    Spending time lately...

    Are you going to pull all your old photos together and make your own little Blurb book? You have quite a little history there. I finally got back to work on my own personal journals.

    High winds shred tents at Russo-Steele car auction in Scottsdale

    Can't say for sure but prior to taking my car to a local independent mechanic to have the disc brake conversion done I asked my insurance rep how it would work if his shop was to burn. He said that his insurance should pay but they would more than likely push back and then my insurance would...

    1968 How did you find your GT/CS?

    A friend of my brothers stopped by to visit him one day while I was at his house, he was driving the CS, had no idea what a GT/CS was other than a fancy Mustang. My first car was a 65 Mustang so I was already a Mustang nut. I fell in love with the car. Told him I'd buy it if he ever wanted to...

    1968 Marti Reports

    I just purchased an elite report and it states on the web site that they take 3-4 months. Even at 4 you should have yours by now which means I probably won't see mine until June or July. Can't immagine it taking that long, guess I don't understand what all is involved, must not be on the...

    . 2011 gt/cs

    Nice, still think if I was going to buy a new CS I'd shoot for a 08 to go with the 68.

    Found on eBay today...

    I would love to have a print or even an original for framing and matting of my CS in one of your fantastic drawings with some nice background similar to what you have done with the trains, maybe a classic old gas station in the back? And I would insist on paying for your tallents. I collect art...

    Found on eBay today...

    Tim is an awesome artist and it was an absolute joy to sit on his patio and go through his binders full of art work from planes to trains to cars. Just an amazing artist and my son being a WWII plane fanatic was overjoyed when Tim gave him a signed print of his favorite bomber. It was amazing...

    . Question about long term storage

    One additional comment, make sure you have the trailer secured from easy theft, be a shame to do so much to protect the car from the elements and have someone hook up and steal it. In a Jeep forum I'm in we had a guy with a high dollar rock crawler stored in an enclosed trailer, it was stolen...

    Cobra Project Update

    Looks like reflection from the light tubes above the car. That's my guess anyway. The more I look though the more they look like paint, good question.

    "Repairable" 08 GT/CS on eBay

    We have a local body shop in Idaho Falls that has an advertisement showing a wife just pounding the crap out of what she believes is her husbands red convertible Mustang as she thinks he's having an affair and then he pulls up in a car just like the one she is pounding on with a bat and he asks...

    . Tested the Limits of Ford's 302 Block, lets just say its no Chevy 350

    After reading all your posts I was left with the sense that even though the block split in half you are having one heck of a lot of fun and there will be even more fun in the near future. Good luck getting it all back together, can't wait to see the new results. Cory
