    Where to put it - the registry decal

    OK - I thought I would have some fun and ask others where they put their registry decal. I put mine in the back window lower corner passenger side, but because it is a transparent decal it is hard to see, so I am contemplating moving it somewhere else - but where? I already have a SAAC sticker...

    Modding plans put to a screeching halt.

    My oldest son gets married in August. He wants to drive away with his bride in the GT/CS after the ceremony. I am hoping to get some really good pictures for the calendar this year! So, I think I need to SPEND money on the GT/CS for a marriage - wouldn't you agree:grin: (too bad my wife...

    What is a '68 GT/CS Worth?

    Almost certainly yes. There are those out there who want a T code (I wouldnt mind having one), but they can find those easily enough. Adding the bigger engine gives it a higher price for most people. Casey

    What is our place in the Mustang World?

    I think the vintage GT/CS get a lot of new recognition outside the west coast now that the new GT/CS are out. People have now heard of the new ones, and when they see a vinatage one and find out the GT/CS has history, they get interested real fast. Also, I think the new GT/CS get into the...

    Great Mustang Times article

    I finally got mine this week and could read what we wrote :smile: . I notice they missed a few edits, but overall we are pleased. Something for your detail freaks out there. Notice that the engineering release for the Califorinia Mustang is E.R.1706. It shows up on all the blueprints. Sorta...

    ADMIN - Site redesign - Go w/ a light or dark color scheme?

    I vote not to change the look of the site. It is unique. All the other sites look the same to me. This one has personality. Or maybe I have just gotten used to always coming home to "my friendly neighborhood site". Casey

    Power Steering Pump Color?

    Mine was more like the color of the one in the bottom left hand corner. When I repainted it, the color was a bit lighter. I mostly considered that it was because the other paint had aged (it was crackled and of course subject to plenty of dirt and heat). Yours does look light, but I have...

    Snakebite - SAAC - GT/CS Registry

    I noticed in the latest Snakebite newsletter that an original unsold copy of the 1989 GT/CS book signed by Paul is for sale to assist the SAAC litigation fund. I think the price was $200. It may already have sold. Casey
