Damn sweet looking '68, more than a mouthful. Need more pics and deets (4sp? how original?). Looks like that stripe is in the right place.

Beautiful car. It even has the "dealer accessory" passenger side mirror. I'm curious if the driver side mirror is the standard one (matches the passenger side) or is the optional (D33) remote control outside mirror.

That's the first side stripe I like. That is a very black car; that paint has depth.

Black looks so good on that car. I have to say though. Holy crap that car must be a hot some bitch in the summer. My 70 only had a black interior and even here in Colorado was so hard to drive during the day in the summer. Your car looks great. I love that it was passed on to you. Sounds like you cared about him. That's awesome to me. 🍻🙏
