I have a set of original Autolite shocks that came off a 400 mile Cobra Jet first fifty Mustang built in December of 1967. The fronts are mint with NO pitting being in the tower and rear rears have minor pitting mainly missing paint. All the factory part numbers and stampings can be read. They have not leaks and have full resistance when pulling apart or collapsing. They would be great for a survivor car. I have not sanded on them and they retain there original paint.
Fronts part #'s are C8ZF-18045-H1 with date codes of T7LE
Rears part #'s are C8ZF-18080-G1 with date codes of J7KD
Prices is $3,000 or make offer for the set and includes shipping inside the US. Thanks David.

Those ID numbers were not used on the Shelbys

Thank you, They are off an original Cobra jet no doute about it. Were the Shelbys Koni and not Autolite? Thank you

Coralsnake

1968 Shelbys were all Autolite Z7ZD-A three way adjustables front and rear...

Except KRs (CJ 4spd) cars they used a Z7ZD-A front and C8ZF-J rear

No Konis used in 1968

There are a lot of Mustang guys here too , good luck

Were these from a 68 1/2 CJ Mustang?
