    Thanks to everyone on this forum....and PLEASE be careful out there!

    After 10 years of GT ownership, I have sold my car. I wanted to say thank you for everyone's help. A special shout out to Shelby Smith. He has been helpful, provided great service, advice, assisted me in handling the first car I owned (which I totaled). I would give him my unqualified...

    Replacment Rearview Mirror For Homelink, Compass and or Temperature Display

    Can the existing power to the lights in the mirror be used, and if it only a compass and homelink, wouldn't that avoid any a pillar work or additional wiring?

    Replacment Rearview Mirror For Homelink, Compass and or Temperature Display

    Hey Gents! I did a quick search on our posts, but nothing came up......Anybody have a recommendation as to a replacement mirror with lights, Homelink feature, (so I can quit keeping a garage door opener on the visor!) and maybe a compass feature? I like the exterior temperature readout also on...

    engine dress up kit / accessories...i.e. oil filler cap, coolant reservoir caps, etc.

    Hey guys....I did a quick search of previous posts and could not find anything. I am looking for some dress up caps for oil filler, coolant etc. I was thinking there were some reaonably priced Ford alternatives that were actually made for a mustang, and hence high volume production and lower...

    FRPP Power Upgrade package

    Ford Tuning Package.... boy, do I love mine....Shelby installed mine, and the Ford Racing (Borla) exhaust.....not too wild, not too loud, just right.....Big power increase that you can feel, but, yes, it is conservative for others. Plenty for me though. Cheers, Griffbl

    FRPP pulley and tune.

    FRPP Pulley and Tune Shelby installed the Ford Racing Exhaust and Pulley, and I calibrated it with the Ford Controller. The car is measurably stronger, but I never put it on a dyno. I really enjoy the engine tone at RPM's much better than stock, while maintaining very low noise levels at low...

    Any GT owners in Santa Fe?

    SF owners.... DM- you ought to check out Butler's place in SF! Quite a set up in Las Campanas....as for guns shops, you should definitely go to Ron Peterson's Guns in ABQ if you have time....it is a menagerie of sorts, but great fun. I have a bunch in Dallas, and when you are here, I can...

    Back in the saddle again! Thanks to all!

    Ford exhaust Thanks for the info! I am confused, however, as the Box said Ford Racing....is it just made by Borla for Ford? Thanks Mucho, Griffbl

    Back in the saddle again! Thanks to all!

    mods performed on my car... You are right as to the short throw shifter, and trans cooler....exhaust was from Ford Racing, not Borla though.....I edited my post so as to reflect your reminding me of the additional mods! Hope this finds you well!

    Back in the saddle again! Thanks to all!

    Especially to Shelby, who arranged transportation for my replacement car, finding a buyer for the salvage of my wrecked car, and for removing the lower body side stripes, adding the Ford Racing Pulley and Tune, Installing a Ford Racing Short Throw Shifter, Ford Racing Trans Cooler, and for...

    Ford Racing Exhaust

    Ditto For me also! Shelby told me the FFRP was not much louder than stock, and he was, of course, right! I LIKE it though.....not much louder at idle, and somewhat more so as you get into the power band.....Perfect for me. I also appreciate the still rather significant weight savings, (which...

    Celeb car on Ebay

    Yup, I Bought it! Shelby beat me to the punch, but I did buy the car direct from the seller....Many people have been helpful in the process, most importantly STANDJ who did a first rate PPI (per several forum members recommendation to GET a PPI, particularly on this car) AND Shelby Smith who...

    New Bumper Delete Option

    Body Color a great idea, as I am imagining how good the prototypes would look on a black car! Dumb question....if you tap something backing up, you are going to destroy the exhaust before you anything else.......I guess that is a good thing???
