    For Sale GT/CS on eBay

    ...Likely not, Ron. He's #165715 and my green 'S' is #169388. I once had the same hopes for my late build, but Bob Teets confirmed "no" ...

    1968 HELP! Car suddenly running bad.

    ...Before you go to a lot of trouble, check all your vaccum lines, plugs & etc... especially if you have power brakes and if the car dies or idles down with brake pressure. My 'J' did the same thing after a long slumber... I found & replaced old lines & a few plugs, plus re-adjusted the idle...

    1968 Do you remember your first?

    ...I bought the first GT/CS I ever saw!.. It had the ass-end of a Shelby and shook the ground as it belched to life like a 2000-HP Corsair! It was likewise admired by elder neighbors (every morning) who timed its thundering reverbs through the windings of the 'hood to the highway and beyond...

    Faith, Strength and Perseverance....

    ...Thanks Peter, The reality is my sister really pulled a fast one. All of us who filmed the various fragments thought it was going to be a little "birthday" spoof back in February! We had no idea it was going to be like "this". I just had to share.... Life is too short to not be reminded of...

    Faith, Strength and Perseverance....

    ....With an added touch of "GT/CS". Some of you have met my sister, Sharon and her husband, Tommy when you visited here. Kind of a long watch - but I felt compelled to share. I don't think you'll be disappointed.... It's about real friends and family. Enjoy :-)...

    1968 Fun at the Petersen Auto Museum

    I have branded three who still talk to me (despite my tossing a fit for having to polish melted nylon from the pipes)

    1968 A very interesting day.

    ...TJ & I did Petersen last year... Mike, this is an inexpressible honor on so many levels! It will be extremely worth a trip to see how they will "do up" the Mustang 50th Anniversary! ....And there you are - sitting smack in the middle of a relatively few other hand-picked Worlds Finest...
