    1968 Newspaper Research

    I stumbled across the same newspaper archive site about 6 months ago. I was able to search and save about 40 newspaper ads for the GT/CS from all over California. Its a neat site for seeing the past archived. Casey

    Way cool. Surely an Ohm meter can do the same thing...but this is cooler!:cool:

    . Babe magnet or guy magnet

    I have some comparison experience - My 66 convertible (blue with white top) attracts women and men equally - it also attracts young (teens) and old (seniors) equally. Something about the style and color combo of that year car attracts everyone. I have even had ladys at shows asked me if it...

    I have a floor shifter from when I converter to console. If you need it let me know. You bought the car I always wanted, so I only feel compelled to add a little of "me" to it :smile: Send me a PM and we can work it out. Casey

    1968 Cyl head question/engine update

    A thought - Put the engine under a tarp somewhere and put a 347 stroker in the car. This is a 302 stroked to 347. David Athans did this, and then I put my 289 in storage and did the same thing. Joe did it too. So there are plenty of people that have gone this route to give you advice. Given...

    . push rod/rockers help

    Robert. That was an awesome explanation and I really appreciate it. One can read books all day, but to have it explaned by someone who does it makes the difference. I have done the static adjustment of valves in firing order, and always wondered why. Now I know. I have seen people do it with...

    . push rod/rockers help

    Here is my dumb question of the day. Why do the valves have to be adjusted in timing order? Can't I just bump the engine until the rocker arm is topped and then tighten it until the push rod is not spinning (and then a quarter turn). Can't I just do that for each valve without regard to...

    2010 Mustang Revealed

    I like it. They took away some of the "boxy-ness" of the previous versions by adding a smaller grill and rounded rear. Love the bulged hood and the duck tail type spoiler. I am glad they did not do a radical redesign - this is very tasteful. My two cents....Casey

    The Dow or my GT/CS

    Well.....while the Dow is down 40% from last year and in a free fall the last few days, it sure is nice to be able to go out to the garage and see my GT/CS, touch and feel it and then take a ride in it. At least it is an asset that did not evaporate along with all the paper assets on the Dow...

    Incredible Day!!!

    Congratulations! Well Deserved. I had my CS in the Barrington Concours D'Elegance this past weekend, but exhibitor only - not judging. It was just a treat to have the CS in the same company as 100 of the world's most rare cars like Buggatis, Roll Royce Phaetons, Gull Wing Mercedes, Pierce...

    The Happy Place you drive your GT/CS to.

    You guys are probably going to hate me for saying this.....but I honestly get out a folding chair in the garage, prop my feet up on something, with a cold drink in my hand, and just look at my GT/CS......sometimes I then fall asleep. That is my favorite spot:icon_wink . (and, yes, I do drive...
