    Latest battery recommendations

    I have searched the forums, but I want to make sure I’m current on battery recommendations for the 05-06. I gather not many manufacturers are still making series 25. At one time , I believe the the battery of choice was Odyessey. Lately , I gather folks were going to Optima which I thought had...

    Ford Airbag emblems

    I have a good friend with an 05 he’s had many years. The Ford emblem on his airbag has deteriorated. I was wondering if anyone knows where I might find a replacement. Thanks

    Mecum predictably boring except Heritage

    Fortunately I looked a Mecum before the Dallas show and 90% of it looked like a dealer used car auction. Only real interest was a low mile Heritage at $704,000 .

    A tribute to American muscle

    In honor of the upcoming holiday, I dusted off 3 American rides, the likes of which we may sadly never see again. Happy holiday.

    Something I always wanted —a 63 SW

    Delivered today—a flawless restored, silver/red 63 Corvette split window. Gorgeous design that will make you appreciate the hell out of how well modern cars drive. Whew, I’d forgotten hard clutches, loose steering etc but knew that going in. Worth it.

    Another 12 before they are no more

    In my quest to drain my estate I picked this up to go with my 812. Zero rear visibility but fun.

    Lost a rondel—-8

    I’m having the film replaced on my 06 Heritage and the rondel on the hood came off with the film. Is there a place these can be purchased? Or if someone has a single 8, I’m happy to buy. Thanks. Terry

    Thanks

    It’s been a great 10 years here through 3 GTs and 1 NGT, but it’s time to move on. Enjoy these cars and the forum.

    2018 GT For Sale

    The absolute pinnacle of my car buying history was being lucky enough to be chosen for a NFGT. I have had it 2 plus years which has nicely timed to my coming retirement. The car has 1850 miles and service is up to date by Sheehy Ford of Maryland. (Courtney). The car is silver with lightening...

    Just replaced my wife’s Audi Q8 for 21 RS Q8

    So last year I bought my wife a 20 Q8 Prestiage. After she kept bugging me about lack of HP (anyone buying this so far?) I spent the last 3 weeks searching for an RS. Finally found one in port not preordered and bought it. At almost 600 HP I guess it’s the baby Urus. Haven’t driven it much, but...

    Coolant leak, GT tech and Milliken

    As previously posted, I had a coolant leak at the left rear of my 18–pretty heavy leak so be mindful. Milliken’s tech basically called it by my description—hose, etc. My tech, Courtney from Sheehy Ford worked with the Milliken tech and long story short the car is back. Anyone in the mid Atlantic...

    I’m a Chevy guy

    Lol. Every gen of Vette I tend to buy the first year and usually keep it a year. Here is my car sitting at Kerbeck. Nothing special—a 2LT without many options.

    Ultimately where will NGTS land?

    It’s a poor comparison but I recall after 2006 the GTs that I lusted after remained in smallish part in dealerships and were in the high 180s. Then several years laters crept over 200 then well over 200. Lately they have ebbed a bit. So, while you would have to tear my NGT out of my hands, I...

    Marble wrap floors

    So this is not new technology but I just replaced my garage floor with marble epoxy wrap (not sure why it’s called wrap). It’s similar to what I have in my other garage but instead of epoxy flakes they mix colors of your choice to create , however accidentally a mosaic on the floor. So far...

    Anyone with opinions on Hefner Exhausts?

    I initially had no intention to do any mods on my NFGT. IMO, you cannot improve on the looks or most anything else. While the exhaust note is certainly satisfactory, I’ve been thinking about the Heffner exhausts. Anyone have opinions on these exhausts—sound/looks? Thanks
