    GT/CS Project Car

    Beautiful car! The add even says it's rust free. How can you go wrong on a beautiful California Spec like that. I guess if you could get it for a few hundred bucks... and had lot's and lot's of time.

    Marchal Lens

    Can you post or e-mail a pic? Thanks Don I e-mailed Hans but no response yet. I called Pete Geisler and left a message, he had already left for the day. I have to go one way or another. I have one 656 and one 658. One of the original 656's was cracked. Bill

    Marchal Lens

    I won the bid on this Marchal light on e-bay a while back. I have one original light that has a few rust spots on the back side of the chrome. The chrome on this light was better than the chrome on my good light. The lens is whats grabbing me. I kind of like the look of this 658 and think it...

    NOS rear decal kit on Ebay

    I've got an NOS stripe kit to put on my car when it's done. Frankly I have wondered the same thing. Does the adhesive wear out after a bunch of years? I just figured if the NOS stripes come off, I will install aftermarket stripes in their place. Did I score some coolness points? I need to get...

    2005 Registry Update Thread

    I also think that words like sequentialling and gocartish should be included somewhere in your book. lol

    2005 Registry Update Thread

    Paul, Something I thought of and don't remember anyone ever mentioning. I would like to see color photos included. For instance the new GT/CS introduction photos, etc. (maybe they were B&W to begin with?). When you ask things we would like to see such as "Service parts and procedures? More...

    Where to start

    Hello Sara and welcome to the gang. I am one of the guys previously mentioned who had his car dipped. My car is still completely apart and many months from driving down the road. All of the prior suggestions are sound. One thing not mentioned that I thought I might add. Well maybe two. 1...

    100 Club

    Hey Mike, Nice to hear from you again. Kind-of wondered if you were still around. The 100 club is 50-50 for getting out of tickets. My Brother in law has had a cop flat out ask him, did you buy that sticker, when he answered yes, the cop said thanks for supporting us have a nice evening. Me on...

    Losing a Mustang Guy to a Mini-Cooper

    I drove a Delorean once and it had the gocartish feel to it. It was fun but wouldn't want that for everyday. Now if it had 400hp that might be a different story. I know I would get tired of the gocartish feel pretty quick. Side note, even though it may be a chick car, I think they are still...

    Rack & Pinon Steering

    Don, I believe you are misinformed. Kind-of. If you wish to put a Mustang II front end in your car then welding modifications are necessary and the shock towers become useless. There are other non intrusive options for rack and pinion in our Mustangs. Flaming River, Fat Man and RRS all make...

    Question about steering

    Rhonda my car is an automatic but the two systems should not be interconnected. Correct me if I'm wrong folks. Your car being a manual, I would expect to find a Z-bar which changes the direction of your push on the linkage from the clutch pedal to the clutch lever. That bar would be attached...

    Automatic Choke Problem...

    How much wood could a wood chuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood? Answer... None when Hook gets finished with them! Tear em up Hook, sound like fun to me! One thing activists never mention is that these critters duck and hide. I prefer to think of it as your helping improve the quality...

    Tail light frames

    Can we change this to removed? A little thinner and fine steel wool would do the trick. It just gave me images of me at age 17, boy did I have good intentions!

    Holes in Hoods

    Tasco Auto Color. That's the store the body shop goes through. Also that's the store PPG refers you to to buy their products locally. (It's hard to put two two's in a sentence together lol) On the Alcapulco Blue paint on the PPG web site it shows two different numbers for the Ford color. I...
