Hey guys, long time no post but I'm always lurking around!! When I restored Bonnie and Clyde 5 years ago I went to great lengths to make the repro grille look just like an original (sorry Ricky, it is a repro but with the original fog lamp supports and really nice rivets!!). I purchased a tool...

I am happy to announce that Bonnie & Clyde, my S code 4 speed GT/CS, is going to a new home. The new owner lives in Illinois and will be joining the forum as a source of information and enjoyment. He joins a very elite group of GT/CS owners and will represent us well. Please welcome him to the...

Bonnie and Clyde is going back on e-bay for one more run before we head south for the winter. We've enjoyed driving and showing her this last summer here in Idaho, at Monterey and Leguna Seca during car week, and at the International Mustang Meet in Missoula, Montana. She is completely sorted...

We are loading up Bonnie & Clyde and heading South! A week in Monterrey playing at the track, on the streets and all around Carmel!! If you see a really nice Brittany Blue GT/CS cruising around or at the track, give me a yell and say hi! I figure this might be a pretty good venue to advertise...

I've entered Bonnie and Clyde, our S code 4 speed GT/CS, in the Boise Roadster Show. This is an ISCA event that caters to pure rods, but they have restored categories and am in the 68-73 restored group along with a concourse restored Boss 429, a 68 Super Bee 440 six pack, a 71 Cuda, a 69 Camaro...

Here is a link to her auction. If nothing else, there are lots of pictures for you to look at...

Got to start somewhere so I figured $50K (now reduced to $40k) was a nice round figure! I'll be putting her on E-Pay in the near future, but wanted to offer her here first. Here's your chance to own a very rare California Special with a very unique history. One of 111 S code 4 speed cars and...

Here she is all loaded up and ready to go to our first local show. Will be going to the IMM in Vancouver, BC next week for her first big show. thx lee

After nearly 25 years in a serious coma, lots of surgeries and a few transplants, Bonnie and Clyde came back to life with a vengeance!! The original 390 fired up and ran like one would hope after a complete rebuild. After about 6 minutes the temp continued to rise and never stopped. I had an...

I started a post last week on a problem I was having with Bonnie and Clyde's Oil Pressure idiot light. Now that I have this issue resolved and understood, I thought it would be best to re-post and clear up some of the misleading information I put in that post!! 1. I was not able to find a...

Sorry it's been so long since I've posted an update! The last picture shows one of the bullet holes I left in the inside 1/4. This is the only Brittany Blue S code 4 speed car built! thx lee

Bonnie and Clyde is getting close. Haven't fired the rebuilt 390 yet, but I am happy to report I was able to apply DC power to all electrical circuits and no smoke was let out of anything! All lights, foglamps, markers, signals, etc work, except for the oil pressure idiot light.... Ground the...

Progress on Bonnie and Clyde has been slow, but I am making progress! I fixed and re-taped the bullet damage to the original tail light harness, but was surprised to NOT find the fuel guage wire as part of this harness. A little research leads me to believe the original fuel wire came down the...

I think I mastered the grille rivets and now have a nice new reproduction GT/CS grille ready to install! I ended up getting the hand peening tool from Graingers and went with the 3/16 long rivets. Both the rivets and tool came from Hanson rivets and were resold by Graingers. I'll be happy to...

I found some tubular rivets and a peening tool at Tandy leather. I had to cut the rivet down a bit.Take a look and give me your opinions. Should the heads be more "round" or "domed"? What should the backside crimp look like? Is it a rosette like this or just a bulge? Thanks and Merry...

Looking for a decent pair of Mustang Roof Rail Weatherstrip Channels - L & R - with mounting hardware. Thanks, Lee

Bonnie and Clyde has been in the paint and body shop for a couple months now and I've been busy restoring all the other 1,000,001 pieces and parts that make a car so I haven't posted in a while... Painted the underside of the big pieces last week and the rest of the car should be done soon. I'll...

Anyone from the board going to be at show in Bozeman this week-end? Sara and I will be there with our blue and gold 1966 GT350H. I've attended several IMM's in the past and have always had a great time. The organizer is telling me he has 15 1st gen shelby's, 12 Boss 302's and 12 Boss 429's...

The fenders I'm using for Bonnie and Clyde had both the "Mustang" script and the engine size emblem holes welded up. I've looked at a bunch of pictures and I see the "Mustang" script present on almost all cars, but the engine emblem missing. So my question is: for an S code GT/CS, should the...

The body is now completely stripped and on the rotisserie. Been working on getting rid of the Rhino lining on the inside where the mouse piss and standing water compromised the bond. Found the good old heat gun and scrapper to be the best process - nice sauna effect also. Trying to decide what...
