Dam Joe should have remembered you picked it up!! :frust: Thats a nice look...

Hey Donna...yeah I live in SF but I fly down to Redlands once a month to hang with family and see niece and nephew. Also went to school in SoCal so miss those warm days where you can actually drive around AND find parking. My CS is at the shop getting some work done and lives in Redlands until...

Who had the red GT\CS that worked for Ford, added all the options and then sold it? Putting the fogs in the center like the Shelby and losing the horse like the original? Sick. Otherwise I "third" Steve and go for the "King of the Road" look but would spring for the V8 and pimp it. But right...

Hey was wondering if anyone on the forum was driving their maroon CS on Lagonia Street this afternoon in Redlands CA past Home Depot. Was surprised to see a Cali Spec so close to home. Happy Friday. Robert

I meant to wish my CS a happy 40th birthday last week and get it something special (new seat covers!) but I got busy and so my CS let me know by having a meltdown. Fried the battery cells and my starter in the process giving me a blister (by the way thanks for the diagnostic\psychiatric help Rob...

Of course you would have to add the aftermarket "throaty dual quad Shelby V8" external surround sound enhancer to let everyone know you mean business when you "whirrr" off the line. :smile:

Amazing how many "hotdog" references they worked on. "none the wurst for wear"? Booo... I feel like firing up the grill...

I was kinda expecting you to get on that! What kind of help you need? Depending on the rules I can give up a AAA Plus tow if thats what it takes (Im in NorCal and my CS is in SoCal). :wink:

Looks like a car broker so Im sure we will see it again. Probably keep resetting "reserve" or until he sells it locally. :wink:

Louvers are nice...gives a throwback fastback look. Plus having to take time to prep the car for install sets it apart from others. Go for it.

Cool thanks! Gabe's in Yucaipa turned out to be pretty solid. They has a Barracuda they have in pieces, 65 Mustang they are putting anew engine in, Camaro they are doing frame up, and a 70 Cougar that they are doing all new updated front suspension on. Got a pretty good idea of what I will...

Yeah the issue now is more consistent it just gives the echoing ring when you try to start. Is there a way to I didnt short the solenoid versus the starter from the battery issue? Next step pulling starter...and take it to a shop repair shop to get it checked. Thanks.. Robert

Thanks for the feedback guys...since the battery itself seems like it was bubbling from the inside and the positive terminal was hot I was hoping it wasnt anything else. Originally it cranked at first then successively lost cranking and then juice for lights. This morning I pulled the battery...

So after driving around my CS (been in the garage for month) I went to start it and it turned over without catching (usually it just catches on first turn). I tried again and it clicked (kinda like starter issue). After that it successively did less until on 4th attempt it was dead. No interior...

You guys kill me. I guess you can always open the door and try looking on the other side of the glass?? :rofl:

The main way would be to get a Marti report for it based on VIN, when you locate (it isnt in front dash or registration?). It will confirm it is a true CS the VIN wont show it as a CS. http://www.martiauto.com/

I think Im gonna answer my own question. These guys just did a frame off '65resto so are pretty knowledgeable. Will provide details if interested after appointment. http://www.gabescollisionandrestorationcenter.com/ And I am getting a callback from these guys.. Mark's Auto Restoration &...

Thought I would ask real quick if anyone had experience with classic car repair\restore shops in San Bernadino\Riverside area (SoCal). Im getting my CS a throrough inspection to see what may need to be addressed further down the line. The shops Im seeing right now are pretty high end (not that...

Gotcha...same here Im swinging down to checkon my CS and would love to get it thoroughtly inspected (after I did basic) but dont have a mechanic in San Bernardino Riverside that specializes in classics. Anyone?? :sad: I got the arm on the window, wind in the hair part dialed in, and I got a...

Im in SF..unfortunately Im heading to LA this weekend so wouldnt be able to help out the Forum. When I come back I counve out of the country for couple weeks until end of Feb. :sad: I would have thought a big block would have came with stock power brakes. He has the new Lucas in parts... Robert
