Zerk extensions are great!

You ordered it in November 2010 and expect delivery in March so I wonder why it would be badged as a 2012. Are they rolling the 2012s out mid-year (April)?

Are you related to Rob?!!!

And even if you turn the cap a little, let it radiator burp, turn it a little more and let it burp again, etc. you never know for sure if or when it has really burped itself out. Yes, I pulled an Amy a couple months ago.

Looks to me like we need to all meet at Rarecarguy's house!:wink:

Off topic, but if you want a great kill switch just unplug the tach. If I remember correctly (learned the hard way) the tach is inline with the coil and it must be installed or jumped for the car to run.

Do you know if the quarter panels have been replaced? The June build date is late in the run but the quarters seem to have recessed reflectors, which indicates and early build.

More real tips.

I'll be in that area on Wednesday and if it works for the seller I may be able to inspect it for anyone who is interested.

No mention of the 2011 raffle anywhere on the site.

If I remember correctly the full wheel covers don't cover the outer 1/2" or so of the wheels.

Here's the Marti report for the GT/CS I owned in the '70s & '80s. It shows the tach and trip odometer as a line item but it doesn't say if it's 6K or 8K.

The photo looks like it's of the 1/18 scale model.

A friend just sent this to me. I can't find anything about it on the Central Valley Ronald McDonald website.

Doug, Here's your car! http://cgi.ebay.com/1968-FORD-MUSTANG-GT-CS-CALIFORNIA-SPECIAL-390-/380308651423?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item588c297d9f

Same here. In the past 3 years I got divorced, lost my mother, my father, and had to put down 2 dogs. Out of those 5 events putting down Abby, the wonderful malamute pound mutt, was the roughest.

This Shelby is supposed to be an original survivor. Its lower control arms have little brackets welded on each side. Is that original? What are they for? Check out the missing camber adjustment bracket. Could Ford have just forgetten to install it? Edit Good catch Neil...

If it goes back together easily something is missing. <Sigh>

Here's a photo of my old blue GT/CS. The car I owned in the '80s had a 4-speed and a tach. I'll order a Marti for it and see what comes back.
