What have you done with your new Ford GT?


On my 80th Birthday Yesterday an Old Friend came to see me and had decided he wants to stay because I am A GT Guy! He told me this morning “I’ll stick with these GT’s and you can have the BIG one, I’ll follow You”! We had a little Breakfast snack then I uncovered my Girl and he went wild! Merry Christmas Friends! I’m Blessed! I started a new Chapter in my Life this morning and it’s not going to be about an OLD MAN moving slowly! Hang On My GT Friends, We’re Going To Move Fast And Have Even More Fun!

I see you have your calendar handy so you can remember what day it is. Once you retire, every day is a Saturday, so it's hard to keep track anymore.

First local show since Ian devastated the area. Most photographed car by far. Won the presidents award.

Here's some shots from a 2018 Houston Car Show, with Tomy's car the main attraction. Also my happy Grandson with his model Tomy sent home to him. Still the best Ford GT Statesman out there.

I wish he'd stop racking up miles on my next car. lol

It’s um, in the shop. Going on two weeks now. So instead of 3400 miles only at 1400. And some snowy days. Waste gate seems to be dumping boost on moderate acceleration. I can make a little tune with the pshooing sound it makes by controlling the gas.

Sitting next to mine but I just needed an oil change. I need to go pick it up.

Seriously, I sent it there for Bryan at Sanderson to take a final look at it before the warranty expired. Nothing to report so I had him change the oil. Leaving it there in case I can make it to Barrett Jackson. Drive it around Scottsdale with Chip and Charley. Shipping it back after. Unless a surprise Spring rally happens out there. Which I doubt but a man can dream.
 
You guys haven't figured it out yet? Guess who recently got married?

On February 4, the "Cars on Fifth" car show in Naples, FL attracted some 700 cars. 3 Ford GT's among the 700. From left to right, Elliot Hoffman, Rich Stomp and Brian Stormer GT's.
