    Would like to join your GT/CS "family"

    This clone was made from a '67 coupe and perhaps the biggest give-away is the Mustang emblem and block letters on the front fenders. It's also minus the hood locks and correct fog lights. I would never go so far as to fake a door tag or vin. As you saw from the show sign I posted earlier - I...

    Would like to join your GT/CS "family"

    ...Welcome Amy - I see you're already in great company here ;-) I acquired the clone because it was a zero-timed show ready restomod that I could modify without molesting an original GT/CS. I'm thinking of adding a stroked 351W and 4-speed down the road. It's more or less for "play"...

    Rhonda, my brother and I have been doing air-to-air photography (primarily Reno Air Races) for quite some time. We invited Sport Class (world speed record holder) pilot John Parker to our AirFest to demonstrate his "Thunder Mustang". He also brought his Piper Senecca, a twin-engined business...

    ...Stacey, if you ever come to Northern California; drop us a line & we'll likely get you a flight! These guys love to fly, but with high octane fuel around $4.50 per gallon and a plane that burns 60 gals. per hour, it can be pricey... Here's my daughter Katie last summer in the P-51H. I'll...

    ...Oh Stacey, I'd love nothing more than to say that was my airplane, but I couldn't afford the responsibility for such a machine if one were given to me. I've been fortunate to the privilage of chairing our local air shows where we honor the greatest (WWII) generation as well as those like...
