I suppose you could just do two (one side). You'll only see one side at a time and if it's close, most folks would never notice. Unfortunately, I would know. So...I do all four as well.

No, not since Ben Keating ran the privateer Ford GT in 2019.

Mine, too--I've had two of them! Love the traditional American racing colors!

Earlier in the full video, he was admiring a 4-option white car with blue stripes owned by one of his dealer friends. Which is, of course, the “best” spec—hah! He mentioned that he would talk (off camera), about the car to his friend, also noting that, with 18,000 miles it’s a car you can...

Exactly what happened to me. Clutch pedal stuck to the floor. When the car cooled down, I pulled the clutch pedal forward and it worked again. Until the car was pushed at altitude, then the clutch got spongy again but I was able to limp it home. Even for the OEM / OEM + guys out there, I...

You can see it when the clamshell is raised, but it looks good (and OEM). The car is already tapped for the trans cooler, and I understand that originally it was going to come on the car from the factory. Ford later moved the part to the Performance catalog. But the trans cooler drops right...

I'm also a big fan of the the trans cooler. When we were tracking the cars at Utah Motorsports Campus during the FGT rally, I ended up boiling the clutch fluid. When the car cooled down, the clutch came back. But then at higher speeds (still street legal, of course :rolleyes:) at altitude...

Beautiful spec! Just PM’d you.

There’s a thread on this—someone was making new ones and offering them for sale.

Same—was so disappointed for Ben and disappointed in the obviously political outcome. But, Ford is making a big push and with teams like Proton running the mustang, hopefully we’ll get a fair shake! Very sorry to hear that Roz is in a wheel chair now. Might we see you guys at Daytona, which...

Terry, I said the same thing. And yet...here we are!

Here’s a great article about privateer teams racing GT40s in period. See; https://collectorscarworld.com/ford-gt40-the-private-teams-owners/ In 1963, Ford of America announced it was about to break a long-standing agreement amongst the ‘Big Four’ automobile manufacturers that prohibited then...

I didn’t get one. And I was intrigued as well—does anyone know more about the book?

And if you ever wanted to return it to "stock", you could always reinstall the original calipers. Sounds like Adam bought the car to drive it (as did I), but they are pretty valuable cars at this point so probably not a bad idea to bubble wrap the originals and stick 'em on the shelf.

Welcome, and congratulations! Since you're going to drive your car, you might consider getting the billet clamshell vents (painted to match). It will look totally OEM but you won't have any problems with warping or cracking, as the original plastic ones sometimes do.

Nice writeup on the 2005 Ford GT, which clocked in at #8. And, it was in the most superior livery--hah!

The LeMans hospitality was, hands down, the best corporate event I have ever been to. If they've got the same team on the job for Ford's F1 project, I'm stoked!
