    1968 Ouch! Again!

    Oh My God, Rob. I'm still wiping away the tears. Glad your ok and the car will be too. Just toss the shorts, Bad Memories. I'm getting a clearer vision of how the BBQ is going to go. Can't wait for more Rob stories. Bret

    I can smell Bremerton in Monroe!! Don't rush it too much tho. I still need to get my eng. and trans back in the car, ARGH. Everytime I go into the garage, I see something else that needs cleaned up or painted. I need to put on a blindfold and just put it back in and drive her!!! I'm getting...

    For Sale J-Code 4 speed

    Beautiful car. I think Jason is right in the ball park. Even with the mods, it is very tastefully done. If I still lived in Medford, we could hook up. Have you been to the cruise in Medford that's usually in June? Next year I'll bring my car down and visit my family. kill two birds with one...

    World's Rarest '68 Mustang

    I emailed him and asked if he had a Marti report and this is what he replied with. "Never bothered to pull one. I know a lot of people go by them, but they usually just validate the vin and body plate. I have rarely seen any earth shattering discoveries. I wrote Ford on it and basically got...

    Borgeson power steering

    Has anyone thought about using the new Borgeson gear box? It's in the latest Mustang Monthly. Looks like it would be a lot more mechanic friendly as far as dealing with leaks. I'm just not sure if the price is really worth it. I haven't ever dealt with a leaky system. I've purchased everything...

    . July 2010 Seattle MCA Show, Northwest Get Together Part Two

    Like wise Rob, I think I'll fast for a day before. Can't believe it's only Feb. I've been looking forward to this since we started talking about it. I look forward meeting everyone and putting faces to names. Must go bust a knuckle or two on the car. You know you have a problem/obsession when...

    found a c4

    Yeh, I think I'll do it separately, only because I'm limited on height. 9' ceiling in the garage and car on ramps and jack stands. Not even sure I'll have enough room to lift the engine out with it on ramps. It'll be close. The challenges of being a shade tree mechanic, gotta love it. Makes you...

    found a c4

    I picked up a c4 from a guy in Bellevue for a $100, that was replacing it with a 4 speed in his '34 ford. He didn't know the mileage, but guaranteed it to work good or he'd make it right. With the correct block plate. It also came with a Lokar cable, Don't know if it will have the right length...

    Amy, I'll be there for the BBQ and Sun. I'll probably also do the Fri. run. I'm busy replacing the trans and pulling the engine to get the engine bay more presentable. Bret

    1968 Thinking about adding to the stable...

    Just Do It, H1's will come and go. This may be the last chance to grab '68 Shelby at a "fair" price. As far as the Mustang addiction, No one can cure it!!! That's all I have to say about that. Bret

    Winter in Iowa

    I really enjoy seeing the pics of the snow. Much better than the constant rain in Seattle. Powell, is that pic going west on 26 past the zoo? I lived on 170th in Aloha from '92-'94 While attending PCC in Hillsboro. We really like the area. Bret

    fmx removal

    I've finally started to drop out my trans and ran into a problem. There's no inspection cover to remove to access the 4 bolts to separate the torque converter and flex plate/ flywheel. It's a solid 1 piece block plate. I've had suggestions from unbolting the trans from the bell housing to...
