    Saturday morning PCV system installation pictures

    My 390 is a Canada car and on the Marti report it stated non emissions system. When I got the car I figured out it did not have a correct PCV system and was pieced together from 69/70 parts. I was having a problem where my S tube was not connecting to the snorkel correctly so I figured out I...

    1/18th scale Mustang models

    When I was in New Zealand I picked up a 1/18th scale 68 390 GT fastback model at the Southward car Museum. They sell these here for about $100 and they are very nice models.
