Got it Running Again
 

fired it up after having the heads redone along with the Intake carb headers etc. Worth the wait:

Looks like one mean machine. Congrats

NICE!!!

I love '68's and you have a super nice one.

68 is one of my favorite years too.

Clean ! Good looking car and engine, nice job !

Really nice. Can't wait to see it done.

Got it Out
 

so clean man i love it!

Looks good, looks like it's going to need a hood scoope.

Have a 4" lift off hood. I will be replacing it in the future with a bolt on. However I see all the hoods say must use 69 hinges. Why is that??

looks nice. I just ordered a 4" Harwood bolt on hood, the sales man didnt say anything about changing hinges, he just asked about the springs

'68 hinges are shorter where they bolt to the hood. The hoods are actually slightly different between '68 and '69. The mounting bolt holes are closer together on the '68, than the '69. ...and since the body lines are the same for '68 and '69 hoods, they just make hoods for '69 cars. (to avoid having to make two different hoods) so the mounting bolt centers for the hood only fit '69 hinges. If you buy an after market hood, it will have '69 mounting holes in it. Therefore you need '69 hinges.

Did I say that clearly enough? I tend to ramble.

Sounded good to me .

Beautifull car, 69 rules!!!!

Said perfectly.

thanks.
