    Ford GT Fire system

    Kendall w/ Cooltech installed the engine compartment fire supression system on our GT also and it looks as if OEM. Very nice looking system.

    Salvage Re-Built FORD GT Value?

    Not a dumb question. Most people have never dealt with buying or insuring a salvaged vehicle. I recently did. My insurance company never asked for a copy of the title, only a copy of the registration which does not mention the salvage status. I asked my insurance agent what would happen...

    Do the math before buying a wrecked GT

    I would have no trouble whatsoever doing 200 mph with a repaired frame if it was repaired correctly. Race cars have frames repaired due to crash damage all the time! My question was can a GT with frame damage be repaired "correctly"? I don't recall ever reading a thread on this forum about a...

    Documentary about building the gt

    Update UPDATE I received this email from Natalie @ Beyond Productions: They (Discovery) sold this title back in the day, but it looks like it's been discontinued for over a year. If we have the asset, we can put it up for manufacture-on-demand sales. The GT fans can let their voices be...

    Advice On Pushing The Limits Of The GT

    With a stock GT I have experienced a strong tendency to understeer. Oversteer however can occur any time you want it to. My advice is to take baby steps and get to know your car. Be very careful with cold tires.

    Natalie emailed me that she would try to find a direct contact at Discovery. I believe this will be resolved shortly. I will post the Discovery contact info as soon as I get it. That is, if I get it. :willy

    I just got this response from Natalie @ Beyond Productions: Hi Gill Man, I was thinking how on earth is everyone getting my email address. Would you do me a favour and post this. Thank you for enquiring about 'Rebuilding a race car legend'. I have talked to our Distribution department and...

    Tire warning

    I have found the Goodyear F1's to work pretty well. At least they do on a warm day once you get some heat into them. If the weather or the tires are cold they can be scary. Another plus for using the Goodyear F1's (at the Texas Mile) is they were the tire used by Ford for Vmax testing...

    Tire warning

    I think there may be a good chance that ALL of the currently available Goodyear rear tires for the GT are at least a couple years old or older. I recently received some from The Tire Rack and they were 4 years old. My guess is that Goodyear has not produced a batch of these tires for some...

    1965 Cobra for sale (KMP 304)

    Big block Cobra's are absolutely wicked accelerating from 0 - 60+! If you think the GT can get out of control easy try a Cobra at full throttle. Things can get interesting fast. This particular car is a very very nice example and IMO would be a perfect choice for someone in the market for...
