Original owner Walt Walls was a great guy to talk to...used to see him at many shows here in Massachusetts. Glad his sons still own it.

CSX 3000 Series / Re: Groovy Sharon Tate in a Cobra photo
June 01, 2024, 06:41:51 PM
I was at the Lime Rock Historics a few years ago and a gentleman had Sebring's 289, CSX 2220 there. I think he was surprised that I knew who had once owned the car. He had a Connecticut dealer plate on the rear and the original black/yellow California plate on the front. He was pleasant to talk with and let me sit in it for some pictures.

Shelby American History / Re: Al grillo history
August 06, 2023, 08:17:50 AM
I live in Peabody Mass. which is next to the city of Lynn. I am fortunate to know a gentleman who was a mechanic at Grillo Ford and he has shared some very interesting memories with me. Shame on me I have not pinned him down to recored his recollections. This man is in his mid 70's so I need to get off my duff and do it.
He was kind enough to give me two of the four original dealer trunk tags that he still had. I shared photos of these tags with Pete several years ago but they never made it to his Al Grillo page...are you there Pete?...I can send you the pictures again
