i kept my 911 Speedster under a thick felt-like car cover at all times so day-to-day bumps in the garage would not mar the finish. for my GT, i bought an indoor car cover that keeps dust away but is not thick enough to protect against small dings. i really bought the wrong kind and am thinking...
I was thinking about doing my own temperature testing. I am trying to figure out how to get a temp probe inside the engine bay that can measure ambient temps.
The things I wanted to test were: A. The "license plate spacer" idea (which sounds good given the huge hole sitting behind the...
Bob700: Thanks for the picture.
I wonder if there is a benefit of putting reflective material over more surface area of the underside of the clamshell (longer lifespan of the clamshell, less long term damage to paint on clamshell,etc.)?
And the opposite -- would there be any detriment to...
this afternoon, about 3:30 PM Pacific time, i got my GT on a jack for the first time since i brought it home. (thanks for all the tips on lift points !)
i had one of the rear tires off of the car when all of a sudden i feel shaking and hear rattling. i look up and see the bikes hanging on my...
for GT owners who have clear bra'd their cars, how much of the car did you cover?
i am going to do the entire front end, the rocker panels, bottom rear of the car (behind the wheels), and the headlights/foglights.
however, i am also wondering if i should do the doors on either side (for door...
I am about to clear bra my Heritage and am thinking about whether I want to peel off the number installed by the previous owner and keep an "un-numbered" car? Or should I keep the #8 that he put on?
My question to other Heritage owners -- did you number ? Why did you pick the number you chose...
i would go with my new Heritage, but i'll be in Napa on vacation. we'll see everyone when i get back. thanks for the invitation. i can't wait to meet my GT neighbors.
I agree.........i put out a few feelers (including with some of the sponsors) about Heritages & Black cars, then all of a sudden, several Heritages come up for sale. it was good to have a few options on very nice Heritage AND Black GT's. there are still lots of good low mile examples in the...
i just drove home my a 2006 Heritage. it looks real nice sitting in my garage !
my first impressions: suprisingly quiet, incredibly powerful, really stiff suspension, wonder why they put in 5th & 6th gears (LOL).
i already saw a hose that needs to be replaced -- one coming off of the rear of...
AtomicGT: i saw your post from last year regarding the Griot's rubber driveway ramps. i was thinking about buying a set so when i get my GT, i am already set. But your post set off a red flag. did you ever get them to work? if not, what did you end up doing?
if you still have them, are you...
Chip: thanks for your reply. That is why I asked before I posted a link to a GT for sale. It doesn't help getting on the wrong side of a bulletin board moderator.
But I beg to differ with you on the value of "hearsay" for cars, high end or otherwise. Given the low production volume of GT's...
Chip: let me clarify so there are no ambiguities.
let's say I see an ad for a GT on a car dealer's website or eBay that I am interested in purchasing. may i post a link to that ad asking forum members to tell me what they might know about that particular car?
or would it be more appropriate...
are board members allowed to post links to GT's for sale to solicit board member feedback & knowledge about a specific GT that is on the market?
this is quite common on several boards in which i am a member. but before I post, i thought I would ask.
given the small number of GT's...
please contact me via email ([email protected]) or cell (949 547 2719) to discuss GT's for sale in SoCal. i also sent you an email. i am looking to buy. thanks.
I just sold my '911 Speedster this afternoon, so i am close to pulling the trigger on a Ford GT. here are two more questions for the board:
1). can someone list all of the recall repair items that Ford GT's have gone through?
2). is there a time period in which Ford dealers are required to...
On the VIN sticker on a GT that was purchased and registered in California, do the words "legal for sale in California" appear? Or do they just say "complies with Federal laws"?
The reason I am asking is that I am likely going to buy a GT with less than 7,500 miles and CA has strict...
