The midsize (Torino/Fairlane) 428 CJ cars received a hood scoop in 1969. A few of those pre production for 69’ pics include 68’ flat hood 428 CJ cars.

I finally took a couple of pics of this one for you all. Looks like a Motion but the chances are it’s a hood addition only. Now if someone thinks it’s a remote possibility I’ll throw a line in the...

Re: Parnelli Jones Torino?

The date would need to be April 1 or later for the CJ. It is likely that PJ ordered a few cars for the conversion at the same time as this one being built in Feb. I was a previous owner of one of the...

Re: Value 68 Shelby GT 500

For 1968 most Shelby's were non Trac Lok including the pre KR 500 cars. Crazy to think the 3.89 was an open carrier. Notice how the KR never even offered a high axle ratio yet was the Trac Lok. If...

Re: Lightweight Galaxie bell housing?

Odd ball based on the part number being the cast unit I would guess it is a race part. A cheater made for a ringer. The only alum used on a factory app FE 63-65 was the RC. You have an extremely rare...
