    Son, TJ visits...

    ...Just got off the phone with TJ who is on his way home. Mr. Leno had not heard of the steam technology TJ uses for his car detailing business. Very intrigued by it, he invited TJ to bring his equipment and demonstrate "on air" at his infamous "Jay Leno's Garage" website, which has half...

    Son, TJ visits...

    ...with Jay Leno in his garage today. This is his second trip. He texted to say they had a nice chat about '60s Mustangs :-)

    1968 Well, I just bought the "7 million in gold and 1 GT/CS" car

    ...Good one, but I'm already in enough trouble!... ;-)

    1968 Well, I just bought the "7 million in gold and 1 GT/CS" car

    ...With a good summary and great feeling about your progress, we eagerly await further updates when you get the car :-) But yes... things can get a little "stupid" in the meantime.... It's all good!

    1968 Green Hornet

    ...I think you, SAAC and Scott nailed it. Probably as also mentioned, an expected rush of sellers out to capitalize on Carroll's passing. I always thought "Green Hornet" had a Shelby VIN, but it nonetheless goes to show that buyers are wising up and not putting as much value on hype...

    ...Original owner car, color and in great shape with this history... You Stole it! Let the church say AMEN!! :-) Print and keep all related news stories as part of your documentation.

    1968 Well, I just bought the "7 million in gold and 1 GT/CS" car

    ...Understood and No worries! Most would tell you I over paid on all of my CSs, but I've more than made it up in "fun"! From the look of things, if you were under $17K, you did very well :-)

    1968 Well, I just bought the "7 million in gold and 1 GT/CS" car

    Congratulations! You're in for a great experience :-) The bug deflector seems a bit "damming" for the hoodscoop, however. You might have said elsewhere, but I'm curious what it sold for...

    1968 Green Hornet

    ...You're better off where you are now, far as I'm concerned. Today's vintage Shelbys are cool to look at, (all lined up at a SAAC event, or even cooler if you get to see one on the track), but what would you do with it rest of the time? ...20-30 years ago - hell yeah! buy one for $6-12K and...

    Anyone in Carson City, NV?

    ...Hey Nate, this may be the one you told me about three years ago! You said you saw an elder lady leaving a Carson City grocery store in a green CS with a black hood scoop! We were talking (and dreaming) at a time when the subject of the missing R-code was being discussed... Remember? Too...
