Welcome Danille, And congratulations on your new HCS. We purchased our 68 HCS in April of this year. Did you just buy your car on ebay? If you did I was watching and it looked like a good project. I think you will find the people on this site very helpful and fun. Marty MCA 38812

Does any know if it is possible to remove the pop off gas cap assembly with out removing the fiberglass tail light panel? Help Marty

Mike that's one sweet ride. Did you build it your self? Marty

Both plaid and splatter are correct on GT-CS and HCS. As said above the correct material was burtex. The plaid mats should have stitched corners. I think the plaid were more commonly used. Other models used only the splatter Marty MCA 38812

That look very much like the one I described in my thread above. They do not use rivets they wedge between the gutter and roor on top of the vinyl. They should run the entire length. The one in the picture may be broken as they are very fragile. Marty

Neil, Ford also used a special stainless retainer on top of the top material in the roof gutter. It used no rivets and was very attractive. I have some photos some where that I used when we changed the MCA rules on this. I'll edit this if I can find them. Marty

I think a ticket to the next family vist would be great motivation as a prize. I don't how to pick the most worthy, but a compleated list in a unheated garage would have to be right up there. Marty

Do you have the Vinyl top trims? If you do not I think I have them. Marty

They look good on the car. What engine will it have? Marty

Neil, Did your oringinally come with a vinyl roof? I like the black accent with the yellow. We did a 67 springtime yellow car with a black roof I really liked it. Marty

I went to the MCA judges meeting last month and it sounds like the concours trailered class rules will be changed to not allow metalic paints. If it was plated orignally it must be plated if it was bare steel it must be unpainted. It seems that too many gold awards are now being given, so the...

No worries the shop is heated! Rob I don't think that 427 bad boy will fit in your carry on. I would keep my eye on you I might just learn something. Neil when the tickets come look for a first class one, I am sure you deserve it. Jeff I would love to have you come, but I would hate to be your...

Man is that ugly,and pricely for a reject. I would have to get the model paint out. Marty

Rob, I am Looking for a jack for our HCS. PM me the details. Marty

Neil, Vinyl tops are not that hard to do but you really do need another person. Also the old carpenters rule applies measure twice and cut once! Good luck with your project. Marty

The all shiny chrome rings were 69's I have never found any identifying marks, I am not sure but I think the NOS set I bought in 94 may have had paper tags that went away the first time they got wet. Marty

Amy, We have all ready started planning the trip. I just can't wait. I am all ways excited about national shows. But what is really great about this one is I will get to meet many of you. I did want to say there are classes for every mustang in the MCA, your car does not need to be a concours...

Tim, Isn't that a show room sales brochure? I would like to see one for the GT-CS. Marty
