<~~~~~~~~~~~Has a large truck...will haul cash for free lunch. I just love an excuse for a road trip! ~~~~Donna :grin:

Hey! Give me a holler!!

That sounds a lot like the one I spotted at a popular hamburger place on I-15 between Temecula and Escondido, Ca. My eyes popped out when I saw it coming down the highway and into the parking lot. I went over and looked at the absolute worst CS I had ever seen. It had A/C and great looking...

Yes, Gary I noticed that too...and the steering wheel, and the CS script on the top of the seat backs and the incorrect seat covers, and the 10 spoke Shelby wheels...anyhow...I saw the description in the BJ catalog as being completely restored. To me that means 'original'. But I was STOKED...

Hmmmmm, well Mike I don't know if this helps or not but my car seats were the prototype for the 68 skins made by Distinctive Industries . They saw my car at Knott's Berry Farm and wanted to use my skins for a pattern. I told them they could have them if you couldn't tell the difference between...

Oh I am Ivy Green with envy! :rofl: That is just the coolest thing!

Bob beat me to it, lol...back in 1974 my CS was hit broadside (by a 68 Ford truck) and the right door had to be replaced. Before I knew it the body shop put a 67 door on and I noticed right away that the vent window handle was 'backwards'. I had a fit but couldn't get them to change it out. To...

I agree with Sara..I noticed that the seat inserts and door panels were the wrong color on the Barrett-Jackson CS. Also the steering wheel is not correct. Arlie's picture is correct. I still have my original dash pad and it is very dark green. It is far darker than my door panels. The carpet...

Best Wishes to Daddy Jon and Grampa Steve! ~~~Donna

Cool....thank you Jason, Don and Arlie for the info on the auction day for the CS. I've been watching the Speed channel for several weeks now showing auctions from 2005 and I am getting all pumped up. Can't wait for the 2006 show to start! ~~~~Donna

How exciting! :icon_ecst

How do we know exactly when the CS will cross the block? I have the Barrett-Jackson booklet listing all the cars and the CS is Lot #419, but do they do it in numerical order or what? Or do I have to watch hours and days of the auction and hope I catch the CS? :confused: ~~~~Donna

Wow....that VIN is very close to mine. Their last four digits are 812 and mine is 857.

Dang it, I wasn't far from there either!

Jeeeeez you're making me dream of the time many years ago when I towed a 36 Auburn boattail speedster to the Barrett-Jackson show , and we also had a Shelby and an MG.......the show was so small back then. Enjoy your time there! Jon is right on about the 6 hours driving time. ~~~~Donna

I'm like you Jon, I did a whole lot of the work myself, except to shoot the paint. ( I did do a lot of sanding though) I worked for a company that had a fleet account with a Ford dealer and every paycheck I was there using my discount and buying some new part. This was way before all the...

Arlie, The picture you show looks exactly like the interior of my CS. Back a few years ago at Knott's Berry Farm, I had two executives from Distinctive Industries checking out my car and they wanted to know if my seat skins were original. They wanted to use them as a pattern for their...

Hmmm..I can't see the spoiler on the trunk, and I'd want to make sure it has the correct tail lights. Years ago I remember that Paul had told us about two models that you could blend together to make a CS. ~~~~Donna

The red car with black stripes is the same one that is featured in my collector trading cards. ~~~~Donna

Ooooh yes Jon I like the idea of denim shirts even better.And embroidery always beats silk screened. They may cost more but they look classier and last longer. ~~~~Donna
