And a few pics of the hood scoops Is this a Mach 1 scoop?

Close-up of ram air set-up Lets try this....

Yeah, I can't figure out why the pic won't enlarge. Will post more when I figure that out. Its actually a 302 that they put a ram air system on it when new. I'm not familiar with the various Ram air systems but this one is a little funky in my view. I believe the hood scoop is ford product...

Its looking very nice. Congrats! Thats one job that I don't think I want to tackle. Steve

Making progress with engine compartment cleanup

Sorry Marty....need non-tinted.

Thanks to you Ruppstang and Northern for the great assistance. This place is great! I'm new to these cars and not familiar with date codes and how they should relate to build dates. My car's build date is 5/14. Let me know if if you have anything that might work. Steve

AH....thanks Marty. I had not thought about date codes which make the search even more challenging. I really prefer to use original parts but I'll check out PS Auto Glass as I was not aware of this option. Thanks much!!

Continue to work on cleaning up the GT/CS. The drivers side door glass has a few fairly deep scratches which I'm sure are a result of the original and pretty much non-existant door trim felts. Can really good condition original carlite glass be found? I've seen a few on Ebay. They are...

IT's official - in the Registry Just completed the registration for our GT/CS. It's in my wife Sara's name because its now her car. She loves it and has taken it out several times in the few days we have had it. She's a car nut also. Will send a pic of her and her new GT/CS as soon as I...

Edward....looks nice! Can I ask how you did the attachment? I'm new to posting photos. Thanks.

Thanks, I placed an order for a Covercraft cover today. One of their woven indoor covers. Other than the 3 week timing, I think I'll be pleased. Thanks to all of you for the input. Steve

Tried to do a search but no success. Any recommendations on a good car cover and where to purchase? Just need a good quality dust cover (cotton?) as the car is inside. Thanks

Thanks, I will. Will take post a few pics in the next couple of days. Now is when I start revealing how little I know about these cars!! I have a j-code. Can someone tell me what intake manifold and carb came stock on i?. I've got an Edelbrock manifold and a Holley 4B carb. Guessing these...

GT/CS delivered today Took delivery this evening. Only had an hour before dark so really have not had the chance to look it over much yet. Runs great so far though. Drove it about 10 miles. Initial impression...the car is much more "worn" than I expected. However, its a 45 year old car and...

Thanks for the additional info. I'll check those tires out also. Have to say that I was disappointed with Reliable. I just called them and spoke with a Ralph who just had a poor attitude. I wanted to ask about trying to schedule delivery within a certain window (week) if possible and he...

Thanks for the info. Any others with thoughts on tires? The TA's seem like a reasonable choice. I may just go with them. Steve

Scheduled shipping and Exhaust question Scheduling shipping today. Decided to go with Reliable since they gave me a reasonable quote and have a good reputation. Will be scheduled for around the 15th of March since we we will be on vacation the first two weeks. Paul is doing much basic...

Thanks for thee info on the protectant and also the suggestion on the repop weatherstrip. Glad to spend a bit less money! Looks like I'll be scheduling shipper next week to get the car down to Atlanta the 3rd week of March. Looking forward to finally seeing it can getting my hands on it. Steve

Well, not much to update on since my last post. The car still is in Illinois while my mechanic friend Paul is off on a snowmobile trip. Can't hold that against him...he deserves it. I hope to get him focused again next week to get the basic work done so we can get the car shipped down to...
