    Hi, I was speaking with Hans this morning ( email ) and he doesn't have any 656 Marcheals left. Would you have a contact for some? Thank you, Dave.

    Curious--how much less is a CS worth w/o...

    Our GT/CS was assembled on March 18 1968 ( Marti Report ) and has the 302 block, 289 heads and dome. As Russ points out, the internal difference in cubic inch displacement between the 302 and the 289 was made up with the crankshaft. My thoughts are that the Ford plants used up their remaining...

    Curious--how much less is a CS worth w/o...

    Just a thought. Our GT/CS has a 289 cuin. engine which has the serial number stamped in the block. When I took the engine down last yesr to freshen it up, I noticed that the block has a 302 stamping in the top of the block which would be under the dome. I have heard of other 289 cuin. engines...

    Somewhat Off-Topic: Route 66 Roadster

    Gee Winston, I was only making minor modifications that could be reversed in hours. Now look what you've done to "our special". Well, now that it's done, I think that we should get the first drive in it. Dave.

    GT/CS emblems

    I just received the GT/CS emblems in the mail From Paul Newitt that he had advertised for sale. I have to say that I'm inpressed with the quality and detail of the emblems. If there is anyone sitting on the fence wondering if they should get them or not, in my humble opinion, go for it. Dave

    Instrument bezel/cluster

    Well folks, I'm getting my feet wet here, so to speak. This is my third try at replying and I have no idea where the other two went. I have to admit that I am in a little over my head when it comes to computers. Our special has been listed on this site pretty much from the beginning and it is...
