    Red GT/CS on eBay

    Indeed John. I seriously would not mind owning this one as far as performance and overall pleasure goes. She'd be good to show as a restomod, yet a kick in the pants to drive! I give the owner benefit of doubt on his description while remembering that not everyone is as attached (or...

    Red GT/CS on eBay

    As Loomis is close by... ...and after receiving a call from "Ponygal", we decided to take a drive & check this one out. One thing is for certain; this is not a car for the GT/CS purist. It is however, a very nice, well organized, fun to drive and powerful cruiser! Although I'm not ready to...

    New "jewels" for the Jewells!...

    ...Indeed ;-) I asked him the same thing & he said "I'oh'know - we'll figure that out later" ;-)) Jeff, he picked up the coupe on the night before you were there. We pressure washed it in my driveway so you could see all the inspection marks... The gold one was this afternoon. No doubt he &...

    New "jewels" for the Jewells!...

    ...'Was privileged today with going down to Auburn, CA to photograph Mike and Robinette Jewell take posession of their latest of two great '68s! Today was a "honey" of a GT/CS that now features a 302 4v 4-spd! If ever there was a "Gold Country Special", this is it! Two weeks earlier - the...

    My other ride

    HEY - The P-3 Orion!!! My brother commanded one for eight years (VP-50 NAS Moffet) operating over Indian Ocean and Sea of Japan. I flew the P3 simulator at Moffet (crashed on landing every time) back in 1977! Converted P3s are a common sight during the summer months here as air tankers...

    2 GT/CS's for Sale ...

    Testimony... ...The person MUSTANGER is referring to is a "gentleman's gentlman" to deal with! I bought my red car from him about a year ago. My wife and I flew to LA, picked up the car and drove 475+ miles home that night in what was a trouble free totally fun GT/CS cruising experience! The...
