    From tactical to practical....

    ...Son of a gun, Renee! In looking at some more photos - that IS the key! ;-) Al & Marty - There are some Pintos here & there, but not too many with decent "rubber bands" (timing belt) I like Steve & Cory's option best, but the boy is being trained to use his own $$. I suspect one day he...

    From tactical to practical....

    ...So I'm working away on Thursday and I get a call from my son, TJ. "Dad - don't get me wrong - I love my Mustang & all we've done to it, but it's costing me $25 bucks a day just to go to school & my various jobs in gas! Also, we've made it too nice for the kind of driving I need to do every...

    1968 New GT/CS Matchbox?

    ...I hit four Walmarts (pre-dawn) in West Sacramento and Roseville, CA last Sunday after taking a relative to the airport with no luck on the GT/CSs... I did score some '70 Machs to go with my prototype, however :-) Otherwise, Ebay seems most reliable right now if you don't mind paying $5 to...

    1968 National Councel of Mustang Clubs

    ...Like Marty said. He was a city cop in a cop car. A gesture perhaps by the event in good faith. 'Not sure if it was a win/win or a lose/lose, but nonetheless, entertaining. 'Bunch of ego motorheads getting leveled by a 4-door, stock hubcapped, 318 with a driver who understood "inertia...

    1968 National Councel of Mustang Clubs

    ....I recall one rallye in Woodland, CA in particular. In addition to car show, promo booths, poker run and huge attendance - there was also a pylon obstacle course marked out in a large parking lot. We were timed based on how fast we completed, which also included backing in & out of...

    . Fab Fords Forever - Sun April 10, 2011 - Anyone going?

    Amy, Fab Fords always falls within a week of the big downtown show we have in Grass Valley. It would be at least 8-9 hours to get get to Knott's from here. Besides, I already gave Donna all of my extra PS hoses, spark plug cables and fire extinguishers, so at this stage, I'm ill prepared ;-))

    Scared $%#&less

    Congratulations Renee! Another Altima... I wonder if Nissan knows that it's become the official chase car (type) for hunter/killer missions on unsuspecting NorCal GT/CS owners! Maybe we should design some advertising for them ;-)
