Almost ready for the road. 68 400 I purchased as first car back in 1983.

Lots of factory options on this one, disc brakes, 8 track, dlx interior, 4sp, fold down rear seat, head rests, 3:36 gears, vanity mirrors, walnut shift knob, remote mirror, etc.

Did some upgrades to make it a driver, rear disc brakes, Holley sniper efi, ram air restoration cast headers, 744 cam. Not a restoration, but not a full resto-mod.

Will post more as finally finish interior and get it on the street.

Looking great! Is that Aegena Blue, or Black? Hard to tell from the lighting.

Looks nice! I'm restoring a 68 400 4 speed coupe Aegena Blue which is similar to your color. I can't wait to get it back from body and paint - restorations can take a long time.
