I have been watching their auctions on TV lately and these guys seem even more annoying than Craig Jackson and his crew. Is it just me? What is Mecum's reputation like? Maybe it is because I see them always bullying the seller into removing the reserve and don't see that at the no reserve...

Now that is funny!

I am in Europe this week, but can measure mine when I return. Mine takes 5 qts and registers full just above the fill line. david

I have heard lots of bad things about the Asian products (cheap, thin, bad chrome, don't fit, etc). I am sure some are better than others. Let us know what you think when it arrives. I also need new bumpers. One of the benefits of having your existing ones re-chromed is that you know they...

I am not a serious Ebay user, but I have been told that you have much greater protection if you make your payments via paypal and that your paypal account should be linked to your credit card, not your bank account. Again, I am not very experienced here, but understand that paypal works like an...

Who knows what the real story is, but I read that while in Ford's Employee and Auction Resale lot in Dearborn, the Independent Rear had been stolen and replaced with a standard Fairlane axle, and that the FI unit was missing and had been replaced with a police interceptor intake and 4 barrel...

Very cool...and great pictures! What's your next mod?

Paul, are you doing a section on Li'l Red. Wasn't it that car, not the Green Hornet, that got Lee Grey talking to Lee Iacocca about a Calif Special? Don't get me wrong, the Green Hornet was/is a very cool car and I love reading about it, but I would think that Li'l Red would be more relevant...

I'd want to see the Marti report, but $13K for a J code GT (w/ 9" diff) 4spd seems like a pretty good deal. And $13K is the asking price. It could sell for less.

Wow, that thing is going to scream. Rob, how do you paint the valve covers? Lots of tape? Can't wait to see pictures of the engine in the car and your impressions of how it runs. david

I thought Craig Jackson from Barrett Jackson owned the car. If I remember correctly, he was parading the car around last year with the thought of selling it at his auction.

Cars are in storage, went and visited them this morning. Forgot to check length, but took these pictures. Can't tell you for sure it is the correct C4 dip stick, but I have no reason to believe it is not. No part number, but it does have the ford motor co stamping up by the handle. Hope this...

Keep in mind that Auburn units are not repairable. david

Very nice Joe. Looks like the car is running well. I don't see dial in's on the time slips, are these just "test and tune" days? If they have a bracket racing season, I highly recommend it, lots of fun. I wish we were still racing here in Denver. david

I feel a need to post this link, especially after my previous posts. Seems I got a decent deal, but many, many others have been scamed. Please beware if you use this vendor. They are Indy based and appear to sell on ebay and swap meets using several different names. Easy to identify...

Here is a link to more info. My initial reaction - not very interesting from a historical perspective. Beautiful car and they do mention the GT/CS. It is a Green Hornet reproduction (minus EFI and independent rear suspension) that CS approved, sounds like in 2003. Surprised to see that it is...

Colorado collector car plates - $133 for a 5 year tag.

Looks like a nice car, but if the engine is "new, top to botton" what is up with the rusty looking harmonic balancer in the second to last picture?

Joe, great improvement over your first trip. Looks like you have the hang of it! You and David have some pretty fast GT/CS's. I must have missed it, what tires are you now running on the backs? My goal has been to get under 14 seconds here in Denver with my HCS. Blown engine and other fun...

It is great you are giving folks on the site an opportunity, but If there is no interest, try your local Craigslist. I recently sold a Ford Motorsport Intake and the same 600 CFM Edelbrock carb. Gone over a weekend. No shipping and cash in hand. Had this carb on my 302 before I pulled it...
