coupe to fb interchange

[thumper73q]

I am looking at a 68 coupe 6 cyl yet to go on the market and wonder what good interchanges could be made with a 68 fb.If someone knows what body parts do exchange would you please clue me in? If don't list is shorter that will do.I did a search here and did not find any info.

dude it would be cheaper to find a low cost 68 fastback with v8 and upgrade it yourself. No sense in changing the entire car and then later on have to sell it for a lot less than what you put into it because it wouldnt match the VIN#

thanks rmodel65.was not sure about the doors.All together worth the asking price if local seller's description holds up.My 68 fb project would move along alot faster.

Keep in mind all the inside stuff too.

This is the post Elanor period.... you'd have better luck finding a white unicorn.

If you want to make something different, really kick butt, and veeeerryyyy cool, you might consider a single turbo t3/4 hybrid on an I6 with a 4spd auto behind it. There are many parts for such a item available "down under", and there are several shops that specialise in I6 speed parts here in the US that would be able to help... just a thought.

I dont know about you guys, but here in California I found about 5 68 fastback coupes for sale (3-8,000) between 2003 and 2005.
