As Jerry Seinfeld has once said, (paraphrasing) "You can't drive money". These cars really are artwork to enjoy. That is priceless. If you do enjoy it and do proper due diligence while maintaining a long term holding position, speaking from experience, money can be made but should not be the...

ford gt 1625, Thank you for your honest reply, it is important. You made your decision based on your situation. I would like to do half as well as you have. Not only did you make a return of 8.26% on your investment, you also were priveledged to have had the opportunity to have been the first...

Jax, you sound like your in good shape! With the great help from everyone here I am going to buy the BendPak HD-9. The differences I see with the one you are looking at, the HD-9xw, is basically just longer, by about 50 inches, which I am glad in your case, can accomodate. I am building a...

My last statement didn't come out right. I never meant to imply that the pros would throw parts at it to correct the problem. The pros here would be the LAST ONES to throw parts at it. I can however, see dealer services throw parts at it with our money.

Without a proper resolve of this difficult trouble shooting issue, in my opinion, future buyers of the FGT will bid down the buy price accordingly to reflect the uncertainty over the seemingly staggering amount of time and trouble, not to mention money to correct the problem. Gosh, every time...

Just awful. Having lived in Arizona for a few years I would have gotten the heck out of there before the storm hit. After all, 60-80 mph winds with tents as structures. No way that was going to hold. They all knew that this major storm was coming. Same goes for the Barrett Jackson. My nerves...

This entire thread gives me NIGHTMARES and I haven't bought my GT yet (need to build bigger garage first). From what I gather this CERTAINLY should be a recall item by Ford. Trouble shooting these issues is a major problem and after only a couple years of use with limited mileage and great care...

BlackIce, appreciate the experiences concerning the rolling jacks and I will incorporate them with my plans but I am disappointed to here how they have progressed. In my case, the usage will be very limited in a personal garage so I hope that I will be OK there. Never would have suspected that...

JCSB, really hated to hear your story and hope that you are able to make the necessary corrections without too much trouble. Your Son deserves plenty of kudos for watching out for you.

standj Thanks for the headsup on the drip pans. One more question do either of you happen to have the optional jacks to lift/remove tires & wheels? I do seem to like the idea of them.

Thanks for the pictures! Very talented of you to be able to do that at the drop of a pin. I would be totally clueless as to how to do that. Computer illiterate I am. Really looks great all the way around!! Your rides are way too awesome!! I only wish it was spring time here and that I was...

Really appreciate the effort. I have to sign off for a couple hours but I look forward to checking back!

To be sure that I understand you correctly when you say not symmetrical would that be because the power side ramp is in a fixed location and that only the opposite runway can be adjusted? Also, just so I can be sure, are the dimensions I stated at 116 3/4 wide the same as the one you have? And...

Thanks alot for the replies. They are very helpful. When you say the wide setting, as I look at the specs on the lift, that would put about 44 inches between the runways. The runways are 19 inches each so the total would be 78 inches. As I look at the specs for the HD-9, its maxiumum width...

I live in the Chicago area and this spring will be building a new 4 car garage and installing a 4 post car lift. At some point in 2010 I will also be looking to purchase a GT to add to what I already have. I am looking at a Bend Pak HD-9 as my choice of lifts. I do not know EXACTLY how much...
