And all the 0ne,two,three year old ones,(and a few others)are being snapped up to be shipped to NZ,to their new owners..A friend down the road has a 2001 Mustang Shelby,and his father in law snatched a 09 GT out of Texas last year,,5sp,with only 1500 miles on it,cos the owner couldnt get to grips with three pedals,so the story goes..(he bought another new one,identical,with auto)..Micah 6:8
If we aren't supposed to have midnight snacks,,,WHY is there a light in the refrigerator???

Looking good Bobby. We got my Mother's 68 home and will begin work on it this winter. I think I'm going to give her the wheels and tires from my 40 to put on it. Oh yeah, is it in color yet?Ryan

Bobby looks like you have the original hub caps on there. I remember searching all across the state trying to find some, in the early 80's for my 68. I paid a premium for the used ones in good shape that I found. If you go with mags, either keep those for the stock enthusiast buyer, or sell them on Ebay. I believe they still are worth a bit."

Those wheels were known as "Styled Steel wheels" that's why the premium price. And with the correct hubcap...$$$$

Yes those are the originals from a 68 GT Still have the correct bias plys on them . - I also have the originals that came on the Cougar for 69 with GT caps .
I got lucky and picked up all 4 with caps for $200 not bad . Caps can bring $75 a piece .

Yeah, the '67's did add a bit of weight to the back end compared to the early models, didn't they? Got worse as time went on, too. I mean, just look at a '69 edition.....Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
You're welcome Mike, glad it worked out for you. Roger, it's taken a few years but my inventory of excess parts has shrunk a fair bit from 1 1/2 garage stalls to about an eight by eight space. ...
