    Newbie Help on CS Purchase

    Heck I'd like a mini cooper too so there's nothing wrong with that. I currently drive a 90 something Festiva with 245,000 miles on it back and forth to work every day. Gets 43 mpg so I drive it every day and the new stuff sits in the garage until needed along with the GT/CS. I have one of...

    Some help on Exhaust/Windows/Wheels/Brakes

    Non GT car originally should have a single exhaust, my car (Beautiful Blue just like yours) had single exhaust and I changed it to dual exhaust. Unless you are going for concours judging class in shows I'd leave it dual. As for where it should end, it should go all the way out the back and you...

    New Thought

    It's ok Rhonda, there's nothing wrong with the blue feelings you have. A blue Mustang with white stripes is simply the ultimate short of a blue Shelby with white stripes. My exact response to the guy at the Rick Warner Ford Mustang show that offered me $20,000 for my car was, "Sure I'll sell...

    There is no doubt JB would be the CS owner. You're Welcome Casey, and you are exactly right. If only the health, wealth and good looks could be distributed equally. Have a nice day everyone and pay it forward. Still raining in Idaho and it sure is nice to see things green and beautiful...

    Hey Paul, you do it any way you want to do it. I'll even wear a French cut T if that's all you feel like doing. It's your baby and I'll respect it however you make it just make sure I'm on the list, it'll be well worth what ever you make out of it all. Hook

    Colors of the sterring emblems

    This kind of stuff about the cars just baffles me. Why would anyone change it. Even if the paint got bad and someone wanted to spruce it up wouldn't they paint it the same as it was? Interesting things we find sometimes. Makes you wonder if some guy at the factory making the part was mad at...

    Food for Thought!

    According to the University of Wisconsin if we could shrink the earth's population to a village of precisely 100 people with all the existing human ratios remaining the same, there would be; 57 Asians, 21 Europeans, 14 from the Western Hemisphere, both North and South, and eight Africans. Of...
