SORRY GUYS N GALS,THATS THE WAY I TYPE...HOPE IT DOESN'T OFFEND. IT HAS IN THE PAST.

You're going against a common standard so it's hard for us to read it without thinking you're shouting.

... and will in the future. I don't find it so much offensive but it's a struggle to read when it goes on for more than a line.

BUT I DONT WANT TO CHANGE MY WAYS.

Change isn't easy but it shows a willingness to grow and improve as a person, start with the little things and you'll find a flow on effect to other parts of your life.

ACCEPT ME FOR WHO I AM.

Accepted but hoping to see some improvement with your 'attention to detail.'

Sounds like it is in Aus from your previous post but has it been previously registered in Australia?

O.k but i'm a 1 finger typer so its just a pain to push caps lock all the time.glad it doesn't offend......yes the car is in oz..but all paper work has been lost or misplaced...by current owner or previous.
The body number is on the opposite side to mine is on drivers or left this one is on right/passenger side closer to the firewall.any ideas why.

I think you can contact Infrastructure and ask for the original import approval. Would that be right for the guys that know?

You'll get better with practice, I've seen some very fast 1 finger typers.

Caps lock would be a pain to use for single letters.

You can type single capitals by holding down the shift key as you strike the letter.

I used to press the left/right shift key with left/right pinky finger first, then stretch to type a nearby letter with another finger.

I got better and now hold shift key with pinky and use the opposite hand for keys on the opposite side. It takes practice.

The vin should be on the LHD thats american drivers side,at top just before shockie tower . And yes it has one on the other side as well but it is under the guard should not be visable with guard on .If you dont have a old rego paper ,rego number or any paperwork to prove it has been regod before in aust,you will need the import approval even 25 years back .Give dotars are call tell them your story and vin and see if they can find it and send you a copy .

That looks great colour coded same as body is much better than matt crapy black .Did you find vin under were guards bolt on,and windsors rattle from piston slap and break the skirts . Th.e only early mustangs that come with a 9 inch are k codes ,not A ,C ,or T codes.

Hi Glenn 70, Rocket is my name - i am an old fart. The photo shows my 68 coupe at the Nationals in Adelaide a couple of years ago. The photo shows my daughter in law Fiona proudly displaying an award that the car won. Fiona was kind enough to drive the car to the Nationals for me because i was unable to attend due to illness.

Rocket.
