Shock tower reinforcements

<< < (2/2)

J_Speegle:
Sounds like a few owners may have replaced the shock towers with the current reproductions - with the additional reinforcements that look like the CJs

Apparently you've posted this question on a handful of sites and the unanimous response from the Cougar guys was no- they didn't come that way

sportyworty:
I have never seen any Cougar with wrap around reinforcements before intro of the 68.5. Interesting would like to see this. I had a S code 67 GT 4 speed car so will look for the pics. We do know that R code 68 Cougars did not require the GT package nor the Mandatory extra cost option PDB like the Mustang brother. Some are 4 wheel drum non GT.

I believe that the only wrong question is the one that's not asked, but in the light of current information Im  learning to take more of these things with a grain of salt.

RoyceP:
I realize this is an old topic but this needs to be said in case someone googles it years from now.

Even the '68 big block cars did not have the shock tower reinforcements until late March of '68. When the change happened, all big block cars started to get the reinforcements, including X codes and S codes and the rare late W code cars, along with the R codes. Again, didn't happen in '67 at all.
