Took my 06 off the lift to change oil in 18. Love both—like my children I would never pick one over the other .

For me it's the one with the dual exhaust tips.

The multi car picture (Ford GT, Saleen S7, Mustang) was posted on a wall at the Saleen Headquarters in Corona

Oh, if you're referring to the Rocky poster, that was in their main garage area. But upon closer look, I noticed that it's simply a cutout of the Ford GT that someone pasted on the original movie poster, so the original poster does not exist with the GT. I thought it was funny and neat that they did that.

And a little backstory on the Saleen Prototype car in the poster / movies.

You can take the images from the internet & any decent sign shop will make you a poster any size.

Used the Ford GT front sorting trays to quickly transport holiday cards to the post office. Kidding. But don't the vents look like a bit like a sorting machine?

Happy Holidays everyone!

In actual Ford GT updates, had a friend help install a back up camera on my GT. Replaced the factory mirror with a mirror / display unit in the factory rear view location. Wiring run above headliner. Camera attached to rear bumper frame extension with custom fabricated 2024 aluminum mounting bracket.

Will do a full write up soon and put it in the tech section along with photos.

Moulin Ford GT Car Show - Newport Beach

Woke up my older son and had a chance to take him and my '06 baby out to a Sunday morning show today before swim practice. Had a blast and will post more photos up in a main thread. Couple teasers. It was a nice mix of old and new!

End of January, and a lucky day with perfect car show weather! Only in Southern California...

Today in my GT, sweet Charlotte and I did what few GT owners have ever done before... we used the child seat restraint system! It’s not just for looks and bragging rights, folks... it works!!

The looks and laughs I got from people at red lights were priceless. The smile and wave of an infant was the last thing they were expecting when we pulled along side!

This is amazing. You motivated me to do the same for my little guy. I have the same car seat too!
