Wow! Another year has flown by and it's time again for the CS.com wall calendar! So here's the official call for entries. Please submit your photo no later than Sunday Oct 4, 2015. We've been doing this for a few years and it's always a big success. I'm looking forward to another great one this...

Here's one I don't believe is in the Registry yet. Mike, can you confirm? VIN 8R01C171872 1968 High Country Special, C-code, C4 auto, Presidential Blue. Project car with no engine or trans...

I've finally admitted to myself that there's no way my HCS will be ready to bring to the Fab Fords show this weekend. :sad: So I now have an extra pass if anyone can use it. It's specific to 1967-1968 Mustangs. I'm still going to the show and will be there before the gates open, so I can hand...

Is anyone going to Fab Fords this year? (Knotts Berry Farm, CA) http://www.fabulousfordsforever.com/ I just registered the HCS in all it's rusted, sorry-looking glory. :undecided We'll see if anyone is willing to park next to me! :grin:

I don't think I ever posted about the 2014 F-150 I got last year. It's a SuperCrew XLT with the 3.5L V6 twin turbo Ecoboost. And I absolutely love it! It's the only truck I've ever owned (not counting my '72 Bronco) and it drives better than most cars. I was a bit nervous towing the Bronco for...

My HCS has surprisingly little rust considering how many winters it spent in Colorado, but the battery tray area is toast. It's even worse than it appears in the photo. The horizontal shelf that the battery tray bolts to is total swiss cheese and needs to be cut out. I know replacement...

I know this has been talked about briefly here before, but Ford offered a '68 Sportsman Special package very similar to the 1966-1967 High Country Special. It was offered on the 1968 Bronco, F100 and F250. It came in one of 3 special paint colors; Boulder Bronze, Mountain Green, Sky Blue A...

I've finally decided that it's time to either start working on my High Country Special or sell it. It's been sitting for an embarrassingly long time (8-9 years) without being started. I know, I know. I should be flogged and my membership card revoked! :embarass: You know that annoying guy in...

As some of you noticed, the photo uploads stopped working recently. It turns out that a server upgrade wasn't totally compatible with the forum software. So I've updated the forum software tonight, which seems to have fixed the issue. However, even with a minor forum upgrade like this one is...

Cool step back down memory lane. Not my style, but it was all the rage at the time. :smile: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Car-LOOK-/111007546563?item=111007546563 VIN: 7R02C223348 Columbine Blue, C-code 289, 4 speed, sold in Julesburg, CO. Bob, do you have this one logged in the Registry?

New CA "black plates" - State to offer replica "retro" license plates Not for the purists, but these "new" black plates would add a nice touch to those GT/CS's still in CA. I'm guessing they won't match the originals exactly since there probably need to meet current safety requirements like...
