Polished concrete I know I'm being rather boring but I use half my shop to work on cars (no actual talent implied as I always have a fire extinguisher by the ready) and so staining/dropping oil etc. is a problem. Over the years I've got quotes, even purchased 100ft square of Racedeck just to...

I'm going to throw in my 2 cents. I have a few cars and like to work on them as much as possible myself (however, "mechanic" and my name in the same sentence would never occur). I know I'm stating the obvious but cars that are not driven become mantle pieces. They get relegated to the show-piece...

I'm 6'3" and thanks to my thinning hair line, still just barely fit in the car. After the first 5 minutes I forget about the roof basically brushing the top of my head. My 6'8" son however, although he is trying to convince me that he "fits", looks like a sardine in a can! Not sure if I will...

Hey Lancer, just a shot in the dark but Legendary Motors sold a Canadian midnight blue 2006 Gt just 3-4 weeks ago and it MAY have been sold locally. Perhaps given them a call to find out. Steve

Wow, great response. I didn't realize there was such a large contingent of owners in Alberta. Thanks for the advice for the 3M! I think I'll add a strip to the roof leading edge and the air intake and take a look at the rear bumper area. I know the lambs (thinking Diablo) get a lot of grime...

Well, I finally found a car that I could actually buy! Thanks to everyone on the site for their assistance and advice. Purchased in Ontario, Canada it will be arriving in Alberta next week and then have all of the necessary paperwork to put through. I've already booked a 3M film for the entire...

Hi there sr71, do you ever attend the Saturday morning event at Distinctive Collection during the summer season? There are several GT's there most Saturdays. Even if you don't, I am hosting cars and coffee on 2 March at my place in DeWinton 09:00-12:00 with the focus on anyone passionate about...

OK, I just need a few hours to track down enough monopoly games to make-up the 1.3M.....; Texas - pretty close to Mexico; maybe you want pesos?

I should clarify in that I'm looking for a stock car. Steve

Hello everyone, Well, I'm officially my own worst enemy as I wrote this forum a couple of weeks ago, had TWO midnight blue GT's on my list for potential purchase and by the time I made the decision to purchase, they had both sold. Now I cry myself to bed every night like a teenager having lost...

The Educated Obviously lots of passion for the car here! Thanks for all the input. I don't think there's a doubt I will get a GT, it's rather choosing the car that best fits my budget and and preferences. Thanks for all the input, it always astounds me how much knowledge is available through a...

Hello, new to the forum. I am actively seeking my first GT. Any concerns about cars out of Canada? They are missing the MacIntosh stereo and have larger rear bumpers. Any downside to re-sale down the road? My plan is to buy to enjoy but when you're dropping 200k, I think it is prudent to make...
