    Whose 390 CS is this on Ebay?

    ...Li'l sad it didn't make at least $35K which is what I gave for mine less than a year ago. "Bluestang's" is in better shape than mine was too! No regrets tho... They just don't come available very often. We sure enjoy the drive :-))

    Bed Down for Winter

    That's a great PDF that should be printed & posted in every garage. Thanks BB! If you don't do all of these things, at least go out and start the car and run it to "warm" every two weeks (keep the garage door open or back the car out;-) In addition, if you're storing your car for 6-months...

    '08 CS wish list - just for fun.

    ...All of the above Jeff... What I like best about the new Stang is that it (once again) has its own distinct identity. There's always that split-second when one approaches that I think I'm looking at a dressed up '68 or '69 fastback! Do you know what I mean? They're starting to grow on me...

    How Rare is your 68 CS/HCS ?

    Thanks Mike. This is all news to me. 'Funny, but back then at 17 - it was quite a while before I knew it even had tilt steering. "What's with the redundant turn signals?" SNAP! "ohh..." I can't tell you how much in awe I am of it today, however. 'Still looking for old pictures here to...
