    Did Ford consider the failure of the GT40 MK III before they build the Ford GT

    If that pic is really a MK III, I believe the car has the incorrect front end on it. I wonder how many 3s were converted back to MK Is and now wondering if an original 3 wouldn't be worth a little more.... mardyn

    3 gauges failing at once?

    Again, I'm not really interested in Ford paying for anything.... I just want some help to identify the cause of failures, a solution to the problem and then release or authorize Autometer to make the repairs or sell replacements. I'm willing to pay my own way, but I'm not paying now only to...

    The insides of the Ford GT transaxle...

    Man, I'd love to have a set of those 3.90:1 gears in my car.... I remember way back in the olden days, I switched form 3.23s to 3.91s in my '71 Challenger.... it was night a day difference with no other changes. (and that car only had about 300 HP) I can only imagine how it would feel in the...

    3.90 ratio thoughts?

    I'd love to have the 3.90:1 gear set in mine too, but unless I I have T/A problems (doubtful), I'll probably just leave well enough alone... I'm sure it would make a huge difference for my driving style, but also is not an easy install, cost vs smile factor, pros and cons... How much ET would...

    Ford gt Motorcycle

    Saw a Heritage (Gulf) themed custom chopper at Bike Week several years ago, it was pretty damn nice, but it was a one off deal. Got some pics on my other computer, I'll post one up next time I have it fired up. mardyn

    Stripes?

    I'm interested in changing mine Red/white to Red/black as well.... my thought was to do it with high grade vinyl, but not sure how to handle the rear vents. Any pics or 'chops out there? mardyn

    Texas Leo's and window tint

    Got pulled over one time in my '69 GT350 about 10 years ago.... Texas State Trooper said my side window tint was too dark. Wrote me a warning ticket and let me go. No issues since and the tint remains the same. mardyn

    Jay Leno & The Tonight Show...end of an era

    "In what country is the Panama Canal located?" "Uhhh...China?" LMAO! I remember when Jay took over for Carson.... I was happy then, but sad now to see him leave before he's really ready. Will not be watching Conan, he's too much of a spaz for me, but I will be following Jay to his new time...

    anyone uses the SCT LiveWire device on the GTs?

    I've got one in my car too... either I'm too stupid, or it's too complex... 'cause mine won't register either. I was able to upload the new custom fuel/timing maps with it and that function works great, but otherwise, I've just given up on it for data. mardyn

    Love the T/A Challenger... even though the ad is composed in something other than English, I can almost make out and understand the whole text. Very cool. mardyn

    Sorry for the confusion....

    Oil Change

    I need a clarification on this part. I believe if you do this procedure, the engine will indeed start.... Shouldn't step 1 & 2 be reversed? Either way, be careful. mardyn

    two questions ?

    Happened on my car one time after a long period of inactivity.... battery had enough voltage to start the engine, but the oil pressure gauge did nada. I charged the battery with the supplied "maintainer" and has been good ever since. mardyn
