    68 GT/CS Eleanor

    I would have to agree that the big dollar market seems hell bent for leather on modified, cloned, hopped up, conversion, retro cars. I will take issue with your statement on the 67/68 coupes being ugly ducklings. I personally think the 67/68 were the best looking years of Mustang even in the...

    eBay Shelby Clone

    Not only are the clones getting out of reach $ wise, at this rate there will come a day when the fad will be to restore a Shelby Clone back to an original convertible/fastback because eventually there won't be any original 67-68 convertibles or fastbacks as they will have all been converted to...

    Automatic Choke Problem...

    Now that's an idea, we actually thought about a Northern Idaho vacation and I was trying to talk the wife into doing it this year, in fact I wanted to just head North from Lowell after the rafting for a week or so but she seems to think she has to many projects on the house this year and doesn't...

    Automatic Choke Problem...

    Sounds like something I need to do as well. Mine starts cold but the choke isn't reacting like it used to. I need to lure that Steve guy a little further south than the white water float we have planned this summer and then take advantage of him while he's here. Still no turn signals but then...

    GT/CS Exhaust

    I'm going with deltaflow 40's and I think I'm going 2 1/4 on the pipe. Haven't met up with the master yet but I should be in the next week or so to hammer out the exact details. Hook

    Getting off old stripes

    Are you trying not to hurt the paint underneath? Are you going to repaint? If you aren't worried about the paint underneath then a razor blade is how we always removed stripes while I was working in the body shop. Just a flat blade and slide it along under the stripe. Hook

    1968 GT/CS for sale on Ebay

    The ad never actually states that the car is a real GT/CS. It says it has, "CS/GT options". With verbiage like that he must be a lawyer.....not that there's anything wrong with that. Even if it is a clone it has air and a deluxe interior so for the right price it might be a good deal...

    Who is 68 calspec on ebay? You're an assh-le!!

    How true it is. I can't even count how many bids I've sniped in the last few seconds. My advice if you play ebay. Get DSL, speed wins, the later in the game you can wait to throw in your final high bid the more apt you are to win, may the best man/woman win! I lose some in the last seconds...

    Trophy Mustang

    My dealings via email with Trophy Mustang have been with Mike I told him I had been pleased with my dealings thus far and was going to give some positive feedback here to the group as I had been elected the one to give Trophy Mustang a shot. He sent back this email (below). Maybe we could get...

    Your GT/CS "Plans"??

    Looks like they bought the wrong size as well. But I guess that's the way of the future generation. What would you guess...size 32 wheels? :o Hook

    Trophy Mustang

    I'd have to say I am very pleased with Trophy Mustang thus far. Ordered my goods on the 15th received an email from them on the 17 stating they did not have one item but they were going to ship everything else so I wasn't waiting for everything and they would ship that item when they got it...
