Here is my Sportgrain convertible, when I got it and after an unfortunate incident with a 'joisy' driver. I had a parts car that I was able to get all of the unique trim from, and also scored a set of correct woodgrain decals for the side. As purchased it had a 383 2 bbl which I've upgraded to...

Do you have a clock? Mine just had the block off for the clock so I mounted a mini tach there.

I have it. I think I have almost a complete setup less the control switch. From what I can make out in the pic, there are both speedo cables, the brake switch and the lever for i that bolts to the brake pedal arm, the vacuum lines, and the bracket that holds the carb cable. I can verify all that...

Very cool! I think that's the only factory literature that I've seen with the sportsgrain model pictured. And a convertible to boot :thumbsup:

Here's my 68 Newport Sport convertible. This pic is about 15 years old in New York. Currently it is off the road awaiting a refresh behind my 72 Satellite. It has a 383, but the 2bbl was ditched for a 4bbl AVS. I have been collecting parts for it over the years to add options that it left the...

Those look like 68 taillights

Newports, New Yorkers and 300s are all basically the same car, but with differing trim. The dash pad from any one of these cars will fit the other. The door panels, seats, etc. will exchange but they have different patterns. Mechanical parts will all interchange and for example the dash will...

Dave, just saw this thread, and I hope things have changed for the better for you. Based on your screen name are you a vet? I am at the VA in West Palm so I would suggest checking for jobs on USAjobs.gov. Good luck! P.S. I'm gonna go to Autogeek’s Cars & Coffee in Stuart on Sat. maybe I'll see...

Thanks FuryGT!

I definitely agree with Dave and baja - SAFETY FIRST!! Brakes first, and after 10 years I would scrap those tires, no matter how good they look or how much tread is left. I have personal experience there; When I first got my TC the tires looked great but I got sideswiped one day by a...

Very nice find! I will have to get mine running and out of the garage, but I have another project in line before it

I have a similar question about the trunklids for a 68 Newport. Are they interchangeable between 2 door, 4 door and convertible?
