    Clutch fan question.

    Should the 289's have the fan shroud? I don't remember mine having a shroud? Guess I better go look and make sure maybe it does and I just don't remember it. Hook

    Fired up my GT/CS

    Oh so true all of it. ;D Speaking of accounts with Mustang ???? Anyone have a preference? California Mustang, Oklahoma, etc etc. I had a current California Mustang add magazine in front of me and went to the Oklahoma web site and found the Calif prices to be lower on the item I was looking...

    Fired up my GT/CS

    Picked up the new tires today and put them on, picked up some licence plates and registration, stopped at my insurance agent and told him to give Haggarty a call, put on the new tires and took it for another spin around a country block or two. Sure is nice playing with the car now compared to...

    Fired up my GT/CS

    We bought our home from family and it consisted of 8 acres on the Henry's Fork of the Snake River, I fly fish all the time so that was perfect. The house was built in the 30's and it is old but it's solid and it's square, takes a candle to heat the thing as it was originally a log home and they...

    I do all the house modifications and repairs myself, I have a nice wood shop with all the tools, I built all our kitchen cabinets and she loves them, I update, create and modify upon her request and I think she likes knowing that if she needs a change she just gives me the list. Were not fancy...

    Fired up my GT/CS

    I typically start it and run it a couple of times a year, this is the first time it has been started since last summer. However I haven't had any intentions on doing much with it until Paul mentioned a possible get together at some future date and that seems to have been the push I needed so...

    Fired up my GT/CS

    Put a battery in the car Tuesday and it fired right up the first time. Took it for a cruise around the property and after a few adjustments on the choke it leveled right out and run like a sewing machine. Ordered up two new front tires to match the back as the back are already new and the...

    Fly Fishing

    Well if you ever go on a Yellowstone vacation give me a yell I'm only about 30-40 minutes from the Yellowstone area and I'm always looking for someone to cast a line with. For those who have never been to Yellowstone add it to your list of have to do's. We go through Yellowstone park yearly...

    Fly Fishing

    Speaking of a few hobbies I thought I'd see if there were any fly fishermen in the group. If so and you ever get out to the Yellowstone or S.E. Idaho area let me know, I've got a drift boat, know the Henry's Fork like the back of my hand, live on said river and love to fish it. I'm not the...

    1973 big block coupe

    Not many locals that will take the ride through Yellowstone as the groomed trails get so rough from all the traffic of the sleds and cat track vans that it beats you to death and you can't set a single track off the trail so all the millions of acres of pure deep white powder are tempting as all...

    Boss & GT/CS

    GT/CS Clone Registry?

    I'll try and be brief but I will add this, Pauls book in my opinion is so much more than a registry it is the in's the outs the ups the downs the who the why the when the where and so much more and it's targeted at us the owners to learn from and share. A registry is a great idea for those...

    Speaking of Clones?

    I guess the odd thing is that the entire idea yanks me in two different directions at the same time. The word clone itself gives you the feeling of cheating or dishonest when you hear it, yet you think a person can't afford some of the high dollar cars so cloning one for personal enjoyment may...

    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...

    Speaking of Clones?

    I find it odd that no one comments on the new old Shelby. Let me ask these questions, isn't this the ultimate clone? What effect does this have on the Shelby world? Does this lessen or increase the worth of an original Shelby? Should this be considered an original Shelby? Who should have...

    New show photos in the Gallery

    Wish I had one just like the Okie Special, I'd call it the "Tater Special" paint it beer bottle brown with gold stripes so it looked just like a big tater. That Okie is a beauty. Hook
