1,000 units a week? Wow, that gives you some idea of how fast they were pumping Ford vehicles off of the assembly line at San Jose! Our car was serial numbered exactly one week before your car (... our serial number being assigned on 05/01/68 and yours dates 05/08/68) ... and they are 1,009...

We hope we'll be able to attend this event ... Yes, Laurie and I are hoping to attend this one with our GT/CS, as she has two cousins in Kamloops and we could combine this into a family visit and a fun road trip. This would be the first major drive out of town for the car since we've had a...

Your choice ... Again, the choice is yours as to which of the many versions of the factory Mustang wheels (or wheel covers) you decide to install on your car. Since there were so many factory options available to the original purchaser, nobody can really tell you that the wheels you install...

Too bad ... Sorry, .... our car is the right colour, but we're just a BIT too far away! (... not that it wouldn't make for an interesting drive!) :wink:

Slowly but surely ... Well, not much got done with the GT/CS over this last winter, but we are just gearing up to finish up a bunch of outstanding "odds and ends" that were on the "to do" list. Finally will re-install the Lucas fogs (long overdue), new wheel opening mouldings, install the Cobra...

A suggestion ... ... by the way, if you're going to install a new wiring harness you might consider wiring in a "kill switch" at the same time. My mechanic wired one in for us with a hidden key, so that if we're away from home and have any concerns about our car we can just turn it off and...

A trip to Costco ... Yesterday I was at my local COSTCO buying a large bag of Purina Dog Chow for my loyal pet, “Biscuit”, the Wonder Dog, and I was in the checkout line when woman behind me asked if I had a dog. What did she think that I had, an elephant? So since I'm retired and have little...
