Congrats Renee! Tim tell TJ that I am impressed first that he decided to take a risk and try something he had never done before. Second that he did his home work and was rewarded with a great looking paint job. Expearences like this one will no doubt make him a sucess in his life! Marty

We just got back home to night 1400 mi. and 24hrs one way in the saddle. I must say I got a bad case of Mustang butt. We had a great time at the show I got to see Danny,Tom and Russ. Also got in a little grandson time. I did not have much time to talk by the time I got our car clean,went to the...

A unbroken one is a rare find in deed. I had to buy a hole box of junk at a auction to get one. Marty

I talked with Pete Morgan the assisant nation head judge for the MCA today. He said he as see many orignals installed on the front. he said he would not deduct either way. Could have been aassembly plant differance or Ford changed it latter. Marty

I noticed our HCS has a rubber body plug covering the front frame mount for the leaf spring. Do most of your cars have this plug? Our other 68 Mustangs do not. I would like to know if this was a assembly plant difference on my other cars or they may have been lost. I would like to find some, I...

We put the 69 head rests on our sons 68. I used the entire 69 seat back, it mates to the 68 bottem and the 68 upholtering fits perfectly. Marty

Ford did not build there cars in a excact numerical sequence. There were three assembly plants and as the orders came in the VIN # was assigned to the plant where it would be built. Cars 01 and 02 were not necessarly built one after another. All we know for sure is the actual manfacture date on...

See what you started Neil. I had Falcon guy say you Mustang people are (!!!) over the top with these minuscule details and numbers. I asked him at a big Falcon meet how many cars might there be in your class, he said 3-4. At a large Mustang meet there may be 20 and most will have fantastic...

This is a picture of the MCA asst. national head judge Pete Morgan's 67 Marty

There is nothing in the written rule book on it witch leaves it to the most experanced judge on the team. As I said I am going to ask some others. Sometimes differnt assembly plants did things a little differntly and some times it was just were the line worker put it. Espeically small parts such...

Thanks Scott for your input. I am going to the VA Beach MCA National show next week and will talk to some other gold card judges about this. I know you have some very nice orginal cars but sometimes things get changed over 40 years. With all of them being in that position I think it is worth...
