1968 442 Convertible




We bought this car in May of 1999. It is a 68 442 convertible with a 1976 455 block with an Edelbrock Performer intake and an Edelbrock 1406 Carb.
It has "E" heads with "Z - W" exhaust manifolds. I updated the front suspension to Energy Suspension poly-graphite bushings.
It has a TH400 with a shift kit, air conditioned, bucket seats with a column shift (soon to be converted to a floor/console).
I am changing the open 2:78 rear to a posi with 3:23 gears.
In addition to the 68 we also have a 1970 F-85 with a 350 and a TH350 we just bought (2001) from the original owner.
They both need some work still but it is still more fun to just drive em!
