Title: NOS shocks
Post by: ruppstang on June 28, 2011, 11:36:00 PM

I got some front NOS shocks for the 68 HCS but the hardware packs were missing. Any idea were correct rubber and hardware can be found?

Our fare for NY for the Long Island show was 433 for weeks till 18 day before the show it dropped to 278. I grabbed them quick. The dumb Chevy rental we got stuck with cost almost as much as the flight.
Check if a flight in to Omaha is less. We could pick you up on our way. Marty

I've never been to a national MCA mustang show and its been a few decades since I last went to a SAAC convention. Since Des Moines isnt that far from Chicago would this be a good show to plan on attending. I'd like to see some truely amazing restorations to gain some knowledge. Wouldn't mind meeting some of you face to face who have been so helpful over the course of the past year. I don't think the car will be done by then but I can hop into the other big red car and take a drive. Goin nort fish'n for a week so no dumb questions from me for the next week.

I'd recommend taking a look.  There should be some good cars there.

Back from fishing (wife caught another musky....as my son said she is so lucky she should play the lottery). Planning on attending DesMoines show and look forward to meeting many of you that have been so helpful this past year.
