Was a battle to get $49k for mine in 2002. Prices have risen nicely since

I just got a 66 tribute

Very nice, I have had a number of them, bought one a few days ago. Nice driver 1965 with Shelby looks that I sold in 2016.

Good car to bring to the 60th Anniversary Mustang Celebration in April 5,6 & 7 2024.  It is at the Barbers Motorsports Track which is a very fun Track.  Registration is open and filling up fast at MCA.

Thank you, I am a boat ride away, I am in England.

Smoke em while you got em.  Looks like fun factor times ten.

Thank you, At ten bucks a gallon for gas it may not be used too often. haha

I'll have it next week

Saw it a few years back for a valuation and was able to buy it recently.

Based on a 390 GT and is a four speed with dual 4bbl carbs

Excited to drive this one

Cheers. Peter

Haven't heard it in years but did hear it probably ten times as a lad

Years ago there was a guy in Hemmings, Alex Takasian (sp?) he would advertise all these parts from cars he was obviously taking apart to sell in bits

I bought a trunk lid and a front fender. We are talking easily 30 years ago so you can imagine how pissed I was to remember his name to this day

The items arrived in deplorable/unusuable condition. Packing couldn't be less secure. I can't imagine for the life of me how they could be so damaged. I reported it (was so obvious anyway) to the driver and a refund was give. TO ALEX

I finally found out his father worked at a law firm and called there. I got my refund.

I feel for you. I was more angry that original decades old rust free parts were destroyed by sheer laziness. I hope you get sorted

I have always wondered what happens with a salvage title car when it is brought to a no title state.  Many states don't issue titles to older cars NY being one.  It gets a transferable registration.  Does the brand follow?

Ah. That's why so many cars have GA titles. Clean title state. Wipes the Brands

Thank you Bob. Advice from you is as good as it gets

When I said screws: you don't want to see where they put them :-(

I will wet my new panels shortly :-)

Thanks.

Saw this on Facebook

Endemic in the darn things. I have 3 sets of brand new 65/66 deluxe panels in stock, two still in the plastic and in the box that are warped. One other set new but shop worn...same thing. I tried putting them on a rack with weight opposing the bend in the heat. It came out but came right back. Maybe thats why the vast majority of them on cars (non shelbys that I deal with) have a few screws holding them on. A friend just installed brand new panels on a build. He used screws. Another friend with an E car, Screws in his door panels. How the suppliers can't sort this issue out is beyond me.
