED 100%. A LITTLE NOTE ABOUT MYSELF, I AM A MASON, AND A SHRINER, VERY HONEST! PLEASE DON'T WASTE MY TIME! THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL 1968 FASTBACK! I WOULDN'T BE AFRAID TO DRIVE IT TO FLORIDA!!! MARYLAND TITLE IS IN MY NAME AND IS CLEAR, PLEASE CALL WITH ANY QUESTIONS UP TO 10:00 PM 301-268-5656 THANKS!

On Dec-07-14 at 06:08:36 PST, seller added the following information: I HAD A QUESTION LAST NIGHT ( SATURDAY 12/6/14) TO VERIFY THE ID TAG ON THE DASHPAD ON THE PASSENGERS SIDE IN THE CORNER BESIDE THE WINDSHIELD. THERE IS NO ID TAG THERE ON THIS CAR? IT IS MISSING FOR SOME REASON? DONT KNOW IF DASH PAD WAS EVER REPLACED? THERE IS A ID TAG ON THE INNER RIGHT FENDER WHICH DOES MATCH THE VIN # AND TRIM INFO ON THE VIN PLATE THAT IS ON THE DRIVERS DOOR. THE DATA PLATE ON THE DRIVERS DOOR LOOKS TO HAVE NEVER BEEN REMOVED BECAUSE OF THE STYLE OF THE RIVETS, AND HAS SOME PAINT ON THE EDGES OF IT WHEN PAINTED IN 1996.
