Is this your car? If so can you tell us a little more about it?

Yes. I bought my GT/CS from Steve (Mechanicalguy) back in late 2011. A few years later I travelled to USA and met up with Steve and he gave me a private tour of the LeMay car museum outside of Seattle. Great guy.

The original owner lived in state of Washington and the car stayed in that state until I imported it to Australia. We drive our cars in winter and not so much in summer as it it too hot, the opposite to Washington.

The car came with original logbook, Autolite warranty card, DuPont colour chart, copies of CG/CS brochure and media releases, Recoginiton Guide & Owner's manual book, Mustang Monthly magazine that featured the car and the 30th anniversery of Mustang collector cards that featured the car

It has been a good car with only usual old car maintenance requirements.

The paint job was okay but as my brother is a spraypainter, I had it stripped back to bare metal and repainted.

I've kept it stock as much as possible except for ceramic coated headers to provide better cooling for Australia's warmer weather. I have used more modern parts such as coil and ignition leads but I have the original looking parts to put back on for shows.

Went to many car shows initially (the car was well loved) but not for the last several years so time to sell it.
