Does anyone know what a swampwater is, or was? Some A&Ws had them years ago but they were not on the menu.

My Magnaflows are too loud inside the car for my taste. They are fine outside the car. The Walkers may be a better choice for a more refined sound.

Wow, if you only hadn't made those last 2 words all caps I might have agreed with you and asked Jon to take down the thread. Oh well, I guess you can chalk it up to a life lesson in how to get the things you want. Asking politely works much better than yelling.

While looking for 70-72 Chevy pickups I ran across this auction. Check out the high bid......and the reserve has not been met! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1,1&item=110015829980&ih=001&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT

Tiffany, you're just working with a tough crowd here. Most of them are not fond of clones in general so they tend to pick them apart when the opportunity arises. Personally, I was fascinated by how the rear stripe was applied to the stock deck lid so I posted that picture and started this...

It's an interesting mix of years but it's kinda cool. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1967-Mustang-Shelby-GT500-restomod-390-Big-Block-68_W0QQitemZ160016983191QQihZ006QQcategoryZ6236QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Will the 3M stuff that is used to seal windshields work?

Or maybe a Nissan 3.5L in a T-code Mustang!!!:eek: :eek: :eek: Sorry, old habits are hard to break.:wink: :grin:

Now this is something I've never seen before http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1968-FORD-MUSTANG-302-CALIFORNIA-SPECIAL-CLONE_W0QQitemZ260017761161QQihZ016QQcategoryZ6236QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Here is the email thread, read bottom to top. Note the reference to a book he's writing about the restoration. Hi Arlie, Thanks, I'll post this in an upcoming Questions segment and make the change to the text for the upcoming book on Project Mustang. I had a NOS grille for a '68 and decided...

Yep, I get it. You think the car is worth more with Ford parts. I really wasn't taking a shot at you. I was genuinely curious about what the reasons might be. I thought you might have been alluding to the fact that nothing would line up and there could be an excessive amount of work to do to...

The seller says that he is selling the car because he purchased a GT/CS. Is the seller anyone on this site? "I PURCHASED THIS CAR WITH THE INTENTION OF RESTORING IT TO ITS ORINAL GLORY BUT A RECENT PURCHASE OF A 1968 GT/CS THAT I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO BUY FOR THE LAST 5 YEARS JUST MATERIALIZED...

I'm curious Steve, why is it a good idea to use Ford parts on a Ford car? For example if I was digging through a box of parts and found a great looking antenna that would fit perfectly on my rear fender of my restomod would I need to check to make sure it was a Ford antenna? Sorry, I just...

I'm not at all upset but I think my writing probably comes across that way. I think healthy debates that begin with, "I think", or "In my opinion" are great!

Thanks for your comments Steve, I understood it. I wouldn't mind making new rods but I hadn't thought about the supports, and if they are required they would be deal breakers. I'll probably never do this project anyway. I was just wondering if anyone had ever seen it done since the curve...

In my opinion there is immaturity in blind brand loyalty. Good Lord, it sounds like we're all back in high school auto shop again, "Ford Rules", "Chevy Sucks", "Chevy Rules", "Found on Road Dead". Come on, we should have left all that nonsense behind us 25 years ago. The GT/CS is a great...

Sounds like some Ford people might be a little narrow minded and could use a little maturity.

Has anyone ever seen a Mustang with flush Corvette door handles? It seems to me that they would fit without too much work.

Unique tail light treatment. Might have been easier to use '69 Cougar lights. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1967-MUSTANG-CONV-ELEANOR_W0QQitemZ230015532025QQihZ013QQcategoryZ6236QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Jason, this isn't too far from you. Looks like it might be a good reason to fire up the 390. Your aqua car parked next to that red one would make a great photograph!
