Re:Silver grill paint needed It is possible to spray any paint. All you need to know is what to thin it out with; thinner (lacquer), reducer (enamel), or water (latex). Your supplier may add a retarder to the paint if he knows you are going to brush it on. That way the paint takes longer to...

Re:Silver grill paint needed At most paint stores you can buy a little bottle with a CO2 cartridge attached. They cost very little and make the perfect tool for spraying small items. Home Depot or Lowes might even carry them.

Re:Silver grill paint needed Jason, I have an automotive paint gun you can use if you need one. Arlie

link please Sorry about that. http://www.metromustang.com/mustang/parts_locator_request.html

Jason, I just found this web site tonight by accident. They seem to have a used parts locator service or search engine. Don't know why they are or but it looks like they are from Texas and have an impressive site. Maybe others can tell us if they are good, bad, or indifferent.

I didn't look for the tilt steering when I was there since I was having too much fun picking apart the body. Bill spent more time studying the interior than I did so maybe he can shed some light on the tilt steering. The pictures don't show any levers other than the turn signal stalk but the...

If I'm looking at Paul's enhanced taillight picture correctly it seems to have the stock deck lid. The lights should look more in scale if we saw the back end, from further away, with the taillights and the spoiler as a complete package. The added height of the spoiler should "pull the...

The thing that bothered me the most with the car wasn't even the car itself it was that the ad is misleading. There is no mention of the torn headliner, or the dented roof, or the weird paint/body filler bubble thing on the front passenger fender. It also has a '67 grille. Adding up the fact...

Ah yes. That makes a lot more sense. I assumed they were this year's auctions and didn't notice the dates. One is from 1996. Thanks for letting me know that values have gone up in the last 5 years, though.

Here is a link to the Barrett Jackson auction in which a GT/CS reached a high bid of only $12,750, below the reserve. http://www.barrett-jackson.com/auctionresults/common/cardetail.asp?id=165600 There were at least 2 High Country Specials auctioned. Neither met the reserve...

Jason, the under-dash light was not in the box it should have been in. It's funny how those things just up and leave from time to time. Sorry I couldn't help. On a related topic, have you found a good wrecking yard for Mustangs in or around Houston?

There is a GT/CS listed for the Kruse auction in Oklahoma City on February 25-26. Does anyone know if Kruse posts auction results?

I used to have an extra underdash light but I don't know if I still do. If I still have one it is somewhere in the garage in a can full of junk. I'll look for it this weekend. Beside it'll give me a good reason to clean out the garage. Well, that and to make room for the new addition. Who...

OK every time I look at the picture of front of this car on ebay I get more and more annoyed. Is that how a local Ford dealer would have honored the recall notice on the fog lights, by installing huge Lucas lights in the original grille mount brackets? Has anyone ever seen this setup on any...

I can help you with too but it should just unbolt from the framework attached to the body. Then just slide it up.

Bill, there is a special tool for that. I have one and can show you how to use it this weekend if that will work.

A person with a GT/CS on ebay posted all GT/CS cars sold on ebay over the past few months to show that his car is worth around $15,000. The numbers are interesting and very consistent. I hope the numbers all transferred over correctly. The copy and paste didn't work too well. Below is the...

Somewhere, way back in the old postings (maybe 3 months ago or so) is a discussion about this car. I think it was listed for $15,000 and it was sold for "close to that". Then the guy turns right around and tries to sell it on ebay. If everyone thinks California Specials are worth more than...

Reserve is $18,900 but the price is negotiable. Here is their response. Sure that would be great. Just let me know when .We are on the NW side of Houston off of Wirt rd. Price is somewhat negotiable at this point but reserve is set at 18.9. 713-463-5292 Alexis

I sent an e-mail earlier today asking why it has a salvage title. Of course, it says right in the ad why. The engine and transmission were stolen in the early '70s and the insurance company wrote the car off as a completd loss. I just sent them another e-mail asking to view the car and what...
