    Shelby GT500

    Ran to Mom and Dads for lunch Tuesday and while visiting my brother showed up in a brand new Shelby GT500. He bought it in Blackfoot, Idaho. Bright Red with White stripes. I said give me the keys and he let me take it for a spin. Man is that thing quick, amazed me how fast it got up around...

    Twister Special

    Saw a picture of the 08 Twister Special Proto in the new Mustang Monthly. Looks like they plan to do it up right. Has all the same features as the original and looks pretty good. Cory

    A local collector, John Bagley, had to put his P51 Mustang down in the media between the freeway while out testing a newly rebuilt engine, Rolls I believe, he walked away with only a few bruises which was great news as he's a really great guy but the beautiful P51 didn't fair so well. He does...

    Modifying an 07 GT/CS

    With all the talk about likes and dislikes of the new GT/CS for the 07 Model year I want to hear everyone's opinions on modifying one. For example if someone was to go out and buy a new CS and bring it home and get some late model Ford parts to make it as close to an original CS how would...

    Shelby for sale!

    For anyone looking for a Shelby this looks like a nice one. Low mileage and excellent shape from what I can see and it isn't far from home so I guess I could go take a closer look if I had the money. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4561380421 Hook

    2008 California Special Member Get Together

    This is in response to Pauls reply in the "If and when they make a 08 Mustang" I just thought it deserved it's own topic so we can visit the idea a bit.

    Thanks again!

    Thanks for the great advice on 67 window roller handles. Took some grease and worked it into the knob on the 67 handles and then installed them and WOW what a difference. Solid, easy to grab, and they make rolling the window up and down a pleasure compared to the old. So thanks for the great...
