    Battery dead,doors won't open

    If the battery is under 11 volts the trickle charger probably won't help. Go with Ralphie's suggestion and jump with another battery. Or add a known good battery and trickle charge the both of them. I have revived a Ford GT battery by charging this way.

    check out this 1965 Ford GT being sold by RM Auctions

    I guess I should of checked the registry before I spoke. I read somewhere Dean was restoring his, and then seen a picture of that awlful green no. 111 car, being put together, and thought it was Dean's. I wonder how much of the orginal car they had to start with. Hopefully not just a vin number!

    I have not driven it basically because I have to many cars. But here's the story. I had another GT/CS at the time I bought this one. This car is a C code (289 2V) but had a 390 in it when I got it. The owner wanted the 390 back, so I pulled it and gave it back. I started to put a 427 in but...
