    Heard a interesting story about a 428 CS last night

    Was at a large (175+) car cruise in last night. There is a lcal guy that likes 428 cars (68's) and has 3-4 of them. I was talking to him and my car came up and he said he knows where a real 428 CS is sitting in a field in Colorado. He said the car is almost too far gone and the guy will not...

    Just finished a project today

    Installed new Aqua carpet in the 390. Now all the interior matches (old carpet was a strange green color). Took me about 3.5 hours and I only yelled 3 cuss words (after I had to take the console apart 3 times because of the $%%&^*&%^$ shifter). I will try and put up some pictures on my new...

    Someone hoping to strike gold on Ebay for hood locks

    Amazing the greed some people have. These can be bought NOS for roughly $200 or less. I think Ford Tooling sets sell for roughly $140. I am not usually one to complain about stuff like this but this got under my skin...

    What a bummer that came in the mail today

    A few days ago I scored a NOS set of rocker trim panels off of Ebay for my 390 for a great price. They arrived today and were both bent waaaaay beyond repair.

    Doing a few things on my 390 CS

    I replaced the valve covers on my 390 CS the other day and once they were done I cranked it up and drove it around a little. The engine was missing and obviously there was some kind of problem. I could not figure it out so I had it flatbedded to my shop. They found that the rotor was damaged...

    last page of Mustang Monthly has a 390 automatic CS

    quote from the picture Walter Flood can count himself amoung the fortunate few when it comes to owning a 68 California Special with a big block engine. Of the 4025 GT/CS hardtops built, only 54 were powered by the S code 390 with a C-6 automatic transmission. Now in Brooksville, Florida...
