    stock-style UCA for '68?

    Thank! Yes, I have only 1" drop. So, I can just buy 70-73 stock arms and they fit fine and don't change any steering geometry?

    Wich wheelstuds

    OK, I got them installed - they fit my combo just fine. but I guess someone may run into problems - the thread doesn't go all way to the knurl. so with the brake rotor installed I had about 5 mm from the thread end to the rotor surface. my wheels are 8 mm thick at the stud holes so this was OK...

    Wich wheelstuds

    I'm doing the same conversion. Original studs won't fit - they are too short for the combined thickness of brake rotor + alloy wheel. I ordered some studs from Summit Racing but I live in Russia and it takes a while for the packages to arrive. I know it cleared Russian customs so it should be...

    EFI harness options

    EFI harness options

    AFAIK that generation of computers was unaware what tranny was bolted to the engine. so yes, you can use a9l from manual car with AOD

    Are front bump stops really necessary?

    Thank you! It wasn't $2500, I just use their coil-overs, not the whole set-up. But I live in Russia so the shipping cost drive $40 to $140 (or maybe more - those stops are heavy...)

    Are front bump stops really necessary?

    I plan to use TCP front coil-overs on my 68 Fastback. My original bump stops are rusted beyond repair. Do I really need to replace them or I just can do without bump stops at all?

    Pls, help identify this bracket - 68 Fastback

    Since the first body shop was a mistake and the second one did a lot of body work, I have various bits that are not installed on the body. I figured most of them but this bracket puzzles me. Can somebody tell me where this supposed to go?

    68 tailight bezels question

    Thanks for the input, but I live in Russia and I doubt that any seller will pay for the shipping back to the States. Can you tell me what the difference was between 67 and 68 bezels? I cannot move it higher since it barely fits in the holes - the holes are spaced apart further than mounting...
