Jon,
I like the idea of the collage of cars on the final page being Jan 06, great thinking. You did a great job on getting this done in a very short time-frame, and for all those that submitted pictures, you should all be proud of your cars! Now all I have to do is wait for the 2007 because that is how long it will take be to get my car done, but I can still enjoy everyone elses.

Great job Jon. Hope you don't mind but, I've sent the link to the calendar's to our webmaster for our local Mustang Club here in Ohio and to the webmaster for the 1968 Mustang folks as well. Hope you get a ton of orders.

Doug; Looking forward to seeing your car in 2007.

Happy Holidays to all.

Don :D

Super Job! Ordered mine in minutes - Nice and easy to order with PayPal. Those are some beautiful cars - congratulations to everyone on the calendar. This will also help us advertise this special breed of mustang! I look forward to next year when I can enter the GT/CS I received this weekend. This is a great website - thanks Jon.

Wow! You guys are ordering way more of these than I would have guessed. :eek: I thought I ordered plenty, but maybe not. There are definitely enough ordered for those who have already paid online, but then only about 50 after that.

Thanks for the support everyone!

Hello Jon, I mailed a money order yesterday for the "five pack". Hopefully there will be some available by the time it arrives.

Regards, Dave.

Thanks Dave. I'll hold them aside for you.

You bring up a good point though. If anyone else has mailed me a payment could you contact me to let me know how many you ordered? Thanks!

Hey Paul;
Not to change the subject but, at almost every show I've been to folks ask me if that's my car on the cover of your first book. Gee - Wonder why. Gotta love that Royal Maroon. Looks like the cars for April & November are twins. Would like to know if April's car is a "390 S Code" also? Guess I'll find out when my calendar's arrive.

That April car would be mine. Unfortunately not a 390 big block just a 302 4V. But with the stock 3:25 gears I can make it move quite well.
Quite a few GTCS cars up here in the frozen north (Southern Alberta).

I love that maroon paint, too. It waxes to a beautiful sheen in the sun, too (but looks almost like brown on a dreary,rainy day, or in the snow at Tahoe).

That same color was used on Cougars (known as black cherry), and on the Lincolns and Mercs of the same year.

My paint is still original. It's non-metallic, so the sun can't break it down as fast as a metallic (orig.)paint. Although--anyone with lime gold original paint in great condition should be commended!!

Joe;
Thanks for your reply. 390 or not it's a very nice looking car. I would truly love sometime to get a bunch of us up "North" together and just cruise together somewhere. Granted I'm not as far North as some, but, hey, I did my stent with the Air Force, up in Grand Forks, North Dakota and I loved it. Would have retired there except they felt it their duty to move me to Southern California. Go figure. Joe, thanks again for your reply.

Don ;)

How about meeting at the Ford National in Carlisle? I ran across several owners that aren't registered while at Carlisle show. I tried to enroll then but no interest. ::)

Tom;
Sounds like a good idea to me. Myself and Racing Fan met there last year in June for the All Ford Nationals at Carlisle. Unfortunatly it rained almost the whole weekend. Still had a good time even though I was unable to take my CS. Took my GT Coupe instead. I try to plan at least one out of state trip every year but, with the MCA Grand Nationals Stampede being held in Youngstown, OH in Sept, and our local club being involved with that, I'll have to see how my schedule shakes out. Still would be nice to try and do. Now that my CS is pretty much done except for some fine tuning would be nice to take it. The CS has never been on an out of state trip yet. The GT has been all over the place (Michigan for Ford's 100th, Nashville for the 40th anniversary and Carlisle last June).

Don :D
