    Mecum auction 2006 Ford GT Red Stripe Delete

    Only 138 miles on the clock. High bid topped out at $275K. Went to "bid goes on". A 1967 GT500 Super Snake, one of a kind, brought $2.2 million. Lots of stupid money this year bringing eye watering prices. https://www.mecum.com/lots/FL0119-364469/2006-ford-gt/

    Just saw a Tesla service vehicle

    Driving around yesterday and I was stopped at a stop light and looked over at the truck next to me. I looked at the painted sign on the door of the truck and it said "Tesla Service" on it. Low and behold it was a Ford F-250 pickup. Somewhat ironic, eh?

    A dealership for used exotics here has the GTX-1 #1FAFP90S56Y400454 VIN and is claimed to have been built for Tom Piana, No. 23/500 supposedly. It's blue with 15,000 miles. Was this one of the "rescue/problem" cars or was it built prior to the problems with the company? Thanks in advance for any...

    Ron Pratte's P-51 Mustang for sale

    I was just looking for a Christmas present and went to www.controller.com and typed in P-51 and at the top of the list is Ron's "Red Dog" P-51 Mustang for sale. If it's the same quality as his cars I'm sure it's in the stratosphere as far as price goes. The FAA registry as of 2011 showed 204...

    Ford GT oil change procedure

    I have used the search function to no avail. I'm trying to locate a very detailed post from back in 2005 from Amer Speed regarding the proper step by step, 21 step process to change the oil. I believe it came out of the service manual. Any help would be greatly appreciated. RickH

    Heritage at Mecum Denver auction fails to sell

    Lot # S130, a 10,800 mile Heritage Edition failed to sell yesterday. It was bid up to $240K and "the bid goes on". Prices appeared low, as a 1991 Corvette ZR1 lot # F48 sold for $12,500 before commission. Yes the C-4's have their issues but that's cheap. Lot S141, a 2016 Shelby GT350R in red...

    New FGT base price

    I know base price has never been officially released, but it was my understanding over the previous 6 months or so the car would be around $400K. After reading some of the activity in the last day or two, it seems estimates of the base price has escalated to $450K before options. Is this the new...

    Is the collector car market topping out?

    The recent Mecum auction in Kansas City this past Saturday had a 2006 Tungsten 4 option 7,600 mile car and the bidding only reached $230,000 and the car did not sell. Granted that Mecum has raised their commissions to 10% from 8% in the past year, but it still seemed somewhat low. The Seinfeld...
