Thats a good idea, depending on the weather. It's supposed to to snow tonight and the next couple of days. If I can't drive it, I'll give them a call. Thanks for input. Bret

I did a search and couldn't find what I was looking for in any other posts, so here's the questions. How do you tell the difference between a c4 and an fmx trans? The drive train in my car was swapped out years ago due to it originally having a 6 cyl. and changed over to a v8. With alot of...

Way to go Jason, Keep up the good work. From the pictures I've seen, you've earned it. With alot more work, mine will get there some day. Bret

Keep us informed. It looks great. Bret

Nice looking cars. I'd check out the vin #'s before I shelled out the cash especially on the white one for $17,000. It looks like it has some aftermarket parts like the rear quarter end caps (they don't fit right), the California Special script doen't look like it's in the right location, Black...

I grew up in a rural area of So. Oregon and all we had was 1 channel if the weather was just right. So, we spent alot of time outdoors hunting, fishing, biking. It was alot better than sitting in front of the tube or computer. Guess I shouldn't knock computers. It's not like I sit here all day...

According to the April 05 Mustang Monthly the Blue Bonnet Special was only offered in 1967 and had a DSO of 61 followed by the digits 5160. The color code is left blank. Hope this helps. Bret

In the gallery on page 8, Bill Norman has a dealer installed hood tach and he is the original owner. If you wanted more info you might talk to him. Just thought I'd throw this out to mull over. Bret

Very nice looking car,but, way to busy for me. I like the color combo w/o the C strip. My .02 worth. Bret

There's a guy here in Wa. , Graham, I believe that has a "dealer installed hood tach". I think he is the original owner. He has photos in the gallery. I think they were a dealer option. I have one on my car that I found at the swapmeet here. I haven't decided if I'm going to paint it or leave...

Sounds like I'm going to have to go and check out the Hooters here in WA. and see if the headlights are on high or low beam and aimed correctly. You know it's not safe to drive with your headlights aimed the wrong direction. Also, you should only use the highbeams at certain times while...

I don't have the problem of dim taillights, they're real bright, but the turn signals barely flicker with the lights on. they work fine with the headlights off. Just thought I'd check before I headed out to work at 4:30 this morning and wow, hardly any signals. You mentioned that the ground...

If either of you are interested, there's one on Ebay. Vent, knob, cable. The # is 7995306275. Bret

I wondered what happened to that project. I was following it reigiously to the 9th and last articale. So, I take it your doing away with the flames and flares. Keep us posted on the progress. Bret

Hi Steve, I think the the one in the spring is the better one to go to. Most of the mustang parts are dealers who think every part they have is rare. Sometimes you have to look hard and dig deep. Last year I just missed out on a 4bbl intake for $30. The year before I found a Ford hood tach...

I bought mine sight unseen also. For the price we agreed upon, I didn't care how much work it needed. But, I wanted one to restore myself, so I could do most of the work. I was really surprised to find out it wasn;t a rust bucket like the one I looked at that was missing the battery tray, tops...

ABOLUTLY AWESOME, thats all I can say. Mine will look like that someday. Bret

Better off just parting it out. Definitly not an easy project. Even a complete car isn't an easy restoration. Just my .02 worth.

Well, I checked the timing and its right where it should be. The water in the rad is hot. I went the cheap route first and put in a new thermostat and it cooled down considerably, only gets just above the halfway mark on the gauge. I'll drive it awhile and see how it goes. Thanks for all the...
