Default 68 Vert UPDATE!
Hi all, I don't post here much, but do read a lot. You guys do some wild stuff...lol.
fyi, here's what my vert looked like when I first joined: https://lateral-g.net/forums/showthread.php4?t=713

Over the past 15 months, I've repainted the car (myself, in my garage) Replaced the entire interior (still needa recover the front seats tho), rebuilt the numbers matching 327 (currently a numbers matching 383, scat 9000 crank, 6" i-beam capscrew rods, srp fored pistons, comp 270h cam, dart iron eagle 180 heads, perf rpm, ed 1406, msd RTR, etc etc...) and added a TKO500 trans.

Next on the list is brakes, I'll be posting some questions and looking for some answer in the appropriate place.

Good call on the D90 stripe, it was always my favorite paint scheme for the 68's.

Great work! And that is a pretty quick timeline when you are doing the work yourself! Thanks for the update.
