    New Owners: Insure Axle Bolt Upgrade has been Performed!

    LOL, I used to wire tie cap screws on heavy equipment (compressors, turbine gensets, etc) back in the 90s. Doing it correctly is a true art form.

    What Wax Product do You Use on the Red Paint?

    Looking for a spray on solution if at all possible…..and 2 point deduction for Howard :)

    What Wax Product do You Use on the Red Paint?

    Or could be true on other colors as well, if they are non-metallic. I have been using a less expensive spray on wax for both my cars for several years. On the metallic paint Diablo, it works great…….on the FGT, it leaves spots and looks greasy. Anyone have a spray on wax they recommend for...

    Looking for a low mileage GT

    Congrats new owner, it is a fun car to own and even more fun to drive.

    Looking for a low mileage GT

    Well there were pluses and minuses to the car I bought. Most of you would have run away from a driver grade car. 29k miles, lots of modifications (probably over $30k worth).....most of which I like, Speedhut gauge set, replaced front bumper because a previous owner bumped into something (not...

    Looking for a low mileage GT

    Remember that day.....watching every car sell for more than $300k, even a couple that looked sketchy on TV put my butt into gear knowing I had limited time left before I was priced out of the market. I had missed several cars in the proceeding 4 months (they were mostly 15-20k mile cars for...

    Is this normal for a high mileage car

    Yeah, way more than normal chipping. And clear film was around then......but it was problematic and didn't age well as I found out on another car. Make sure you understand the mods before going ahead. Price seems high, but not too many options below $400k the last time I looked.

    Really? IMO a Horrible Appraisal

    I would guess you aren’t getting enough exposure. Very sure there will be a buyer if you can reach those who see value in saving $75k-$100k over 3k mile cars. If you haven’t already, you should consider ads on other high end enthusiast sites (I’m not an auction guy).

    Really? IMO a Horrible Appraisal

    Not sure what you are getting at, the YouTube in question was posted 5 days ago, the co-part listing was 2 days ago. Will agree the VIN numbers are very close to each other and less than 10 digits from mine. The way these things go, the wreck was probably a couple months ago at least.

    Makes Hagerty look like clowns.....

    Really? IMO a Horrible Appraisal

    4 days ago.....did the market crash and we just didn't hear about it.

    Really? IMO a Horrible Appraisal

    so this evaluation just looks wrong for a car the guy said was clean.

    Really? IMO a Horrible Appraisal

    So do you think the owner purchased the billet ones? His 1,700 VIN# says he didn’t get them from Ford.

    Really? IMO a Horrible Appraisal

    Just saw this video. Original owner, 31k miles, tasteful mods.......$275k to $300k Now is it just me, or would there be a line of buyers going around the block to buy it at this price? Aren't salvage cars pretty close to this?

    Finally Did it....Ordered a Jeep Wrangler.....With a V8

    Ordered in mid-October, still waiting. Very Bronco-like LOL

    Looking for a low mileage GT

    Retail buyers are always a pain to deal with……picky and many unknowledgeable (think of BAT commenters), slow to make decisions, so many times underfunded, come up with lame excuses (my wife won’t let me buy it)…..the list goes on and on. And honestly, I am all of those :) (Except the wife part...

    OK, post some pictures, a test drive video, and her WifeFax and we can start the bidding.

    Looking for a low mileage GT

    Go compare it side-by-side with other so-called red colors like Ferrari Rosso corsa and the Corvette and you will see how much better the FGT looks.
