    Yeah Neil, that's too true, but what's really bad is I used to be a go to guy for computer problems where I used to work before I retired nine years ago. This new windows stuff has me lost, I just stick with the basics as much as I can. I just went to 7.1 about three months ago - put it off...

    Hey CougarCJ - it may be easy peasy for you but for me it's no chill, Bill. I've placed the curser over the icon, right clicked copy, left clicked in the text box area and right clicked pasted - nada. I've even placed the curser over the item left clicked and held it down and moved to the...

    EXP500 Repli-bute...

    Looks like one needs a refill on the coffee - or what ever. It's really looking great, I bet you are getting anxious wanting to get it together and on the road. Wish I was in Australia to get a first hand look at it. (When I was in 'Nam, I was going to go there for R&R, but it hadn't opened...

    I tried and nada. I have the curser in the body of the text and select one of the icons, but it still goes up to the Title line. What am I doing wrong. When I copy the icon I get this: http://www.californiaspecial.com/forums/images/icons/icon8.gif When I try to 'move' the icon from the...

    How does one enter one of the 'Post Icons' in the body of the thread? I can have it showing in the Title line, but I can't get it to show up in the body of my text. Thanks for any help. Bill

    Pony Express MCA 50th Celebration National Show

    Hi Marty, Sounds like you had a great show. Watch the video for the awards presentation and also viewed several of the mustangs at the event. There was the Gold award for your 1967 convertible in the Concours Trailered class but there was no photo. Congratulations but would have like to...

    For Sale 1968 S-code GT Coupe( Not a California Special)

    With a 360 area code, I think it might be Vancouver, WA, instead of Vancouver, BC. There are a couple mustang clubs in the Vancouver, WA, area. Vancouver, WA, is on the Washington/Oregon border, just north of Portland, OR. Bill

    1968 carb

    When I purchased my GT/CS new in 68, it had a Autolite/Holley double pumper on it, I had just figured at the factory they just grabbed a carb and put it on. From what I gather from the discussions above, it must have been installed by the dealer. My GT/CS had been on the showroom prior to my...

    Pet Thread

    Hey Mosesatm, great idea. Here are the three who've been my traveling companions. The first one is Rusty, Norfolk Terrier mix, I had him for about 15 years until he had to be put down due to lymphatic cancer. The next one is Tanner, Shih Tzu, who I had for about 13 years until his demise...

    Day 1......730 miles

    Sounds like you made good time. Many a time I have pushed the distance to see how far I can get on the tank of gas, after all I do have the extra in the trunk. Been caught a couple times when I pushed too far and the spare just barely helped to make it to the nearest station, where the gas was...

    1968 gas in trunk?

    I have to agree with Mosesatm, most of the time I've had to refuel in Oregon, the attendant said I could do it myself, but he stood by. I think they're watching for those who like to fill to the brim and sometimes cause an overflow. (Which I have done a few times.) Once one of the attendants...

    1968 gas in trunk?

    I've always have had a 2.5 - 3 gallon plastic gas can in my trunk when I make long trips. Other than taking up some space I have found it reassuring even though I try to plan out my refueling stops. Once or twice I have been glad I have had it. Even in Canada, and I've had no problems...

    1968 289 engine recommendation

    I've dealt with Bud in the past and as Rob says he is good and treats his customers as people, not moneybags. I have an 1967 Jag 420 which I had him do a rebuild many years back on the 4.2 six. Unfortunately I had left it unused for quite a while and now I am in the process of restoring it -...

    1968 Informational sign for car shows contents?

    Murf104, Some time back I made a copy of one of the last pages of the 1996 GT/CS Registry and placed it in an 8x10 document protector. It gives a fairly good synopsis of what and why the California Special came into existence. I also made up an 8x10 information sheet on my specific GT/CS. I...

    1968 GT/CS Police Car

    Mosesatm, I was able to find a thread by doing a search for GT/CS Police Car. It was near the bottom. The thread is there but no pictures came across. It was back in January 2005, started by erselt. According to the thread it was in Burlingame, CA. I don't know how to attach the thread...

    Depending on the route you plan, the Pierce County Mustang Club in Tacoma, WA, has their Show & Shine on the 10th of August. Non judged, Participants Choice and the local club does not vote. Then Labor Day weekend is the International Mustang Meet hosted this year by the Greater Vancouver...

    1968 Do you remember your first?

    Fun fun fun I remember my first GT/CS since I still have it. Bought it new in Hayward, CA. After I had it for a few months, I had side pipes put on. When I was stationed in Jolon, CA - outside of King City, I could be heard doing the back roads to the various sites where I had photo jobs...
