Decided it was time to spruce up the GT/CS. Shop had a window or opportunity, and the EXP is on hold for various reasons... Stripping begin, about 5 hours of work and all badges and exterior trim hood locks rear panel and valence rear seat and rear interior panels trunk area bits vinyl top...

See a lot of posts about the horrors of vinyl roofs. if you are doing one, here is a tip based on the few I have done.... Clean, sand and primer the top before applying the vinyl roof. A clean and prepped surface is critical. Here are two rust spots that were on my '68 GT/CS. A second top...

Pulled the rear seat in prep for some paint work. Found fiberglass backed "tar paper", but die cut. Thought the original was jute backed. Anyone know for sure which was used, late April build car. Just curiosity as the old stuff is too far gone to save.

Doing a "nice, but not over the top" paint job on the 68 C code as its not worth a bare metal restoration. Nothing on the underside or inside other than jambs and scotch brite and respray the interior with charcoal grey metallic to clean up some scuffs and wear. Respray the inside of the...

Just stumbled across this on the web in a few places... has anyone used them? Do not look quite correct as they seem to have the dynamite sticks, and be more Shelby then GT/CS...

Anyone have a photos of how they mount and the direction the loop hangs. Do the bolts go from the inside out or the other way? Washer on bolt head, or nut? Putting them on the S convertible.

Bought an OEM tail panel and OEM buckets. No screws to put them together. They look to be an odd part, did not see them on AMK's site, anyone know a source for the correct ones?

Question about Basic Off Standard orders came up in another thread... so the magic of the webernet and some searching brought me right back here... http://www.californiaspecial.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2396&highlight=basic+off-standard+equipment

Was fairly original when I got it a few years ago. Original front springs were mush and put Bilsteins and new springs on it right after I bought it. That made a nice difference. Ordered the OE style heavy export brace and had it planned for this weekend. Last weekend stumbled on a 15/16" sway...

Everything GT/CS looks to be gone, but the tail cutouts and other telltales look reasonable... Not surprisingly, not in the on-line registry. But in the book...

As noted, looking for a good condition pair of OEM rear 1/4 extensions.

Another post mentioned Precision Exhuast, took a look on thier site. Been considering dual exhaust on the C code, swapping a 4 bbl 4100 and matching intake I have onto the engine when I pull it for clean-up and painting. The Precision site lists one dual exhaust system for 289, 302, 390, and...

Looking for an OEM fog light fuse/breaker that mounts to the "Z plate" under the fuse box. I am not in Cal, Australia, but the form insists on a location in the US.

Have all the bits. Were the brackets installed and the the entire assembly painted, or griile and brackets painted separately and then riveted leaving the rivets natural?

Not mine, just thought folks might be interested. As the for sale site wants info I don't have posting an FYI here... admin, please move it if required.... http://www.concoursmustang.com/forum/index.php?topic=5325.0

Know it was not done originally on coupes. Wondering if anyone has looked into it? I am doing an EXP500-ish car and have both CS/GT and functional Shelby scoops. I am unsure if a wide thin plenum could be worked behind the window "plate" with the channels, and a transition to the wheel well...

Looking at a one-off for a project. Doing up an EXP500 replica/clone/tribute/devils' spawn/bastard child (pick one)... I am considering an attempt to use Marchal brakets on the 68 Shelby front end to get the "floating" look of the early GT/CS Marchals (I like it sooooo much better than the...
