    Oklahoma in Dec.

    Does anyone know of anything exciting going on in the Oklahoma City area the weekend of Dec 15/16? Looks like I'll be there and need something to do. Swap meets with Ford parts are prefered but I'm open to suggestion. Steve

    Hot August Nights Auction

    I just got a flyer from Silver Auctions that runs the auction every year at Hot August Nights in Reno. One of the cars listed is a CS. Here's the link if anyone is going and interested. http://www.silverauctions.com/auction_view.php?eventid=37&lotid=5815 Steve

    GT/CS sighting!

    I've been spending the weekend rebuilding a retaining wall in front of my house. I was on my way to buy more wall blocks when I spotted an Acapulco Blue CS on the side of the road. Believe it or not, my first thought was "Hey, Arlie's in the area", and I pulled over. Alas, it wasn't Arlie but a...

    High Country Bob

    I've been gone so much lately it's hard to keep up/catch up, but in case no one else has done it, I want to congratulate HC Bob for his mention in the latest Mustangs and Fords mag. as having a super rare car. Way to go Bob! Steve

    WTB: 302 Power steering pulley

    I need a pulley for a 302 with air. The part number is C7AZ-3A733-D and will have "7AD" stamped on the front. If you have one you want to get rid of, send me a private email. I don't check in as often as I used to lately, but have been checking my email every other day or so. Thanks. Steve

    May Mustang and Fords

    OK, maybe I missed the post, but is the owner of the '68 and '07 CS's in Mays' Mustang and Fords Readers' Roundup one of our own? Steve

    2008 Shelby GT500KR

    Well it looks like Ford is getting closer with the correct retro look for the new Shelby. Let's see if they come up with something different for the CS as well. By the way, 550-600 rear wheel horsepower from the factory makes me a little lightheaded. :icon_ecst Steve...

    One of my cars for sale.

    I figured off topic was the best place to post this since it's not a CS. I'm selling one of my cars to make some room and free up some cash for other things. Here's a link to my ad. It should come out in hardcopy in a couple of weeks. If anyone knows of someone looking for a nice convertible, I...

    2007 GT/CS magazine mention.

    For those of you that collect such things, my latest issue of "Mustangs and Fords" has a short blurb about the '07 CS. It's at the end of the article about being on the "Overhaulin" set and they rented one to get around in, and liked it enough to give a side bar to it. Steve

    Tail light wiring resto.

    This will detail how I would/did go about restoring the tail light wiring harnesses. I'm assuming all the basic checks (bulbs, fuses, etc.) have been looked at and you've come to the conclusion that either your sockets or the bucket harnesses are bad. Begin by removing the tail light lenses and...

    "Paint Stripe" opinions

    On another thread, the opinion seemed to lean toward a pin stripe at the top of the body line (with some pretty convincing documentation for me by the way) for the line on a Marti report that calls for a paint stripe. Mine is supposed to have a red paint stripe so I modified one of my pictures...

    Email to Ford

    I just went to Fords' corporate web page and after wandering around a little, found where I could email them and tell them what I thought about their suing any company with "Mustang" in their name. I was polite (except maybe the "cheap sob's" comment) and explained that I felt these companies...

    '67 Front Window cranks

    I picked up a set of front window cranks that I'm not going to use. One is in pretty good shape and the other has pitting on the chrome. These are the ones with the metal knobs that we were discussing a while back. If anyone wants them for the $8.50 I paid plus shipping to you, they're...

    OK, I know some of you have posted personal pictures for your avitar. How do I get the picture down to 19.5kb or 80x80 pixels? Steve

    Swap meet wish list.

    Last year I offered to look for parts for people at the Portland, Or. swap meet and I'm offering the same thing this year. The rules are as follows: If I buy it for you, you pay for it. End of rules. I need to know what condition you will accept (NOS, Repop, nice original, etc.) and how much you...

    Members gallery

    My gallery doesn't show up in the members gallery, just under my name, but I'm sure it used to be there. How do I get it to appear? Steve

    Non CS car for sale

    I have a friend in Oklahoma that has a '68 Torino GT fastback project that he's trying to sell. If anyone in that area is looking for something like this, let me know and I'll get you both together. He didn't give me a price, but I don't think he wants very much. Steve (Jon, if this isn't...

    2006 NW mini meet.

    My planning is coming along and I just thought I'd update/remind everyone. June 16th-18th we have an event called "Car d'Alene" (a play on Coeur d'Alene). They have a cruise/parade on Fri. night and I have permission from the people putting it on for us to join the cruise as a group. Sat. is a...
