Guest AlK Posted January 21, 2003 Share Posted January 21, 2003 Having sold my 33K mile t-bird and the person not wanting to spend the extra money for the spare parts, they are now available. If you have a basic shell, the parts that I have will rebuild it. I have about 60% of a car. fenders doors, two sets of seats, window glass, wiring, inner fenders, trim bumpers, valance panals, + boxes of ????? this is an all or nothing deal. I spent an afternoon calling all the t-bird dealers i could find to get prices for the major items, and I stopped calling when I hit $3300. I will sell all of this for under $1,000. the 1968 is a bear of a year to find anything for as any of you that has one can atest to, and as the dealers have told me. In spite of this the dealers don't want the parts because they can't get them all for $50. The idea is to sell the parts not give them away. Surely there is someone out there who is working on a 1968 t-bird that can use these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AlK Posted June 15, 2003 Share Posted June 15, 2003 You mean out of the 23 people that read this post, not one of you needs these parts??? Still got 'em. 68' are the rarest of the 67/69 range, nothing from a 67 fits and nothing from a 69 fits, even though the 67 stuff will fit the 69 and vice-versa.

Guest AlK Posted January 4, 2004 Share Posted January 4, 2004 Now the count is 50, these are not free parts but they are cheap, come on surely someone is restoring a 68 t-bird out there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pontiac59 Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 I know where a whole '68 coupe sits, rotting, and it probably will for a long time when you can buy a running car on eBay for $500, the same year. Not a popular car, for whatever reason. I couldn't even see any interest in '61-'63 ragtops or a '67/8 Galaxie XL fastback. Kind of a shame, the T-bird was driven to where it's been parked the last 20-odd years, it's not scary yet but it will be before much longer.

Guest AlK Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Just renewing. 222 lookers. Maybe somebody has materialized that needs these part. It is strange, but I think it has to do with the desirability. The 68 was a mongrel year 67-69 will not fit though they will fit each other and nothing from 68 will fit 67-69. So if someone is doing a 68 they will be hard pressed to find these parts at a reasonable price, other than mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even better put them on ebay and they'll probably be gone PDQ though being as close to Christmas as it is car parts get a bit slow even on ebay.Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
