Since our beloved GT's are turning over 11-13 years old is their a recommendation on when we should be changing the fuel tank and other important related components?

There is no service interval for the fuel tank. It’s not a fuel cell that requires service or replacement. It’s a rotomolded plastic part. If it’s not leaking, you’re good.

That’s good to know.

For an "exotic", the GT is remarkably mundane regarding service/maintenance.

Everybody who swaps out the fuel tank in their old GT automatically qualifies for a new Ford GT!!!!!
