I am having a nice sign made by "Grand Illusions". They take awesome pictures of your car and you can have lots of things made with them. While living in Virginia and Wisconsin, VERY few people know what a California Special is. I'd guess I could count on one hand in both states. Many people think it is something I made. I am getting a bit tired of the ignorance. Not when people ask me questions, but when people make remarks like they know what they are talking about to others and they dont. Then if I do say something, then they act all of a sudden like they know all about it. They can even tell me things like I dont have the right taillights cause they are not sequential. Maybe some of you have experienced this.
Anyways, with the photos taken, I am having a sign made. It is a large sign with a neat picture on the top, then specs or whatever else I want written on the bottom.
I also have an Elite Marti report out there too which has helped inform many a looker. But since not everyone takes the time to read about it, this would be an easy clear sign telling a bit, then they can always read the report or ask questions.
ANYWAYS, I was not going to list a bunch of detailed specs. It is a 289 so not a whole lot to brag about engine wise. So, I was just going to say
1968 Mustang
California Special
One of 3867
Originally marketed as a a"California-Only Mustang",
the GT/CS is designed with many Shelby features including
Fog Lights, Hood Pins, Side Scoops, Stripes, Decklid, and Taillights
This is all I was going to say on it. Spaced out of course and different size fonts. I just wanted an opinion on what anyone thought. The more words the smaller the writing and I was looking for something easy to read and catch the eye, that would atleast say "YES, IT'S A REAL CAR!"
