Hi All, With the rare opportunity to have all of these CSs and the HCS in one location at Mike and Robinette's BBQ yesterday, I thought it would be interesting to get pics of all of the (passenger side) scripts. The one that has no script is Mr. Bob Teets' 428 CJ HCS The pictures show a...

Hey all, I recently bought the new Five For Fighting CD Two Lights. There's a song on it that is called '65 Mustang. It's kinda catchy. From www.elyrics.net... '65 Mustang lyrics She's my time machine She's my rolling memory She's my family And I love her so She knows my secrets well But...

Hey all, A friend of mine here at work decided to sell his (been in the family since new) '65 Mustang GT Coupe. I had been trying to buy it from him before I bought the GT/CS in '04. If I had the $$ I would buy it off him. Timing is everything!! His brother bought it new. My friend has had it...

Guys and Gals, I have an almost new... Edelbrock 600cfm 4 barrel carb #1406. This is not the dura-shine version. It does include the right angle chrome fuel line attachment. I bought this carb for use with a simple swapout on my 302 when I was going to just upgrade the 2 barrel manifold to a...

Hi all, The heater delete option on the '68 brought up this question to me- Do they still do heater deletes on Hawaii-bound new Mustangs? -Jeff

The '08 GT/CS looks good in orange... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&viewitem=&item=260143341228

Hi all, I have a friend who recently purchased a fully loaded 2007 Mustang GT (minus the Navigation package). She asked me to install a set of 2007 GT/CS Side Scoops for her. She bought them pre-painted to match the car and they go on with some adhesive tape around the perimeter of the back of...

Hi all, I know this might be a borderline taboo subject to talk about...But I was wondering what kind of deals, if any, are people getting on their new purchases of the '07 GT/CS. I've heard the Costco discount is $500 under invoice. Which sounds pretty good. Although I cannot verify it for...

Hi all, I finally got the CS motor to fire up...woo hoo!!! (with the right sized carb and getting the timing correct... I was 180 degrees out on the distributor!!! Ugh!!!) My/our elation was short lived... We got the motor idling smooth and up to temp. After about 30 minutes...making sure...

Hey all, I was just thinking about this issue while looking through my (Marti published) Mustangs by the numbers book. ...and that it covers 1967 through 1973 Mustang facts. Anyone know the story about what happened to 1965-66 Mustang databases? All I've read is that Ford "destroyed"...

Hi all, Fired up the new motor on Monday. Initially, I had some trouble getting it started. But it finally roared to life. :-) Since then it really takes a while to get it to fire up (sometimes it won't). I suspect that it's a timing issue that's causing it to not fire immediately. Maybe I...

Hi All, I'm in the process of assembling my new long block 347. One issue that is concerning me in this assembly process- The oil pan "slightly" touches the oil pump pickup assembly when dry fitting the pan (with the oil pan gasket in place). I can hear it touching when I set the pan in...

Hey all, I spotted this pre-owned '07 CS up in Concord, CA. last weekend. It looked pretty nice. http://infiniti.niello.com/details.php?id=4397 -Jeff

Hey all. In the spirit of the elusive CS tailight pig tail grommet, I'd like to hear what you all have otherwise been unable to find for a replacement part (Doesn't have to be CS specific). For myself, it is the aqua door crank knob. I've been searching off and on for the last three years...

Hi All, With the recent thread about the reproduction grille on E-Bay. It got me to thinking, what would be the most difficult (original) CS specific part to find/replace? Here's my ranking- 1. Grille 2. Side Scoops 3. Trunk Lid 4. Marchal Fog Lights 5. Hood What do you think? -Jeff

Hey all, Was just wondering how many of you have put a 331 or 347 in your CS? I just ordered a 347 long block (Ford Racing roller cam with Edelbrock heads...woo hoo!!!) I'm pretty excited about putting the rest of the engine and acessories together when it arrives. Also, I have a...

Hi all, Does anyone know what the little "hanger" is used for that is on the cowl under the hood? It's kind of close to the passenger side hood hinge. Here's a link to a pic of my engine bay in my gallery- http://www.californiaspecial.com/forums/vbpicgallery.php?do=big&p=972 Thanks, Jeff

Hi all, In keeping with the slippery slope theme that is the engine bay of my CS...(it's a good thing...don't get me wrong ;-) I'm looking to color match (with the exterior) the inside (hidden when the hood is closed) portion of the fenders and cowl that should be the color of the outside of...

Hi all, Have any of you rebuilt your 289/302 block to a 347 (David?) From an article in a past issue of Mustang Monthly, it looks like there is (or could be) a clearance issue with the piston bore skirts at the bottom and the crank. Has any of you folks done the "grinding away" yourselves of...

Hi all, I ran across something interesting in the NPD Mustang catalog. The rear quarter replacement panels indicate a difference in the "C" scoop contour from '67 to '68. I thought the only differences were the rear reflector indent in the early '68s. Apparently, the contour of the "C" scoop...
