    Fun weekend in Grass Valley...

    ...as temperatures in the high 90s did little to deter some 850+ cars from attending the annual Roamin' Angels "cruising in the pines" car show. Everything from the 1920s to '72 came from everywhere to enjoy a Friday nite BBQ, three days of display at the fairgrounds and a cruise to historic...

    How do you fill your tank without spills?--'68

    ...Granted, they're a little more sensitive, but with all the Stangs I've had I can't say it's been a problem either. I've always filled by hand and never relied on the automatic shut off. I also release or remove the cap BEFORE having the nozzle in the other hand, so the cap doesn't slam onto...

    68 Convertible Advice

    Welcome snoopcat! Since you love the look of the Shelby convertible and want to drive and enjoy it without the huge financial risk of a real one - I say build a '68 convertible precisely the way you want. Personally, I would stop short of putting the GT/CS scripts and stripes on it (to avoid...

    2009 Gt/CS. what Ford Should of done.

    ...Skip, I'm not up on the new models (tho think I am after reading your post:-) but wanted to say I enjoyed the way you explained all the high points. I wish more dealers were as "on it" as you. We went to look recently and they had no clue...

    Big Trouble!...

    ...It's not too bad as long as you do a "rolling start" beginning at about 110mph. Most important; if you get ahead of him - try to stay ahead him! There's no clutch fan on his prop, so that would hurt! And if you run out of runway in the process - keep your foot to the floor and pull back...

    Big Trouble!...

    ...There you go aGA'ain... ;-) Okay, we're on. But we'll have to be quiet about it. Some folks around here frown on racing in & out of traffic!

    Saying of the Week, and other Famous Quotes

    ...Those remarkable birds were based 20 miles from our house. They would ocassionally perform static engine tests on the ground that sounded as though they were 1-mile away. We always knew when one was going up whenever two KC-135s would launch. 20 minutes later; the intense bright white/...

    New GT/CS

    Thank you GTCS07. ...My favorite encounters are like the one at Sizzler the other night. My wife, son & I were getting in the car when we were approached by an elderly couple with the woman "lit up like an x-mas tree" ;-) She asked what year my car was, then went on & on about the '65 her dad...

    David, I hope you do go on Monday. Please let us know how it goes if so :-) TJ is pushing to have his road ready by next Saturday to enter into the "project" catagory of a local car show. I'm not too sure w/ work constraints etc.. but will be happy if it's right the first time. As far as...

    New GT/CS

    ...What a great day Paul! It's not at all surprising that many admired your '68 over the pack due to its uniqueness, not to mention Zach's showmanship :-) I also know the thrill, performance, handling, excitement and potential the new cars have over our '68s, but I'm going to keep my place...

    The Great Aemoo28 GT/CS Adventure!!

    Yes, and I admit I was one of those who recommended this seller based on my experience with him (and the car) which culminated in an excellent transaction and flawless 475-mile 1- day drive. In "Divine Order" ways Amy, I believe your experience was far better! You have also received an...
