Mike how can you tell? What does a 68 firewall look like? You've got one hell of a good eye if you can see that with all the changes they did to the car. To my untrained eye, it looks like metal. Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's metal. And it's flat.

The wiper motor hole is round on a 67.

Been researching this myself for months.
It looks like the Wegner drive setup. Powermaster sells black alternators. RS probably does the compressor in house to match. I would LOVE to put together this exact drive setup on my BBC...

The 67 wiper motor hole is round, the 69-69 is oblong.

Thanks again for all the comments! The car is at upholstery now and hopefully will be back in time to wrap it up and debut at Columbus.

The car is actually a 67. The customer decided he didn't want vent windows so we put 68 doors on it. All of the other distinctions between the 2 years have been changed to something custom (except the wiper hole).

The front drive is from Wegner. It comes with the black alternator and a/c compressor. Very nice components!

Weld, I'm thinking your 40 P/U should have some yellow calipers! HAHA!!

How did you handle the doors since the door hinges are completely different?
