It's sold, but here's the description. I bet you guys have already seen this one.

Mustang GT/CS. This rotisserie restored California Special is the only one of the original 111 390GT 4 speed California Special's that came from the factory in Brittany Blue. She is a true 1 of 1 complete with her original VIN stamped block and toploader 4 speed. Built to be driven, the 390GT was cammed up a bit, custom subframe connectors were welded in and traction masters were added to the original 9" rear-end. With just over 800 miles since the complete bare metal rust free restoration she is fully sorted and ready to drive anywhere.

Price $ 40,000

If you don't mind spending that kind of money you may like this one, if Cam still has it. No vinyl top.

That was a nice car -- I saw it in person a couple of times.

It's a nice example. How do you guys feel about the vinyl tops?

I think a vinyl top perfectly complements the stripes and ties everything together

Just to circle back on this one, Cam's car looks pretty sweet. The color is a plus, but I'm really set on having a manual.

Personally I like the appearance of vinyl tops, mostly on specific color cars. Highland Green, Red and the Blue colors look better with vinyl tops than the lighter colored cars, IMO.

I agree 100%. Especially red with black top and highland green with black top... reminds me of "Little Red" and "Green Hornet" and I personally think that the Green Hornet is one of the best looking cars ever produced...

Vinyl tops

IMO a vinyl top car sets itself apart from a non vinyl regardless of the color combo. The parchment on candyapple red is hot...but even the lighter cars look good with them as well. And yes I'm a fan of my white walls as well Rob...lol.
