Ford’s actions to protect its trademarks come to triplewhitefox.com

I had read about the effort by Ford to protect their trademarks more than a year ago. At the time I was glad I had chosen “triplewhitefox.com” as my domain name. Well, today I received some very bad news from CafePress.com which is the site that I have been...

More on build sheets

I have posted several items over the last month or so on the general topic of documentation on your car (build sheets, My Ford and window stickers) and a number of people have sent me emails in response with relevant details with the intent that I would share them....

Carlisle coverage in September 2007 Mustang Monthly

I have been waiting for this. I figured one of the magazines should be covering this years Carlisle All-Ford Nationals. One of the Mustang Monthly people was around the Saturday of Carlisle and I saw him snapping pictures of the four feature convertibles in Building T. The article covers...

Oil leaks

This is not strictly feature Mustang related but I’m sure many of you can relate as our cars get older and/or usage of them decreases. There is a faithful reader of this site named Ron who sends me lots of good stuff via email and we have lots of...

Originating Dealership

UPDATE: After feedback from several people, it seems that this is not an accurate way to determine the original dealership your car came out of. I did hear from one person that he got his by calling Ford Customer Service. If you saw my post on window stickers, one...

Reproduction window stickers

Ron E. wrote me to inform me that he found someone who does reproduction Mustang window stickers. There are a variety of printing options available and he has posted on the SVT Cobra Owners Assoc. forums all of the details. I have not had one generated for my car...

Ford Customer Service Provides “Build Sheets”

I’ve heard about and seen letters from Ford to Mustang owners providing information on original options. Some time ago Ron sent me a copy of his along with the phone number to call to request one. I never got around to it until I decided recently that I should...

Carlisle 2007 wrap-up

Well folks, it’s in the books. And, I have to say that my first Carlisle All-Ford Nationals was more fun and more successful than I had hoped. I am still riding the adrenaline rush of it all. I haven’t had a decent nights sleep since Thursday of last week....
