    Color Importance?

    This question falls under, "should I keep my CS original or change it" which is a most common question on this site. Summary is that it is a very debated topic, and most of the time ends with "it's your CS, enjoy it". But, being the owner of a Sunlit Gold CS, I could not imagine any other...

    Got My 2007 GT/CS at last!

    It is at Volo Museum, in Volo (just a bit west of McHenry). Free pass to the muscle car, antique car, military museums. Very nice and very fun show. (no free food though. They do have food and restraunt on site) Here is the link. Casey http://www.volocars.com/

    Cobra Update

    A beauty! Would you build one for me? I have seen one with a Viper V10 and it barely can stay on the pavement - if it had wings I think it would have enough power to lift off. Is your son helping with this one? Casey

    Ford GT or Califronia Special?

    1. Paul, you got me on the spelling error. I type too fast sometimes. 2. I think the guy really appreciated the CS. The only reason he invited me to his driveway was that we were blocking traffic. So, his interest was genuine. Plus, he knew a lot about the CS - shelby scoops, shelby...

    Ford GT or Califronia Special?

    Well, Chicago is beautiful this time of year, so I took my CS out for a spin around town. In my neighborhood I am stopped by a screaming yellow Ford GT. The gentleman stopped to tell me how much he admired my car. I was standing there almost drooling on his GT, and he is talking about how he...

    Got My 2007 GT/CS at last!

    I am in Crystal Lake and work in Schaumburg. Very close. I am headed down to the MCA National in Springfield in June, and the Indy show in July. I dont usually do cruise nights because there are too many teenagers just hanging out, and dont care about the cars. I could try the Barrington...

    what happen to?

    An argument has been successfully made that information seen in the public domain can be used. A picture of a house from the street can be used (or a car in the parking lot) because it was put into the public domain. It gets tricky when the public domain data is compiled from the same source...

    Rare GTCS found on Ebay with Marti Report

    The speedo thing is wierd. I ONLY have yellow from 70mph up, and NO red. The speedo is original, and no fading on the dial (I looked at it hard under good light - but I could have missed it). As for 1 of 1 - I have almost taken that part off my Marti report because it is so embarrasing...

    what happen to?

    All good questions. Somebody out there makes a profit (or at least revenue) off something that they copyright. If someone else copies it, then they loose profit. The person who has been damaged (lets say FORD in this case) could require the person to cease using the material, or in this case...

    what happen to?

    Copyright law on the internet is still debated. Using copyrighted data is serious business though. The issue can be made clear contractually - such as being given premission by Kevin to use the data in a certain way (like Paul's book, or the web site). However, I suspect that even Kevin is...

    Smokin'

    Arlie, I will let you know soon. The weather is finally good here, but I have been driving the 66 vert. I need to get the CS out and drive it a while like Robert suggested. Hopefully in next few weeks I will know. If it bugs me too much after that, then I will probably just have the engine...

    hot starter problem..

    I had the same problem (except with a 351W) and have a thread on it on the general forum. I tried other stock starters too. Bottom line: I went with a "mini" starter from JEGS (easily found on eBay) which gets the starter 3 inches away from the header pipe (stock starter was 1/4" before), and...

    Some Things We Might Want to Consider on Our Site

    I was at the Mach 1 registry site. It is very similar to ours, but has some very nice front end features like items for sale, old and new Mach 1 views on front page, Pictures of Mach 1 and history, Mach 1 magazine reference, and of course Forums. The users are quite family oriented as we are...

    Fabulous Fords Forever 2007 Pictures

    The line-up picture is awesome! I envy you guys in CA. I think people are really starting to take notice and heavy interest in our unique cars. I think they were in the shadows for a long time and are now coming out to visibility and people are really interested. Great job, and beautiful...

    Questions on 66 convertible

    I have a 66 convertible and it looks almost like a twin to this one. A couple of things: Seats are recovered. Carpet is replaced. Dashpad is new. Woodgrain is for deluxe interior, but the door panels are not deluxe - decoder says standard interior, so they are add ons. Also, deluxe...

    Headers Heat

    OK - last weekend I installed the mini-starter and went ahead and put the blanket around it. I noticed my old starter was about 1/4 inch from the header, so you know it had to be getting hot. WOW! the mini starter makes a big difference! (other than sounding like a rice burner starter). I...
