Is this a '67 HCS? http://adcache.collectorcartraderonline.com/10/5/4/79427354.htm

Good point Rhonda. I wonder if this guy is as dumb as he seems. No reason to even run a Marti report on it since it is an 02 car instead of an 01 car. It'll be interesting to see if anyone bids on it.

It isn't even a correct VIN for a GT/CS.

Anyone looking for a project for the summer? Slap a Nissan 3.5L V-6 in there and you'd be set! ;D http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=6236&item=4550968224&rd=1

Casey, don't let your wife fool you. Women are just as lockerroomhumorish as men, maybe more so. In fact, if the men in the company I work for told the jokes that the women tell we'd all get sued for harrassment. I've done a lot of research on this area and found that the women we know and...

If any purists did question the lights you could always feed them an outlandish story about these lights being the original lights that were supplied on only the first 6 cars. The factory decided to switch over to the lower candlepower lights for fear of the feds banning the lights but the ploy...

It seems to me that the only way the adhesive could lose it's stickedness is if the backing has pulled away. As long as the backing is in place and air hasn't reached the adhesive it should be fine. Has anyone ever applied the stripes before spraying the clear coat? That would sure help keep...

Is there any reason to purchase this NOS stripe instead of a new aftermarket stripe, assuming the prices are the same? Can anyone tell the difference between the two? $8.00 for shipping and handling? The thing weighs 5 ounces!!!

I kept breaking the Ford arms so I went to the hardware store, bought some all-thread, and made my own. Put one on the trunk just so I'd have a spare. Never needed it. The all-thread is incredibly strong and it screws right in. It's also infinitly ajustable. Just a thought for anyone who...

Knurling is the process of making the diameter of the guide smaller by making the walls look like a cheese grater. Some material sticks out and some is recessed. It is just a temporary fix since the "teeth" get worn down fairly quickly.

The clutch itself usually has just 4 parts, and all 4 should be replaced at the same time. You have the throw-out bearing, the clutch disk, the pressure plate, and the little brass bearing that goes in the back of the engine (can't remember what that's called). Is the problem that your...

I completely agree with Bill in that a rolling restoration is the best of both worlds. If your eventual goal is to drive your car, and you are one of the lucky ones whose car is in good enough shape for a rolling restoration, then drive the car and enjoy it and upgrade it as you go. With a...

Sara, as I see it the path you take depends on 2 things. First - how much rusted is the car. Take a good look at all the structural members of the car. Remember that this is a unibody car so the floor is a big part of the frame. Also look at the cosmetic rust. Fronts of doors, tops of wheel...

I think the proof that we are not the generation the automakers are targeting (big mistake since we have all the disposable income, and the time to spend it) can be seen in the recent changes to the Mitsubishi Galant. IMHO the Galant was a good looking car for a 4-door. It was also one of the...

The hose clamps are just to make sure the hoses are securely attached to the fittings. After all these years I don't remember how air shock fittings work but I think they were a little iffy. Maybe they are better now. Don, it looks like you and I are the only supporters of air shocks. New...

Rhonda, add my vote to those who suggest checking the valve for the leak. The reason being that we just resolved an air conditioning problem at my house (after a year of trying) by replacing the valve stem. The system held a charge and refused to leak when the testing equipment was on it so...

How about this one. 909-624-0363 You'll need to cut and paste the link...

Mike, I just read some of your old posts. Did you ever find the one Lucas light you were looking for? If not, there is one light on ebay right now...perfect condition. We need to all meet at Sam's on of these nights, or at Bill's so we can get some work done on his car (pronounced, "shell")...

Hot Dang, another Housoner, Housonite, Houstonian....another person from Houston!!! To make sure you are up to speed with the Houston GT/CS scene here it is in a nutshell: Bill (Kingwood) and I (Humble) are restoring his GT/CS in his garage. Going to start bodywork Saturday. I'm looking for...

Bill and Jason have you guys heard of the 100 Club? It seems to be a good cause and the window stickers might come in handy some day. I think the website is www.100club.com
