Here is my (as I was told) 1968 Thunderbird the day it arrived home. Needless to say it looks nothing like that now. Anyway, I have not been able to find any ads/ brochures, anything online about 1968 models. Can anyone confirm this is a T-bird and provide me with a model name? The ID plate is gone. There is a number stamped near the transom, F1703XXX.

Also, does anyone know what the fuel tank is made out of? The floor of mine was just redone within the past couple years, so I am NOT going to tear it up this year. But I would like to use the tank. My problems are that (1) I need to clean it first, and (2) I have no idea where the sender wiring should be. The outlet hose is original and needs to be replaced. I THINK I can get to the base where it's attached if I'm careful.

Thanks!

Dave
