    Pics of my 2005 GT

    Yes Sir...another testimonial to the wonderfulness of the BLACK FGT's! There's been some discussion as to what's going to be more valuable going forward, the Herritage version or the BLACK. You know which way some of us lean, not that it really matters to owners of these fantastic, rolling works...

    Shadowman and his "Hot Buttons"

    Many thanks, SHADOWMAN! Have ordered a set for "Black Beauty"...should look awwwwsommmm against the black. This should be one of the better...and simpler...decorative mods yet!

    car cover waterproof?

    California Car Cover Company makes a very good waterproof one for the FGT that is thin so it folds up into a small roll and wiil easily tuck behind the seat. I use it rather than the OEM if I find myself in a nasty-weather situation.

    Updated my signature - Finally my own FGT

    I was lucky enough to acquire my second Bugatti from one of your countrymen in Copenhagen, all because of your stiff taxation rate...my good fortune, his loss. Subsequently, he divorced the wife that wouldn't leave Denmark, moved to the south of France and found a 20-year-younger long blonde...

    Attention MA, NH, & ME GT owners:

    Keep us in the loop, although we would probably bring one of the FORD-powered "HI-PO" TVR's., as the FGT is down south at the moment

    2006 Black Ford GT You Guys Are Killing Me!

    Calipers Just a suggestion but a nice subtle touch to your black car would be to adhere red "BREMBO" decals to your black calipers. I did with my car and the little hint of red against all that black of the car is a very sexy touch. If you ask Shelby nicely, he's the man to supply those decals...

    Clear Bra

    Yep...protect yourself. Speed Lingeree vinal bra over your clear shield, whether it's 3M or Venture, is smart practice if you intend to drive your Gal. It's a nasty world out there!

    Clear Bra

    The Clear Bra is fine for "bug hits" but won't protect you from stones or other flying debris, especially if you do Track Day stuff with your new car or live in an area of the country like Florida or Vegas where there is sand. Note also that the '06 cars don't have a protective grill as do the...

    Finally had a chance to take some pics of my right hook GT

    VERY, very nice!! Clearly, you are a man of good taste in your choice of exterior color for your FGT! Noticed the "side marker" safety lights...very Euro...probably a good thing to consider for a "mod" here in the States. Are they from a particular vehicle or vendor? Would like to install two on...

    AKA Blackbird by Shadowman

    "Blackbird" looks terrific...and why wouldn't it? It's an ALL BLACK FGT!!! Without doubt, the best color combo. WE DON'T NEED NO STINKIN' STRIPES!!

    Verified "Super Snake" 427 side-oiler roadster

    In addition to being an aluminum-bodied car, not fiberglass like the kit-cars, this engine was built by a famous detroit race-engine shop, to race spec, hence now de-tuned for street use as posted earlier. All goodies mentioned by Kirby V. are on the car:tranny, gauges,knock-offs...
