    Summer Gas Prices Could Reach $4

    ...Yes; and I also remember my mother pulling into the gas stations in our '63 Olds Dynamic 88 station wagon saying; "Fill 'er with Ethyl" ;-) When I was working in service stations during high school, it seemed the senior citizens called it "High-test" and the rest; Supreme. But gone are the...

    What is a '68 GT/CS Worth?

    ...Well said John. It all boils down to (our) intent and (being at the) right place at the right time. And regardless of the conditions imposed on our opinions here; the personal value that comes with ownership plays a major role in how those prices are set and how much we will ultimately pay...

    What is a '68 GT/CS Worth?

    ...Seems to me that although there are guidelines; the actual "worth" is governed as much by owner intent and "right place at the right time. I have paid on the high end for some and had super deals on others, but their true "worth" has always matched my intent... *To drive and enjoy while...

    Modding plans put to a screeching halt.

    ...Casey, my oldest son was married in June of last year. At the time, he had a gray primered '69 coupe that was still undergoing restoration. When the subject came up on spending money and its use as a limo; his beautiful bride offered the following response... ;-)

    GT/CS T-shirts

    Yes Paul, I believe you are 100% correct. Nonetheless, they are a professional source who is positioned to answer the bulk of the requests with a much larger product line already in place. I am actually relieved that a nice alternative for the 07/09s now exists to fill the original void in a...

    ...Looks like another new member has answered the t-shirt requests of late-model owners. They look excellent, so I see no need to duplicate their efforts. http://californiaspecial.com/forums/showthread.php?p=53033#post53033 :-)

    GT/CS T-shirts

    Thanks Steve:-) I knew the starter was on its way out on this one. It had been groaning for quite some time before it finally shorted and took the cables and solenoid with it. I only wish I was "ready" when it decided to "take my picture" ;-) A quick trip to the auto parts store & I was back...

    GT/CS T-shirts

    Thanks Gary, believe it or not; I already have the recipe to do your car sans the yellow-lens Marchals, so that would be easy. First things first however... The new car images are the focus for now, followed by all visible options and colors. The ordering site will then be updated as the...

    ZDDP is it in your oil ?

    ...I'm very sorry to hear of that, Don :-( I have switched everything to Mobil 1 20/50 Synthetic (as acquired) over the last 3 years, but I haven't put enough miles on any one vehicle to notice any detriment. I too have one (302) that has always smoked from the left bank, but only when...
