    To Film 40% or maybe 100%?

    Wow, that is "all-in"! Would you mind sharing ball park $ to have your GT sealed up so thoroughly? I need to start bracing for next week's bill .

    To Film 40% or maybe 100%?

    Helpful comments, thanks all. This is the sort of experience that is leaning me towards going 100%: Yes, that is already on the list for sure. "another perspective" is an understatement, lol. Unrestored is one thing, but this Cobra guy needs his medications adjusted

    looks like OP's unexpected 5 year thread revival may have been a "pocket-dial"?

    To Film 40% or maybe 100%?

    My Tungsten Delete's appt for film and ceramic coating is getting close. I have had two other cars done in the past year and am practically in awe of how far the quality and transparency of these products has come over the years. Both were the usual 40% film cover; windshield forward, sills...

    Rally 12 dates

    I have secured the needed dates off work. This will be so much fun I am tempted to count out how many days away. Dave, about what month will the plans evolve to the point of registering participants and so on? And thank you VERY much to any and all individuals that put in the labor-of-love to...

    Congrats! - We would all very much enjoy seeing some pics of your new dream car! Not even knowing the color has me eager to learn more. I just went back through this thread to see that I didn't discuss Jon's car here, so I have to share with you how close it was to being mine. I had plane...

    RM Sotherby Amelia Island Auction results 2 GTs

    that and grungy looking valve covers, and the ad references that in 2014 it had "several minor concerns fixed" as well as "minor cosmetic repairs." That sure sounds like a rough 1800 miles! Topped off with base wheels for 363, that is for sure strong money. Gives me and Spartan strong smiles...

    Rally 12 dates

    I need to remember to look at ALL the subforums - was missing this! As a new owner eager to meet the wider community, this is huge news. I figured I'd have to wait a long time for a Rally to be in my region - this is right next door!

    Very glad to hear you have Jon's car - Just beautiful. He seemed like a great guy during my discussions with him a couple months ago. What better way for us to enjoy the upcoming spring than with new GTs : ) Do you expect to keep it all stock?

    Anyone know about this Dark Slate Grey one??

    I spoke to the sales manager at this dealership when they first listed it around Christmas. Right after they put it up, he realized it didn't have stock cats and couldn't pass emissions. He pulled the ad and then the car was at a Ford dealer for several weeks getting stock exhaust and other...

    New "Ceramic" finish protection

    That is exactly what my guy just told me. He already has the IR lights, and we are re-scheduling the GT for 1 -2 weeks from now to receive the first use (in these parts anyway) of this new version.

    New "Ceramic" finish protection

    I can speak to this topic as an end-user and car guy, but not as a technical expert. The first thing to know is that these coatings are not intended as a replacement for film, but rather for wax. They aren't going to protect from chips. They have superb UV protection. When expertly placed on...

    Vin locations?

    My car's panels all have prominently displayed stickers called Phantom Invisible Footprints Vehicle Security by 3M. Reading indicates this was a small added-cost dealer-level item. Seeing those stickers simply got me curious as to what the factory stickers look like. Very helpful, thx...

    Vin locations?

    I have searched but haven't found any better threads than this in regards to body panel VIN sticker location. My main question is where should you expect to see VIN stickers visible without disassembling anything, particularly in regards to body panels? TIA

    Preparing for a lift

    I did discuss the risk of pushing the open button while the padlock is on. Installer said it should reverse itself, but since the lock is on the opposite track from the opener, that the sideways torque before hoped-for reversal could be a bad thing. My plan is to leave the opener unplugged and...
