    My GTs

    Preparing for winter, cleaning, polishing, air in tires etc. Gives me time to go over these beauties and especially admire the details! My 05, original owner ( of both) , 10,000 miles and like new. Thrill of driving with ford performance upgrade, no traction control, great on long trips! (...

    Best Years FGT? what issues

    Is it only the front actuator that leaks? How about the rear wing ( which can tip down while sitting) and all the “ other” hydraulics?

    Best Years FGT? what issues

    Though 2020 models had updates, when I was at MM in 2019 seeing my car in production, the guide mentioned there were updates or changes through the production. For instance he mentioned the transmission coolers were enlarged somewhere in 2018-19. Prices will fluctuate. Occasionally I consider...

    New headlights for 2005/6MY Ford GT

    Since original style no longer available. These with exposed CF are beautiful, but different appearance and lighting therefore need to be replaced as a pair. Considering installing them immediately, keep originals for future. Question, will originals still deteriorate over time in storage ?

    Mighty Heritage

    That is way over BAT money. It was predicted 05-06s would someday pass NFGT pricing! I never would have believed it! To think I almost bought a second GT,a brand new heritage in 06 from a dealer below sticker! ( wife probably had something to do with it!)

    Ford GT Rally XIV - Who's in?

    Looks like going to be great event! I have previous plans, was kind of short notice for me. Went to GT 40 reunion in Pittsburgh this year ( drove car there and back). Love these rallies and specially seeing old friends through the years! I attended first one in 2006. Coming up on 20 year reunion!!

    Children's cancer event - spun my GT

    Interesting thought. I drove my car to Pittsburgh GT 40 reunion. I participated in “ parade laps” to raise money for local charity. Fun track , speeds “ limited” to 80 mph. No passing. If there was an accident ( there wasn’t), wonder how insurance companies would treat it!
