    ...Mike (somethingspecial) can help... He just installed his to perfection! If no one else comes to you rescue by tomorrow - I'll nudge him your way ;-) He'll likely want to know about your '57 Cameo in exchange... He has one too ;-)

    Thank you PAUL!... ...For the complete power steering setup you boxed and shipped to me!! :-) The only problem I had was removing my old control valve ('didn't have that special Ford tool) so after consulting w/ Mike (somethingspecial), 'designed a puller to remove that unit from the pitman...

    What is this car worth?

    ...Nice looking car, but after cruising E-bay just now, I'm thinking it's currently a buyers market. low - $12K to $14K... high - $15K to $18K ?? As much as I would like to say $20 to $25K; I just don't see that trend at the moment. That's only my two cents.....

    Special Purchase of GT/CS Diecast Model

    Rhonda, it will be much easier & neater if you re-spray the whole car and re-stripe it. Whether you use Newitt's stripe kit, Microscale stripe decals or have it custom painted/ striped by a reputable modeler; it will be a much nicer job rather than trying to hand paint or mask between...

    Bouncing Speedo Needle

    I'm still trying to figure out the speedo in the black CS. It too doesn't work and the odometer runs backwards! This one originally had a C4 & now has a 4-speed. The speedo will work if you rotate the cable backwards... 'Just haven't made time to look into it yet.
