Good eye!

I have been conversing with a guy on a '68 Shelby. I noticed that the taillights have the black surround. I was under the impression, like on the GTCSs that they should be all chrome?!?! Can anyone pipe in on the issue? He forwarded me this in an email: "...From what I read in The...

The plates are in and Annie Loves them! Please excuse the garage mess tho.

Clones Thank you Mosesatm. I am planning on hunting out an S code or X code GT/CS and will definitely order a Marti when the time comes and have the vehicle inspected, since our last one turned out to have a non-matching numbers engine and extensive rear frame damage

Clone Vs Real GT/CS So is there somewhere that cars on the online registry list whether they are clones or not, or just by searching the threads? - for future reference I contacted the seller and his response to verifying it is a real GT/CS is: Art Macri <[email protected]> 5:53 AM (4 hours...

Apparently you didn't read my point clearly. "This, if it is a clone should be noted clearly as such to aid in those looking to get a real GT/CS" I am not telling anyone what should be or not be in the registry but rather denote that something is a clone. When I first looked for a GT/CS I would...

Authentication the fact that it is in the registry is very misleading! If someone goes on the forum to check the VIN they will think it is real, since it is listed in the registry! This, if it is a clone should be noted clearly as such to aid in those looking to get a real GT/CS. I...

That would be Lyndon B. Johnson's Thanksgiving Proclamation, JFK left us Nov 22nd 1963.

This particular car also features a 302 c.i. V-8, automatic transmission, vinyl roof, and aftermarket wheels. It has been completely restored and is in excellent condition.Exterior: White // Engine size: 302 Ci. Automatic // Engine type: V-8 // Horsepower: 230 // Torque: N/A...

I use to have a 2010 GT in Windveil Blue, and since the wife is vertically challenged at 5'1"ish and she couldn't see over the hood, refusing to ever drive it. She nicknamed it the "Mistress." Funny when asked where I was and she would jokingly say, "out with the Mistress" - Good Memories

Thanks, I always value the opinions on this forum and believe me, I have driven the shop crazy with questions as to the best way to preserve the GT/CS but be able to enjoy it as well.

A message from the Pros at Gearhead Garage who are doing the work: The current 8-inch rear will not support any real horsepower/torque and I've recently priced better gears and posi, etc for one. They cost more money due to less options so not worth it. Most people just upgrade to a 9 and...

Thanks CougarCJ, Some of us cannot afford to do a Concours-quality restoration straight out the gate. If I was to wait until I could, this GT/CS would not see the light of day for many years and I rather my wife enjoy her car until we can afford the resto as well as give people a chance to...

"When it comes to old cars, nothing is truly original,” Strictly speaking, anything done to a vehicle inside and out over the course of its life—from changing an engine’s spark plugs to replacing a front fender—takes away from the originality of the car. Do you want the car to be able to compete...

I fully understand, everything that we are considering can be reversed and we have been keeping the original parts. But due to the abuse that the previous owner did to this vehicle, we have decided to make it one awesome resto-mod and once the body work is done, she will be back to normal for...

Wow! that is nice and expensive. We have so far done: Wilwood disc brakes on all 4 corners, beefed up front suspension with a few polyurethane components, Borgeson power steering conversion, larger front sway bar, 620 lb 1" lowering springs, roller perches, custom Bilstein Street performance...

So, the time has come to do a little more work on the lil' Cali Special. She will be going under the knife in December. This round: New Battery Tray and Apron to replace rusted out one Exhaust - 5" case Super 40 Flowmasters / some long tube Header (Hooker maybe) - finally going to a dual...

I am thinking about installing this and would also like to know if anyone has any instruction or helpful tips?
