Lounge / Carlisle 2014 Ford Nationals
Hey,Kitz Kat! I live to the North of you and was just wondering...do you mean the I-81 exit they tell you to use for the fairgrounds? It puts you onto rt.11 into Carlisle? Here's a little timesaver we use. Drive past that exit and remember the letter "H" look for the "H"elocopter, get off on the "H"igh st. exit (go right at the stop sign) drive past all the strip malls to "H"anover st. and don't make any more turns 'till you see the "H"ess gas station. That's the dreaded intersection you sit at for an hour when you are leaving the show. When you are leaving, turn right at that light and you will see plenty of signs to get you back on I-81 at the High st. exit. Carlisle doesn't want the show traffic driving through the residential areas I guess, therefore the signs telling you to use rt.11. You can save so much time when 11 is backed up! Even when the traffic doesn't appear bad I go through to High st. Just a little info...

Suspension/Steering / Need some advice one 5 lug swap/sn95 brakes setup
Since it's a TC you can just pick up a pair of fox Mustang 5 lug rotors from a place like CJ Pony parts and not have to worry about  a spindle change. They don't have the ABS ring like TC rotors did but it sounds like you're getting rid of the ABS anyway. That's what I plan to do on my '88. Just my opinion.

General Fox T-Bird/Cougar Discussion / Cars you miss
No pics here either but back in the day I had a '72 Maverick Grabber, 302, changed the factory 3 speed to a toploader 4 speed. It looked like a mini Parnelli Jones Boss 302. Wish I had it back. Anybody have one you want to trade for a 5.0 Turbo Coupe?

T-Bird/Cougar Parts & Cars FOR SALE / Turbo Coupe factory radio
Doing some clean-up I found the factory AM/FM cassette radio from my '88 Turbo Coupe. I changed to an aftermarket unit long ago, this has been stored in the box ever since. If anybody can use it it's free to a good home,otherwise it'll be thrown out. It's in nice shape, I would hate to throw it out if someone wants it. I'm in Coaldale, Pa.
