...Really look at the front suspension, steering and shock towers as well. I wore mine (on the yellow 351) completely out and had to have the shock towers welded some years ago. Alignment, sloppy response and "clunking" while driving will be your clue...

...Yeager, Anderson (and Carroll Shelby) did it, without knowing or caring much about it (fame) at the time. They just got caught in the act of doing what they do by an admiring public :-) Hmm... 'Never did a sketch of a lady-driven big rig... 'Wonder if I can now add DD to my wall of fame ;-)

...Pretty neat Tony, 'looks to have great potential. Not original engine,(comes with it, but is it rebuildable) lots of "fix its" ... I'm curious what he's $$ asking, then after personal inspection; I would apply the NADA guidelines and research e-bay, craigslist et-al to see what they're...

There are several ways of looking at it. If your girlfriend is going to become your wife...then kids, then....?? $$$ As for the 69 Mach, the trouble spots to look for are the same ones discussed at length here for the '68s; rust, condition/ compression of engine, clutch and trans, interior...

...That's what I meant Rich, I wasn't sure if the X-code was a GT (by default) as the S and R codes are...

...Funny, but whenever I announce airshows or run the steam loco at historic events, I would get the same thing. People would bring up t-shirts I designed or programs w/ artwork and ask for my autograph. My stock answer was along the same lines DD..." uh, that and a buck.39 might get you a cup...

...Were the X-code 390 cars "automatic" GTs?

...Pure speculation depending on what level (project, good driver, near concours, etc...) you are looking to buy and what level of care or mods you plan to do... 'Lots of variables there. A 351 4-spd would be alot of fun! But look it over closely as many were ridden hard over the years. Best...

...I'm with you too Don. I'll spare everyone here my usual political tangent on how this came to be, other than to say I am eternally grateful to "Americans" like you who defend our founding principles. My heart also goes out to veterans who return home from foreign service to see precisely...

...I think Paul's attempting to enhance "californiaspecial.com" as a more central HQ for all CS owners as opposed to dividing this site. If I'm reading this right - a central section here geared for 07/09 owners to speak amongst themselves more efficiently w/o the mix w/ 68s, yet with all...

JBART, I don't think you're out of line at all. It would also disturb me to think they would put the "scabbed" piece on another new CS! Personally, I would take your case to a higher level (Ford?) rather than the sign at car shows where other CS owners may feel de-valued... IMO

Glad to hear you're doing better Rhonda. This was all over the national news as well. So sorry ;-(...
