Looks like he or she is turning a '67 convertible into a '68 Shelby clone.

Here is a string in which we discussed scoops and vendors. Hope it helps. http://californiaspecial.com/forums/index.php?board=1;action=display;threadid=1982;start=0

If you are looking for an original scoop those are pretty tough to find but many Mustang parts suppliers carry aftermarket scoops. Mustangs Unlimited seems to have a pretty good reproduction scoop. I think Rebel Mustang is another vendor. The rear reflector could be either style, depending on...

Someone was looking for an HCS project. Looks like this might be a good car for such a project.

Certainly makes sense. I wonder if the backs are painted metal or plastic.

Sure are some interesting toys in that garage.

Were you trying to respond to the black-backed Marchal 651 post or the Lucas mis-matched post?

They were offered in all 3 body styles.

There is a GT/CS on eBay. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1,1&item=4586048377&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT

Can't tell who makes their dash pad but they seem to have parts that are difficult to find, like the seat hinges and glove box insert.

From what I can tell it's Dashes Direct (through a Mustang parts vendor), NOS, or used. The Dashes Direct pad isn't bad, it's just not 100% original since it has a more pronounced grain.

A lawsuit seems a little strong right out of the box. How about talking to the owner first then determine your next step based on his or her reply to your polite request for a full refund, including shipping costs.

Many NOS Lucas lights up for auction in Europe consist of one driving light and one fog light. A seller recently told me that they were originally sold that way in Europe. Does anyone have any knowledge of whether or not that is true? I tend to think it is since so many auction sets are...

Down here in Texas we'd probably get a few Bubbas with some 6-packs (beer, not abs) and rock the car that way. On second thought, how much does a rotissorie cost?!!!

Here is an interesting option for those of you who are looking for a set of Marchals. The black-backed 651s. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Marchal-FANTASTIC-651-Fog-Lamps-1960-s_W0QQitemZ4585707600QQcategoryZ34207QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Since you were running the car off the battery instead of the alternator did you charge the battery before trying to start it?

You bet! ;D

Here is a link to a car on eBay. They seller says that the cowl has been filled and smoothed and one of the pictures does show a smooth cowl. What kind of grief would that cause? Would the heater and vents work? He also filled in the side marker lights. Would that make the car unlicensable...

Steve, I too wondered why he was addressing his hostility towards you but then I looked up the profile for 68MustangHCS and found that his name is also Steve. My guess would be that our friend was after that Steve and not you. I'd like to second your other comment about everyone being welcome...
