I just returned from the MCA Grand National Show in Park City and wanted to report that some very nice GT/CS and HCS Mustangs were present at the show. Somethingspecial's beautiful Highland Green GT/CS took a Concourse Trailered Gold award and Bob Teet's beautiful red HCS took a second in...

Okay, I'll be the one to side with Donna Diesel regarding the Knott's Show and here is why. In my family, when someone has a birthday, a party is held to celebrate that person's special day. When my sister had a birthday, I didn't get any presents, and I didn't blow out the candles. Maybe...

Paul, I guess I'm a bit confused about what you are asking. Are you interested in our thoughts/opinions about the two GT/CS versions, or are you asking if the new version should be included in the "classic" GT/CS group as an "equal", or should the new GT/CS be given the same emphasis in your...

I just got on the site with no problems at all. It must be back up. FYI Russ

Hi Rich, If you are interested in a 289, C code engine bay that is pure stock, please check out my highland green GT/CS on Russ's Gallery. Hope it helps Russ

I own a Wells Cargo enclosed trailer and it is a wonderful trailer. It is well built, has four wheel electric brakes and torshion bar suspension. It rides very smoothly and tows like a dream. My trailer is 18" long and weighs in at 2700 empty with a GVW of 7000 fully loaded. The trailer has...

I have a true, original "J" code GT coupe, and it does not have welded shock towers. The car was built in late February. Hope this helps, Russ

I have the new 3M bra on my 2005 GT and like it a lot. It was installed by a company that installs tinted windows. You can cover the front facia, the hood, the lower areas of the fenders or any other area that you don't want rock chips. It is clear and shiny, and you really have to look close...

The generally accepted date is February 15, 1968. Hope this helps Russ

My wife and I just got home to Flagstaff, and we wanted to tell everyone at the show how much we appreciated their hospitality! What a great group! We felt like we had known everyone for years!! My thanks to Luis for starting his car up (it sounds, and looks GREAT!!) and bringing the...

Concours trailered class can use reproduction parts, while the "throughbred" class uses only original or NOS parts. Regarding this thread, I like having a car that is the way it came from the factory and is like new. While I have entered my car in the concourse trailered class, I still drive...

Joe, You are right.....the 405 is way too far south. I think we will take I-5 to Beach Blvd. See you Sunday (I hope the weather cooperates!!) Russ

We are coming from Arcadia, and will go south on the I-605, then south on the I-5 to CA 39. I know we will be at Starbucks, but will miss the dinner. See you Sunday. Russ

My wife and I would love to meet everyone at Starbuck's, but we don't know the address or it's location. Is it after you get off the I-5 (?) on the left or right? We are looking forward to seeing everyone. Russ

Arlie, I'm sorry about your engine....but, if you are at all mechanical, and like to work on engines, you can save a bunch of money by fixing your engine yourself! I agree with everyone else, that $9000 to repair a 302 cu in engine is out of line. I recently rebuilt my J code engine and here is...

You have a great looking '04. Inrterestingly enough, Marilyn traded in a '04 redfire GT convertible, like yours, for her new '07 CS convertible. She really likes the new one, but she did keep her personalized license plate for her '07.....it says "A HOT GT". It is very appropriate for her...

Here is a photo of a trio of Mustangs in Flagstaff. The white CS belongs to my son-in-law. He picked up the car the day this photo was taken. He is home from Iraq (yea!) and he loves his new car. I'm standing by my red GT and a good friend, Marilyn, is standing by her new CS convertible...

Paul, My Highland Green Cs is a show car. It is rarely driven and is trailered to the shows. It is in concourse condition. The odometer shows 118,000 miles. My Lime Gold CS is currently being restored. It will be driven and shown. It had a rebuilt speedometer that had been reset to zero, so I...

This is a very helpful article. Thanks for sharing it with us. Russ

Many years ago I owned a candy apple red (Code T) '68 Mustang GT with a "C" stripe, parchment interior and a white vinyl top. It had a white stripe and looked stunning, so my guess would be a white stripe. Regarding the 2007 GT/CS colors, I think it is strange that Ford only offers the GT/CS...
