Default Re: 1968 P01 wheel covers

Hi Mark:
I guess I all depends on what you plan on doing with the car.Once you change the gears and put headers on it the car is no longer built original. If you plan on driving it you will appreciate the power steering and the power disc brakes.Just keep the original parts in case you want to make it 100% stock some day and it is a easy switch back
Have you driven one of these big 427 bears with standard steering and brakes. If not I would start there then drive one with the factory discs and p/s. I cannot count how many times over the years I could not get one of these big sleds stopped with the manual brakes.It is not a secure feeling.
Many of the 68's came with the discs and the rally wheel covered with a full hub cap. They look real good and were common on a lot of the police packages.
take care
Joe
