    ...That's all well & good and good on you, but I don't pass along anything as this. I'm only sharing results of owner/pilot generosity and some huge fun we had because of their trust plus lots of dedicated volunteers working tirelessly at what they love to do. There is nothing in it for me as...

    1968 Another GT/CS heads to Washington...

    Yet another of our herd is off to a new and caring home :-) Going to miss these Mustangs and all the fun they brought so many of us. Great memories and greater futures one & all. And thanks to TJ (who some of you nurtured) for all of his diligence in making them shine! :-)

    . Your thoughts on 64 1/2 Mustang

    ...Just another thought... Where I am, there are a lot of '64.5s and '65s. I know I don't pay that much attention to them and I don't believe they rouse as much curiosity as more unique models. $30K and way less time can get you into something more enjoyable in my (compulsive, impatient and...

    1968 Carburtor leaking...

    ...Hey Rob! I went down & replaced the condenser. Runs great!! (kidding ;-) I finally caught up to Renee on the phone & reasoned that it sat in her barn for two months with a couple of 110-degree days since our last "drive". I simply asked her to place some paper towels under the carb...

    . engine stalls when hot - help

    ...Alright, so here we go again... TJ just called me down to his shop where he has a '66 289 with a fat Edelbrock he just finished detailing. He went to deliver & had it quit numerous times after it warmed up for a bit. After much phone discussion & trial, I went down to inspect. All vacuum...

    1968 Another GT/CS heads to Washington...

    Rob, the best thing that can happen to that boy now would be to spend some time with You! Wrenching or not :-) Indeed, I didn't want to let her go, but the fact is I have too many of these things and too many other things to do. Here we are deep into the season and I have done little more...
