They did make cars for Hertz in 68.  They didn't have the "H" callout in the stripe. Pretty sure the all were auto A/C cars.  My buddy owns 1123.

Yeah, that hose doesn't look right. Possibly wrong radiator or timing cover.  Maybe they were thinking it would run cooler having that hose out in the air.   ;D

I would expect it to have "comfortweave" upholstery and steel wheels/hubcaps.

I think that there were 235 '68 Hertz cars. Mine, 1107, was a NY, NY, car. Prepped by Gotham Ford.

Supposed To be, but there was a batch or so that did not get AC. Pretty sure Vinnie has the numbers.
