So, it looks like the first one in your links is the second "newest" one in the directory.

Interesting VIN number in the write-up. Just a brain cramp or a state assigned VIN? Don't think you could get a Marti with that number. :grin:

Learn something new everyday. Thanks.

I thought the Shelby's had the black perimeter on the bezels. Most I have seen do. Even very high end restorations.

Condolences to you and your family. While I never met your dad, I have heard so many positive things about him over the years.

You can just pull the heat tube out of the exhaust manifold -maybe. It very well might be rusted in the manifold. Could try some penetrating oil for a couple of days if that is the case. If that does not free it, break or cut it off at the manifold. As far as plugging the hole, when I was a...

I have the 1403 on my J-code with a Shelby intake, K code style exhaust manifolds and a mild cam. Single diaphragm distributor using manifold vacuum. Works great! Easy to tune and never a hesitation or stumble. As far as I can recall the electric versus the manual choke is the only difference...

Good guidance for you from previous answers. I notice you have a new looking chrome thermostat outlet. Those are notoriously of low quality and prone to leaking. You may want to use the old housing after cleaning it up and painting it to match the intake manifold.

Should not be a problem. Just let the car sit outside for a little while if you have had it in a heated garage. Then wash it with cold water not hot.

It brought good money 15 years ago. It will be interesting to see how it does now.

To be sold at the Mecum Kissimmee Auction in January. Looks pretty nice https://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/cars-for-sale/ford/mustang/2544413.html?utm_source=alert&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=2021-12-14

Says it has a Marti but not shown nor is the VIN. Also notes that it is a true GT https://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/dealer/ford/mustang/2541213.html?utm_source=alert&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=2021-12-01

Welcome and congrats on your GTCS! I live in The Village of Lakewood which borders Crystal Lake, IL

Looks pretty nice. Those front tires look very large to me given their stance in the fender wheel well. Guess the restorer did not want the trunk lid stripes.

Lack of pictures is always a turn-off for me. Need back and front pictures, under the hood, trunk and more detailed up close pics of the exterior and interior. When you have a car that people will be interested in why not add more pictures? Maybe more text as well. Not real hard.

A happy and healthy birthday, Neil

Perhaps. This car is top shelf unless it has been neglected. While not being the original color might hold it back a little, IMO the original color would also hold it back a little.

That sounds about right. I remember now that it was not the original color

Sorry, no. I only had the standard Marti on paper and it went with the car.

The selling dealer got back to me today and it is the one I owned. I knew it was even without the verification of VIN. A rough estimate to get it to an east coast port is $2,700. If anyone is looking for a near perfect GT/CS, you will not go wrong with this one even with the shipping cost.
