    1968 sequential LED taillights

    Earlier this year I converted to sequential LED tail lights. I know it's not original but I really like the look and it's simple enough to return to original state. This kit made by Mustang Project (and available through NPD) is basically plug & play. Very easy install...

    1968 Brake question

    Thanks for your response Neil. So are you saying that if I don't see a leak (at the MC or elsewhere) that the Master Cylinder is "bypassing inside" and needs to be replaced? Thanks, -Doug

    1968 Brake question

    Thanks for your reply. The fluid level in the master cylinder looks good but I'll have someone apply the brakes while I look at the mc to see if I can spot any leakage.

    1968 Brake question

    I'm noticing when I apply continuous pressure to my brake pedal, say while at a stop light, that the pedal is slowly sinking toward the floor and then the dash brake light will come on. When I release the brake pedal the brake light goes out. Braking seems to be OK, it doesn't feel unsafe. At...

    1968 Clock

    Speaking of these clocks, does anyone have a spare knob that goes on to the end of the adjustment stem that sticks out of the front of the clock? I could search for a replacement clock but thought I'd check here first.

    1968 paul newitt

    Yes, despite the difficulties that occurred between him and others, I've always found Paul to be very fair and kind to me personally. He was in town at the time the new book first became available and he took the time to hand-deliver the new recognition guide to my home. Not a big deal but, to...

    1968 Check out the new Online Registry Section

    I just registered as well. Worked OK. I just noticed a couple small, minor errors in my data though. Is there a way I can go back into my entry to edit? -DLedin

    I would guess he purchased three books. I received two stickers & I assume it was because I purchased two books. -DLedin

    1968 Good news / Bad news from the 2011 Recognition Guide

    There was mention by Paul in a book update that the DVD would not be coming with the book. See here: http://californiaspecial.com/forums/showthread.php?p=79343#post79343 Given somethingspecial's post above, it doesn't sound like a DVD will be happening. -DLedin

    1968 Vinyl Roof Question

    I don't know what other vinyl top colors may have been available but parchment was a vinyl top color option in '68. One of the debut GTCS cars had that color. I don't believe the GTCS side stripe colors are specified on the Martis, at least it's not on mine, so your guess about the black paint...

    . Your thoughts on the new California Special book/registry

    Perhaps not but it would be better if Paul were to give his OK to do so. I think Jon is making the right decision. Short of that, I would imagine that more than a few forum members here have, or will soon have, the book and giving page numbers to refer to would be an alternative (as well as...

    . Your thoughts on the new California Special book/registry

    Rob, One of the things that cast doubt for you was the rear panel/recessed gas cap question. Has your opinion changed on that as well? The photos you refer to above, are they from the new book? -DLedin

    . Your thoughts on the new California Special book/registry

    This wouldn't surprise me, that Paul tracked down the photographer. It would have been a potentially fruitful lead to follow. I too would like to see further data research (but it's not cheap and not my money). As you mentioned, I think if Ford did not build a similarly optioned, non-GTCS...
