Not sure about the car's shipped north but, the air cleaner bucket isn't right for this car. Valve covers are fine but what happened to the chrome cover and the side air valve on the air cleaner. Don - 68gt390

Found this article on the net and found it very interesting. Not only did this individual have millions of dollars in gold coins but, also had a 1968 GT/CS in garage as well. This gentleman evidently passed away in Jun 2012 and when they went to settle his estate that's when the small fortune...

Excellent job, It's nice to see another big block car restored and back on the road. Don

Take a look at the hood - F O R D - on the hood indicates a 67 hood to me. I'd definitely want to see a "Marti Report" on this car. Don - 68gt390

What's up Mike? I found the following post you made back on 7/3/2006 at 01:34am regarding the Marchal lights. Don - 68gt390 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To give you a quick lesson. All GT/CS cars built prior to April 26th, 1968 were...

The following link should take you directly to the diecast. Price has dropped considerably. They were $69 two weeks ago. http://www.americanmuscle.com/mustang-collectibles.html Don

When it comes to selling a classic car it's the same old story - everyone wants something for nothing. They want the car but, don't want to pay for what they are getting. You put your sweat and blood into the restoration and someone else figures they can come along and pick it up cheap. In...

Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Don :smile:

The thing that bothers me are the shackels on the rear leafs. Have never been a big fan of that way to lift the car. Don

Mine does the same thing on the drivers side. When it rains, I have to run a small piece of vacume tubing inside my regular trunk seal to keep the rain from running over into the trunk area. It's the nature of the beast. I haven't seen a true CS or Shelby yet that doesn't have that problem...

As has been said on this site many times - It's your car build it the way you want it. I've had people criticize me for dropping a 428CJ into my CS. It's not about the awards for me anyhow. I go to have fun. If someone doesn't like what I've done to my car that's their problem not mine...

For those opting to purchase from Branda, I'd do it pretty quick. I talked to them earlier this week and they mentioned they only had a few copies left. Seem to be selling pretty quick. Don

Mine arrived Tuesday. Thank goodness the post office wrapped the box in a plastic bag. It was raining like cat's and dog's. Haven't actually sat down and gone through the entire book but, from what I've seen so far I think Paul did an excellent job. Was well worth the wait. Don

I received several window clings this week from Paul and in the envelope was a printed note that said the book would be out mid November 2010. I am looking forward to seeing it. Don

If memory serves me correctly I think the May auction is in Indy. I may have to drive to Indy for this auction. Besides it would give me an excuse for a road trip outside of Columbus. Don
