Now that I have the car, (I just took my friend for a ride and he had to change his drawers afterwards) which books are the best ones or one you guys recommend? Or do I have to load my cart at Amazon with all of them?

I have Blue & Orange...The History of Gulf in Motorsports, Ford GT....Then & Now, the SVT book (Coffee Table) Ford GT "The Supercar Returns"
I prefer Ford GT Then & Now to all of them.

In hindsight, perhaps we should have had more "Ford GT Team History" printed.
There were only 1000 copies printed, but thanks to the urging of DBK, we printed 200 more for GT owners.

I know a few hit e bay a while back, but now that GTs are changing hands often, it would be nice for new owners to at least look at it.

I'm not giving up my 3 copies tho. :box:

Rich you hoarder you....... Come on sell one copy for $750 to one of the new guys...... Hell, for that price somebody can by my second unsigned one. The signed one - well thats a different story :biggrin

Rally 1 was unique and the tour of the Wixom plant and other sites were a perfect set only completed by the book.

[see Rich - I do value your contribution]
