    Where can I see the Shelby EXP500 Green Hornet?

    I thought Craig Jackson from Barrett Jackson owned the car. If I remember correctly, he was parading the car around last year with the thought of selling it at his auction.

    1968 NEED SOME HELP:C4 vent tube leaking fluid

    Cars are in storage, went and visited them this morning. Forgot to check length, but took these pictures. Can't tell you for sure it is the correct C4 dip stick, but I have no reason to believe it is not. No part number, but it does have the ford motor co stamping up by the handle. Hope this...

    . Next Saturday...

    Very nice Joe. Looks like the car is running well. I don't see dial in's on the time slips, are these just "test and tune" days? If they have a bracket racing season, I highly recommend it, lots of fun. I wish we were still racing here in Denver. david

    385hp 302GT40 Engine For Sale

    I feel a need to post this link, especially after my previous posts. Seems I got a decent deal, but many, many others have been scamed. Please beware if you use this vendor. They are Indy based and appear to sell on ebay and swap meets using several different names. Easy to identify...

    . shelby's black hornet

    Here is a link to more info. My initial reaction - not very interesting from a historical perspective. Beautiful car and they do mention the GT/CS. It is a Green Hornet reproduction (minus EFI and independent rear suspension) that CS approved, sounds like in 2003. Surprised to see that it is...

    Black C/S on E-Bay again

    Looks like a nice car, but if the engine is "new, top to botton" what is up with the rusty looking harmonic balancer in the second to last picture?

    Drag racing my GT/CS

    Joe, great improvement over your first trip. Looks like you have the hang of it! You and David have some pretty fast GT/CS's. I must have missed it, what tires are you now running on the backs? My goal has been to get under 14 seconds here in Denver with my HCS. Blown engine and other fun...

    Edelbrock 600cfm 4 barrel carb (almost) new

    It is great you are giving folks on the site an opportunity, but If there is no interest, try your local Craigslist. I recently sold a Ford Motorsport Intake and the same 600 CFM Edelbrock carb. Gone over a weekend. No shipping and cash in hand. Had this carb on my 302 before I pulled it...

    WTB: 1968 GT/CS in Calif.

    The economy is bad, prices will and are going to come down. I have a C2 Corvette and we have seen prices drop, significantly in some cases. Keep looking, you will find the right car for you. There are good deals to be made. In my opinion, if you have the money, this is a good time to buy...

    Radiator installation help needed

    If anyone is interested, here is what I have found out: 24" radiator will fit, no mods required, just new brackets. Saddle mount brackets are different between 68 and 70. Difference is not due to the radiator, but the location of the bar that the hood latches onto on the 68. The 68...

    Radiator installation help needed

    I don't really have an overheating problem, but it is the one thing I worry about when driving my car for an extended amount of time. I am contemplating upgrading to a 24 1/4" 3 or 4 row small block ac/big block radiator. Currently, I have a 20 1/4" 1970 stock Mustang radiator wtih a 3,000cfm...

    1968 HCS-Brittany Blue 302 4V For Sale

    Nice car. Let us know how it goes. Us HCS guys are always interested when one comes up for sale. Our cars were about 1500 cars apart. My Marti reports says mine was build on June 21, your letter says yours was "produced" on the same day. They must have been working hard that day! Good luck...

    Which look better with styled wheels: White sidewall or Raised white letter tires?

    Black side. Never really liked raised white letters or white walls.

    How do you fill your tank without spills?--'68

    Similar problems, similar solutions. My bigger issue is with the sending units and getting the measurements correct. There have been helpful threads on this topic as well. david

    Big Trouble!...

    Good luck Tim! If you hair is not grey now, it soon will be (in my case, it just fell out). Great to see our kids into these cars! My 16 year old tore down my 302 when I replaced it with the current engine and cleaned it all up. Our local speedway does a high school drag day on Memorial...

    Do you like the 1968 model year Mustang even if its not a GT/CS?

    69-70 SportsRoof for me. I had always been a First Gen Camaro guy, but really prefer the lines of the 67/68 coupes.
