That’s the casting number. The first 8 digits are the part number, the 12 is the number of times the casting was revised. The 6-20-68 is the casting date of the block. It’s totally possible that the block can be cast that far in advance of your cars assembly date. on a flat of about 3” long...

yep, that’s my car. It needs a new home if you know of anybody that would like a cool little car, please pass it along!

Here’s the first one to drive in the garage when it was built

There’s a few things in my garage, it’s a never ending roundabout of projects

how about kids, dogs and convertibles!

I’m always in the camp of dog dish, which if original would be the way I would stay.

It’s charming, I love it. I’d like to see it scaring the good folks down at Woodward this year!

Pistol grip in a 68?

Bakers is easy for me, and it’s on a Sunday, just have to get some of my buds to remind me when they’re going.

where you at brother? I’m definitely going to pick up the original owner and take him to the Hines cruise and show, and maybe a couple others in the city. You give me some cruises to hit, I’ll try my best to be there. I live near Ann Arbor.

Thanks everybody, I really feel at home here, everybody is very supportive of each other, a very welcoming feeling. Cant wait for spring, it’s been a long winter here in the Mitten, supposed to be 50 this weekend, a promising start to March! Enjoy those birds folks, it’s nice to be among friends!

Beautiful car, but I agree....are they ever really done? You know what I always say, if it ain’t broke, beat on it till you break it!

Here in the Mitten, we can use same year plates, so that’s what I run on all of my old cars. It’s $35 for life, and I’ve never been pulled over for driving the car whenever I want. Of course I don’t daily them, but I’ll take em wherever I’m going if I can.

The brush on POR-15 would make quick work of those little rusty welds. It’s quite the moisture lock!

We routinely took my GTX to the Nationals in my brothers 20’ Pace trailer, not a problem with room to get around, and heavy duty enough to not worry about the haul. Pace Trailers also use the torsional axles, not the leaf spring style, and it makes for a much smoother pull, and ride for the car...

Ah yes, the old blacked out engine bay!

Wow! That is one beautiful car. Great job on it, I love the look!

All 70 for me. My Dad had a 70 when I was a kid, and that’s all I’ve wanted since then. Finally got my own a couple years ago, and it came through the same dealership as my Dads car. Cant ask for more than that!

There is extra added stiffening inside the rocker on each side as well, double the thickness of the standard rocker for a roof car.

I would add one. These cars are big and heavy, so cornering in them needs all the help it can get.
