    Heard a interesting story about a 428 CS last night

    While we wait for Kevin to get us the data we are requesting, I happened to be poking through his book, "Mustang by the Numbers" and noticed that of ALL 68 coupes there were only 221 with 428CJs, which will make the number of CS and HCS pretty low (CS even lower since 428 came out later in the...

    last page of Mustang Monthly has a 390 automatic CS

    Still working on it with Kevin. We are still working out legal issues on this amount of data. As mentioned, I am limited to moving at his pace which is slower than I know the rest of us want. But, he is willing to provide the data. Casey

    GT/CS on eBay

    The VIN Decoder puts the 15J as Sept 15, 1967. That doesnt make sense. If I remember from Paul's book, the California Special script was barely ready for production cars beginning sometime in Dec/Jan (ie, the script wasnt even on the cars shown at the hotel in LA or San Fran). Maybe I got the...

    GT/CS on eBay

    David, Paul talks about this in his book. Sometime around mid-Feb the rear reflectors changed from flush color coded, to the chrome style. I believe this had to do with parts change overs due to the 67 union strike. My CS is a Feb 23 built car, and has the chrome rear reflectors. Casey

    What Dealership Sold Your Car

    This is a good thread, and something I have been working on for some time for my CS. My CS was bought at Pasadena Motors (Arroya Blvd). As best as I can tell, it is gone now. There is nothing at the address anymore. The google search turned up litigation cases against them in the 80's. I...

    2006 Calendar - Winners selected

    Re:VOTE NOW - 2006 Calendar David, your car is sweet. I appreciate what you have done to it. Not every car is concourse or set in front of a beautiful mountain or lake. And what you have done is also in good taste, keeping the car a good looking CS. Like Paul said, take a picture of...

    Silver Plated Audi A8

    The shieks in the middle east have so much money to do the craziest things. We have had them demand solid GOLD cell phones. Also one installed his own private cellular system (no Verizon or Cingular - his OWN entire system). I hope the car is clear coated or it would get pretty ugly when it...

    Windshield pillar pads

    Paul speaks to this in his books. The strike was late 67 which made parts scarce in 68 due to cost controls (link below). The timing for pads on or off was right around Feb, and the way Paul explains it, they put them on till the ran out. Similar time frame to the rear reflector lights too...

    cruise

    My wife and I are leaving sunday for a 7 day Alaska cruise for our 20th anniversary. Anyone done this before and have any suggestions? We are not wilderness fly fishing types like Hook - we are more 'love boat' types. Casey

    GT/CS Garage

    Jason, I lived in Texas for 4 years and understand why you need a cooled garage there! Here it is the opposite, need a heated garage - so I added a gas heater. The way my wife agreed to it was that I added living space above the garage (more square footage to the house). We ripped the...

    GT/CS Garage

    Finally finished my summer project and got the garage addition done. Not can easily fit 5 cars in heated garage (6 if another one comes along). This kept the cars under covers for the summer - hated to miss shows, but needed the space bad, especially for winter. Casey
