That link didn't work for me. try this one. http://www.autothing.com/funthings/Auto%20News/2004%20Auto%20News/January/ATnews-JAN-04-008.htm Here is another one about the same car. If all else fails just Google "Little Red Shelby" http://www.volocars.com/news1.html

Oh great, thanks Jon. I thought I was over this whole needing to get a GT/CS thing until I saw the pictures of the Highland Green GT/CS. Looks just like my old one :'(. Now the urge is coming back. That'll be good for another 3 months of withdrawals! My wife and I were in Maui last week, at...

Dark blue with blue interior There is also a red one in Illinois http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4543204669&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1

Hey Jason, I have 2 garages with 2 stalls each. I'm using only one garage right now so if you want to store that Gulfstream Aqua one here let me know. Just make sure you leave the keys so I can, uh, move it around once in a while. Gotta make sure the tires to flat spot. ;D

You can also use automotive undercoating. It comes in spray cans and you can get it at any auto parts store.

Dang, is there an option the car doesn't have!! I find it interesting that there were 19609 Sunlit Gold cars but only 568 of them (3%) had the Nugget Gold Decor seats. Another rare find for Jason. The Burgundy GT/CS flanked by the 2 Sunlit Gold coupes would make a very nice picture. BTW...

did someone say original marks? Here are a few from a car I just bought Saturday. Original paint is still on the car. So....don't keep us hanging. Let's hear about the car. Is this the 390 4-speed car you were talking about Saturday? Where on the car are the various numbers?

Now that is a pretty engine compartment!!

I totally agree with Hook in that anyone with the patience to perform a concourse restoration, right down to every little mark and tag, should be commended. The thing is that the chalk marks in the pictures of the red GT350 are HUGE and I just find it hard to believe that a car would have...

Here are a couple sites that talk about the Buick Special California GS. Or something like that. http://www.uniquecarsandparts.com.au/car_info_buick.htm http://user.dtcc.edu/~rod/buick/california.html Colorado even joined in on the fun. That sounds familiar. And to top it off here is an...

Sorry, but I had another thought. Hey, that makes 2 for today. That might be a record! Anyway, would the dealer have wiped off the obvious chalk marks before the car either went on the lot or was given to the customer? If so then what is the point of restoring cars with the marks. Is it...

That extends over to the bodywork, too. Check out the panel alignments and gaps on a museum peice restoration. They certainly are not as they came from the factory!!! No one would accept such shoddy work. So if the gaps are all uniform and tight the car really isn't a "perfect" restoration...

Here's a link to a site showing a '68 GT350. It shows oval. http://www.legendarymotorcar.com/inventory/6020col.html

Are your brackets installed? If so you might want to try my Mickey Mouse method. Just set pieces of chalk in the brackets and close the hood. The chalk will mark the underside of the hood. Make sure the chalk is not too high or you'll get lines instead of points. Any type of putty or even...

From the posts I've been reading about Kevin Marti I'm sure he would help find this information.....for more money. Sorry, that was harsh, but the last few posts about him have not been pleasant.

In my case I was planning on building a Little Red or Green Hornet clone. I was leaning towards the Green Hornet since it was Highland green. I had all the fiberglass on the back of the car and also had the side scoops on then life took a turn and I had to wrap up the car quickly so I painted...

But wouldn't listing the clones, hopefully by VIN, help members of this board and the public in general by alerting them to the fakes? If I were looking to buy a GT/CS (which I am) it would sure be nice to have one more resource I could check to see if the car in question may not be real...

That's a whole lot cheaper and easier than replacing the timing chain, unless it's original then it must be replaced anyway. Those plastic ooated chains were not one of Ford's better ideas.

Paul's original post said that the clone portion of the registry would be way in the back of the book like an appendix. That seems to be a good way to handle the clones because he is leaving it up to the reader to decide if the list is there to single out "bad" cars or to give a little...

Hook was the car drivable before you rebuilt the carb or did you rebuild the carb because the car quit? The reason I ask is because a slipped timing chain can cause what you are describing.
