    Getting ready order lifts: width recommendations?

    With the rear tires hanging off both sides (an inch), backing it on would be difficult. I'm not a kid any more (will be 67 on Monday), but still agile enough to hurdle over the transmission tunnel.

    Getting ready order lifts: width recommendations?

    I have the BendPak, double wide. I have a 20x20 garage, and didn't want to have 8 posts in it. The wider track, is the right side, so I put the GT on that side, and the rear tires, if the car is perfectly centered, hang over about an inch on each side. I have to exit the passenger side (hump...

    Billet clamshell vents

    If you don't drive your GT, you don't need these, if you do drive it, you need them. I had mine shipped directly to Rich, he smoothed and painted them for me, they're a perfect match. Clips won't melt and snap off, the plastic won't warp, due to heat. I will say, you'll add about a pound or...

    Hennessey upgrade?

    I have the GT Guy pulley and tune, and cross pipe. The cross pipe is definitely the icing on the cake, gives the car the sound it needs, while at the same time, lowers the temperature in the engine bay considerably, and it's significantly lighter in weight!!!

    Ford vs Ferrari movie

    So the Greenwich Concours is hosting a premiere party tonight, I RSVP'd and will attend with my wife. Around noon today, the head of the Concours called me, and asked if I'd like to take my GT to the theater and park out front. That would mean taking the car down off the lift, driving it 5...

    Secondary market.

    While filling up the GT yesterday, someone asked me "what's it worth"? My answer was, doesn't make it difference, it's not for sale. Yes, I knew he was asking for the market value, but if it's not for sale, who cares? Then again, if someone offered me stupid money for the car, I'd sell it...

    Custom Side vent clearance sale

    Love mine, but they're not the customs sides, they're the black, and had the centers painted by Rich. Car looks OEM, but now, I don't have to worry about warping or clips breaking off!!! Great upgrade!!!!

    Electrical gremlins

    Funny that you should mention that. I have had the same problem for awhile. I just spoke with Rich Brooks last week, and he told me he came across a similar problem with a car last week. My turn signals also don't work for about 5 minutes, and then come up. The radio, windows, come up in...

    What are the 2 long air vent strips called?

    I had Petunia ship them directly to Rich (GT Guy), who smoothed them and painted them, they look great, and won't warp, or have the clips break!! Do it, and just put the OEM ones away!
