    Factory hood and hatch shocks

    yes, I have read about the factory struts, and have suffered the hood and hatch hitting me in the head for awhile! (LOL). However I am a stickler for original factory parts. I have not even installed these new pieces yet as I do not drive the car that much any more, so may not even install them!

    Factory hood and hatch shocks

    I did order from my local dealer but it was a hassle, had to provide a copy of the title and go through a vetting process

    Finally got a set of factory Ford front and rear hood shocks, took quite a long time but am happy to have the factory parts for my 2006

    Battery, gauges and the manual

    always remove the neg first, I do not think that a ford gt has much memory so a stick in the cigar lighter is not necessary

    New headlights for 2005/6MY Ford GT

    It's a Ford! Who would have thought that parts would not be available? Crazy. If it was a 2006 Porsche GT2 everything would still be available! I bought a new front splitter years ago just in case, thankfully have not had to use it.

    New headlights for 2005/6MY Ford GT

    the tooling is the critical thing, if that can be found the lights can be made reasonably. Ford can contract with them to rerun 500 sets and put into their inventory

    New headlights for 2005/6MY Ford GT

    I think that Ford should take it upon themselves to make replacement parts for this iconic car

    New headlights for 2005/6MY Ford GT

    back to 1948. SOME parts are harder to get but most readily available. For a 2006 ANYTHING is instantly available. Knock a fender off and smash the headlight? NO PROBLEM!!!

    New headlights for 2005/6MY Ford GT

    When I bought my FORD, it was the same price as a new Porsche turbo. I am in the Porsche business but always wanted a Ford GT since I was 14 (in 1966 when they won lemans first second and third of coruse) and figured that since it was a FORD no problem getting parts and service at any time, and...

    look for a/c compressor or someone that can rebuild?

    Ford has to have one, standard equipment on different Fords, had to have mine replaced early on due to leaking

    Carfax repot question

    I guess I am lucky in that my car has never been registered, still have the original MSO signed over to me from the selling dealer, so no car fax and no confusion if I was ever to sell it. Too many of these early GTs have exchanged hands many times, even with very few miles on them, but as long...
