Too bad they ruined it with a #7. Everyone knows #5 is the correct and proper # :thumbsup

#9 was on the 1968 Gulf GT that won LeMans

#6 was on the 1969 Gulf GT that won LeMans

Ford used the #6 in all the brochures and show cars...

Why is #5 correct? Is it personal preference or an inside joke?

I say we all pitch in and send it back to Texas where it came from.:rofl

Spirit has a "big" yard - hell he can even bury it when it shows up as a gift :cheers

#5 is my Heritage and was on the Rally I banners, so it's an inside joke ;-)
5 is before 6 and 9 so mine is faster. :thumbsup

No contamination allowed at the Ranch.:thumbsdow

I vote for a burial at sea in the Gulf of Mexico - seems appropriate to me.:thumbsup

its so unfortunate to see people put so much work into something that turned out soooooo tacky.:frown

maybe we should pitch in a few bucks buy it and put it out of its misery. or paint it some less obnoxious color like ... Mary K pink.:biggrin
