Nice!! And Foose is a nice guy. 'Met him down here at Autorama three years ago. Very accommodating :-) Boy, couldn't have picked a better showgirl to pose w/ Jbart's CS!..

...Very neat Cory! It's so cool to occasionally encounter history "untouched" in a way not tampered with. Back when I was exploring old railroad camps in the Sierras, we found numerous old Model A's and a '50's Cadillac (w/ straight-8) permanently affixed by large trees. 'Makes you want to...

Gary, You and Arlie.... Awesome! 'Love the nostalgia that comes with this hobby!!

...Yes, and along with what Neil says - make sure it's a true S-code and value it accordingly vs an over rated car with a famous name...

...Confused... There is no (official) 1967 or '68 "Bullet" Mustang. I'm assuming it's a 390 fastback, 4-spd that a seller is calling "Bullet". Look it over carefully and question everything including 33K miles. Take photos and discuss it with your friends B4UBuy...

Hey Marty! I just spoke to TJ who said he'd paint your car for only $10K !!! ;-) Yes, the $800 was for paint & materials, but we did a solid week of priming, sanding and only minor dent repair w/ no rust. We both learned a lot and it came out great as a high school "driver", but as far as...

...'Heartfelt "Thanks Again" Cory! We've all but worn out my small book at shows and the big one sits prominent for people who come by the house. You did the GT/CS community very proud!!

...Seller's remorse is also remedied by finding a good & appreciative home. 'Sounds like she's got a good set of "guardian angels" t'boot! Congratulations Neil!!

...Price is higher than I ever would go when you consider the cost for a good glass guy to do the repairs...

...Scott, that is TOO funny! 'Gives all new meaning to "barn find" ;-)

...It's not so much the heat back there, but chaffing. I once lost all brakes on a '66 from the exaust pipe rubbing on the brake line...

...Well, you just prompted me to Google it and there seems to be a lot of reading that supports "risk". At this point, I would personally avoid using it... http://www.fuel-testers.com/ethanol_fuel_disadvantages.html

...Thanks for that :-) I stumbled on that site a few years ago and was intrigued. Now I'll have three S's to add... I also agree that Doug's 'S' would be the premier "catch" for anyone looking based on its excellent and known quality :-)

...If so, we can throw a "smarty Marty Marti party"! ;-)

.... on E-bay for just $2,000.00! There's a phone number you can call if you have questions. My guess is that it'll be pretty busy!! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ford-Mustang-Fastback-1968-Ford-Mustang-Fastback-/390248454807?pt=US_Cars_Trucks&hash=item5adc9eda97

...Very helpful as always Arlie. Thanks!

...A big Ditto here too. At imes like this, it's fun to reflect on Jon's humble dedication and the enormous results ie: information, cars acquired & restored, friendships, events and etc......... For years! And yet he seems so unaware. With every successful car show and all accumulated...

...This was an issue I dealt with recently. 390s apparently have four different sizes depending on year produced. My recent rebuild had rods that were too short & thus noisy... There are quite a few knowledgeable forums (ie: T-Bird & Ford trucks) that discuss this at length. Example...

'Wonderful surprise Marty! 'Not sure what I would do either, but making another beautiful "driver" for the world to see comes to mind. Best of luck with what ever you decide to do :-)

...'Still holds the closed course record at 528.33 mph Marty.
