Decoding/Numbers / Re: 1968 Queue Jump ?

That would explain it. I would imagine it must have been changed at the factory as the car spent its life in America until 2 years ago and I purchased it off the importer to New Zealand.

Thank you.

Decoding/Numbers / 1968 Queue Jump ?

« on: December 02, 2023, 04:01:32 AM »

Did my car jump the queue. I have a late build 68 with matching numbers from front to back (with the odd exception of replaced parts, alternator, master cylinder). All date codes are correct on everything that I can find, even the carpet! The only abnormality I can find is the # stamped on the cowl under the wiper panel is one digit out, it then has been altered. I have the protect-o-plate and this is correct to options, engine number and tags. Has this been seen before by anyone?

Anyone have any clips for the 2.5" heater core?  I am in need of some or I will have to make my own.  Where did you come across the info? Thanks.

I got the information from the following link on another forum. I cant find information on the clip for the 2.5". I could only find a 2.5" core here in NZ so I will use that to replace my 2". I will update how I get on with installing. I'm thinking I will have to make clips also.

Found some good information, 2.5" was superseded in March 68 by the 2". Same case was used right through just different clips and pipe seal.

Just removed heater core from my 68.

I always believed 67-68 were 2.5" and the 69 was 2".

This surprised me being only 2", (# 68C) perhaps being a July 68 build it got a change that went into the 69 model.
