    2005 FGT new parts for sale

    Hi folks, I sold my Ford GT some years ago (really bad decision BTW) and with my wife and I moving to a new home it seems time to sell off a few things that have been in my garage since then: 1. Ford GT factory windshield. The story behind this one is that when I purchased my 'used' (200 mile on...

    Got my Ford GT Recall Notice Today for Air Bag Replacement

    I received the recall notice a few days back. Mine is #899 and got the double whammy. I'm not sure whether to get it serviced asap, or wait as I'm considering selling it and a subsequent owner may want to deal with it themselves. I live in the Bay Area (near Stanford U.) and am not sure whether...

    got my first chevy!

    Great purchase. Just happen to have one myself. It's a red one also with an LS7. Potentially the first one in the U.S. at least with the LS7 and so the owner/builder had to hand-construct the headers and other parts to get it all to fit it in there. Now ordering the car ready for the LS7 (rather...

    Straight Chassis

    You are either fibbing and have skills with mirrors and Photoshop or are a brilliant engineer and tech :) Remarkably complex undertaking and excellent work. Congratulation on the progress so far. It looks like you're 75% complete. As an engineer in a different field that usually means only...

    THE Tire Thread

    It's coming to be tire time for me. I have a 2005 with 3,400 miles on it (stop the laughing and finger pointing please...). Have there been any updates on tire perspectives? I took my customary long look through the TireRack listing and can'd seem to find anything. I was hoping to see a better...

    Spray On 3 M Shield?

    Ahh too bad it's not received better reviews. I recently saw an ad for the spray-on and thought it would be something I could do for my Ultima GTR. I really don't want to spend the $$ to have a custom application of the film for that car. There are no pre-made patterns for that model (there...

    Muffler replacement recommendation needed

    I had our famous hand model (Shadowman) install an Accufab x-pipe some time back on my 2005. We agreed that for heat reduction (and classic looks) that wrapping them would be wise as well. I wasn't wild about the sedate sound of the OEM muffler but the real goal of the transplant was heat...

    The guy who designed the 1967 Shelby

    Thank you for referencing the article. It was excellent. Seems like a wonderful man, who excelled because he moved to a great country. V

    New GT Owner

    Congratulations on the car. You will definitely love it. It's unlike any other. Great color - and brand new too. Shelby must have his time-machine working again. Oh, and don't let these guys tell you that only the red ones are fast. But take your time finding out.. V

    Changing the oil

    Oil change update - any new oil specs? Folks, I'm planning on doing my own oil change on the FGT. First time for me, though there is a great deal of valuable info here so I suspect it will be a just a bit less complicated than cold fusion or a 5-minute remotely executed sky crane landing on...

    2013 GT500 base price $54,200, online configurator is here!

    Other than the FGT, I've been a foreign car guy forever. Germans for sport, Japanese for mobility appliances. So I am shocked that I am falling in love with the Boss Mustang 302 with the Laguna Seca (or something) package. What is happening to me? Do I have to get rid of my Porsche? Damn these...
