Mike (somethingspecial) Thanks for the info on Jim Gentile, he seems to be a heck of a nice guy. He has about 15 different Ford dealer frames, but unfortuniately for me, not the two dealers I am searching for. Most of the dealers were from the San Francisco area S&C Ford, Tiffany Ford in...

Mike, Mansfield Mustang is the place to go. Small business...I have had good luck dealing with him. His parts can be a little $$$, but they are correct and good quality. His on-line catalog is a great reference too.

I guess the police have a suspect for that park bench that was stolen last winter.

I do not think the Ford tooling is available for the 67-68 dash pad. Just Dashes uses original tooling for the 65, 66, and some later dash pads, but not the 67-68 pad. I have a Just Dashes pad in my car and the pad seems stiffer and the grain more pronounced than the original dash. It is what...

Thanks for the tip, good luck with the rest of the car.

Paul, Is the Boss 302 Registry (#6) still available?

Sara, If the chrome trim is good enough to re-chrome I would do that...nothing fits like original Ford parts!! Do yourself a favor and research chrome plating shops. It seems like the Harley-Davidson folks always know of good shops (at least here on the East Coast). The quality of chrome work...

Paul, I think you should include the 66 and 67"s. I also think the other known "specials" for 68 should at least be mentioned in the book ie. the Cardinal Special for Virginia and North Carolina dealers, the Gold Nugget Special, Canadian Spring promotin(listed in Mustang by the Numbers, by...

By placing the Ford oval on the frame does it now have to be licensed through Ford? I know it's small numbers, but I would hate for someone to get stuck by Ford. Thanks Paul for the idea and Casey for taking the initiative.

I agree with Steve get an aluminum driveshaft made. You will be glad you did.

I talked to my uncle tonight who was a salesman back in the late sixties/ early seventies about dealer exchanges. He confirmed that dealers did exchange cars back then, but it was not as common as today. It is also in his opinion, that the exchange area was a much smaller area or network than...

This could be interesting.

Russ, Have you reached out to McCoy & Mills or have any dealer stuff from them? I have talked to one salesman who asked me to write them a letter and they would try to send me some stuff. I was busy finishing my car and haven't done it yet. My car was delivered in March and sold in May...

If you get up that way and can pick up a dealer license plate frame, sticker or anything else I would be willing to pay you for your troubles. Especially if it was vintage stuff. A picture of the dealership would be cool too.

One of my cars sold new at McCoy & Mills Ford in Fullerton, Ca. and my other car sold new at Lutz Ford in Palo Alto, Ca. Does anyone know anything about these dealers? Any other members car(s) sell through the same dealer?

The photos of the black CS with white stripes convinced me to put the white "C" stripe on my black fastback. The photography in the book is outstanding.

did you notice this set up is for the FE engine? I can't say I've seen many of these.

I see the car you are refering to. Personally, I am suspect of the car. The door data plate has non-original rivets attaching it to the door, and it looks as though the paint is very fresh. He could be hiding alot of problems under that fresh paint. If it were me, I would look at this one...

Thanks for the replies, the info was helpful.

It's also interesting that 1968 was the only year disc brakes were not standard with the GT package.
