David Randal, owner of Randal Restorations, passed away Wednesday after a long illness. David was an early restorer of our cars, including the first restoration on the Super Snake 1967 GT 500, CSX 3020 (back-up car to LeMans), and several 1965 GT 350s, including 5S046 and 5S238. David perfected the wood steering wheel restoration process, and could replace all the wood on 1965 and 1967 Shelbys. He is credited with numerous magazine articles in Muscle Car Review and Mustang Monthly. As restorations became more popular, and more knowledge made available, David was humbled by the people in the hobby that helped him restore cars. His kids now run Randal Automotive in Kerrville. He was a good friend and restored the steering wheel in my 1965. A memorial service is Tuesday in Kerrville, Texas. God speed David!

The Texas Ford GT guys held a mini-rally in the Texas Hill Country this week. We were based at the Hanger Hotel, a WW2 themed hotel on the Fredericksburg airport ramp. A couple days of driving through the hill country were awesome, with stops for Texas lunches and winery's. We even went to Luckenbach! Thanks to Chris Crawford for putting this together, and Rich Brooks (Ford GT head concours judge) for bringing a couple cars down from Michigan. Fun times for all with great food and driving. Enjoy the photos.

It's hard to believe that the '05-'06 Ford GTs are now twenty-years old. With that milestone comes their eligibility to participate in SAAC Concours competition. This will begin at SAAC 50 in Sonoma, California in August 2025.

The Head Judge will be Rich Brooks, "The Ford GT Guy". Rich has been involved with the cars since the beginning, having worked at Roush. He continues working on them today. As with all the cars in the concours, the GTs will be judged for originality and presentation. For more information, log onto the Shelby American Automobile Club forum under News from HQ. Thanks.

They swithched from American Modern to another carrier. 95% increase for four cars with all the same coverages. Needless to say, I'm shopping for a new policy. I've been with them for more than 30 years.

Must be Gulfstream Aqua or White, 4 speed, white interior and top. Rickmustang427@gmail.com

Can just the mast be replaced with a reproduction or does the entire assembly and cable have to be replaced? Thanks

I think this is for a trap door? What year? Thanks for the help...I'm cleaning the shop.

I finally started work on my high school car purchased in 1975. It's all original. I should have retrieved the build sheet a long time ago. Any advice on getting it unstuck from the carpet and floor? Thanks.
