    Heater Core.

    Talk to me about heater cores. I've replaced my heater core 4 time in 10 years all while it's been in storage. Does the car sitting with antifreeze in the heater core cause it to rot and leak? I can't imagine that I've just been dang unlucky and got 4 bad cores. The core in it now is leaking...

    What is it?

    On the inside of the trunk on the fender there is some kind of stuff sprayed on for a sound proofing or something, in places it is a light coat and in other places it looks like it is 1/8 inch thick and in strips. Not sure how to explain it really. Not really strips but it looks like the foam...

    To Shroud or not to Shroud?

    Figured I'd start a new topic on the shroud issue so I could better understand where my shroud went and if I should replace it. How many 289's still have their shrouds in place. I don't remember mine ever having one. It could have been abandoned during some of the clutch replacements but I...

    Why Clone?

    I don't know why but this whole clone thing has a strange facination with me as to how much it really takes place and why. I know I've said before but the first car that ever had an impression with me was a 69 GTO Judge. Now I'm sure that if on that same day it would have been a Shelby that...

    True Value of a GT/CS

    Based on my comments in the SAAC topic I started asking myself why the emphasis seems to have changed here in the forum so much lately toward the $ value of the GT/CS. It took me back to the days when I purchased my GT/CS in the early 80's. There wasn't a computer in every home in fact I'd...
