    Rust Colored Plugs Valves Pistons

    ...Why did you pull it down? If it has been running - what symptoms made you pull the heads? I'm working on a bizzare performance issue w/ a 390 where the heads are off and being inspected... Long set of circumstances that I will report on after we find the solution, but I'm curious about...

    "X" 390 GT/CS for sale (black on black)

    Yep! Take it from Don!! While I can't say to what degree he knows his way around Big Blocks ...I can say; when he's driving one - everyone knows HE's around! ;-)

    Anyone prefers the wheelcovers over the styled wheels?

    ...Classicsguy, you are forever asking for opinions and getting what everyone else wants. How'bout you just do it your way and surprise us with the results? Believe it or not - you're nobody's robot. It boils down to choices between many factory options to suit a wide range of tastes and many...

    "X" 390 GT/CS for sale (black on black)

    ...I commuted my S-code (auto) all last week. The "4-speed" S only comes out for special events. How I would love to add an X, but that would be too XS'ive. So I hope she gets a good home w/ one of you soon :-) P.S. oh yes - the sound! :-)

    ...Indeed Tony, I was thinking the same thing, but it's a slow go for selling right now ;-O

    "X" 390 GT/CS for sale (black on black)

    ...I so agree Jason! Believe me I'm tempted, but I have no room for her. Plus; aside from what David acknowledges, most people here already have CSs and perhaps like Paul Stevenson and others - need to be creative about marketing to other Mustangers. (IMO)

    Anyone prefers the wheelcovers over the styled wheels?

    ...Or 'how'bout Magnum 500s? Now that you know what everyone else likes (or thinks), just do what You like :-) Going "full Marti" doesn't guarantee full happiness...

    another gt/cs

    My car was built on July 18th S171560 or 557 cars before this one. Any idea as to how many cars did they build in a day? Doug, I'd say a heck of alot if your data is true. I have 8R01S169368 also built on July 18. That's a difference of 2,192... Could that be right?

    GT/CS for sale ORIGINAL PAINT FULLY LOADED with MARTI REPORT

    ...That seems an unfortunate fact of life, but thanks to people like you and the awareness from this site, there will be many more GT/CSs around than there would've been. :-)

    California special vs High country special

    ...That was very well stated. I would like to add that when I'm driving a California Special - the car is immediately recognized (due to the script and scoop lettering) and likewise appreciated. When driving the HCS - there is an element of curiosity that compels people to move in for a...

    Should I charge $$ to join the GT/CS Registry?

    ...Yes. I'd like to know where you're going with this too. Seems like your book should be called "The Paul Newitt Recognition Guide" written with information provided by GT/CS enthusiasts and californiaspecial.com. When it gets down to shared knowledge, fellowship and brilliant (no cost to...

    Shelby and GT/CS

    ...Others here will go into much greater detail Christian, but the GT/CS is not a Shelby, nor should it be regarded as one. GT/CS (and HCS) is only an option package randomly produced alongside standard '68 coupes with all the same (other) available options. Shelby's as you know are far more...
