    West Houston FGT Owners, I Need a Small Favor

    Won’t hurt to compare the little painted bracket to the SC (the engine braces have been replaced by the fancy aircraft looking ones) but not sure if I would get the confirmation I’m looking for. But ultimately, ANYTHING would look better than black.

    West Houston FGT Owners, I Need a Small Favor

    They came up in my conversation with BBS and they use the same paint code that gets mentioned the most.

    West Houston FGT Owners, I Need a Small Favor

    As many know, I want to re-paint my wheels back to silver and no one has ever been sure what the paint code was. After numerous discussions with people, including BBS, I bought a bottle of the consensus opinion and painted a small bracket with it. Can anyone spare the time for me to come over...

    FGT rescued

    Question for you, would you be able to find out what the paint code ProFormance used to paint these? I want to repaint my black wheels, reached out to Larry (who responded immediately but did not know) and ProFormance who didn’t respond. I’m not in a position to ship the wheels off. If you...

    New headlights for 2005/6MY Ford GT

    I’m also in the “don’t drive it at night camp”, and indeed I have only driven it once that way in 3.5 years. But since I’m in an inspection area, I do have to have working headlights. So I would appreciate some availability even at $12,000 per pair.

    eBay crashed GT sale

    Seems unlikely since we now know about what was paid for it. But insurance companies do make mistakes in judgment. Last year, a teen T-boned my daily driver. It was worth about $12k at the time. The insurance company wanted to fix it which the Ford dealer thought was crazy. They spent...

    Looking for a High Mileage GT!

    True, when I bought mine, I was open to a lot of things because I was on a pretty strict budget. I considered a 90k mile car in Canada that had hail damage (fixed), a couple of cars with massive modifications, cars with minor bumps, a car in Hawaii…..The only cars I drew the line on were cars...

    eBay crashed GT sale

    Assuming this is the car from the original post, shocking that the ask is $336k on that…..you could buy a non wrecked one for that or less.

    Looking for a High Mileage GT!

    What other conditions would you accept and what are you thinking budget wise? I ask because everyone knows what sub 1,000 mile cars sell for, but there is a HUGE spread in values for high mile cars because there are more variables.

    Clamshell bumpers

    This is what You did too, there is a comprehensive thread on it if you search……I paid like $2 for the fix (3 years and counting).

    Looking for a low mileage GT

    On my CTEK, when my battery is OK, the first 3 lights show up within a minute, then over the next day or two I get 3 more yellow lights then a green light or two……my setting is just the car icon in that case

    Ford Racing Exhaust

    Borla made that exhaust for Ford so you can still buy that one....to be honest though, I think there are better aftermarket options so look around. On the header to exhaust side, I have the Ford cat delete system, and it makes the car sound like the gates of hell opening.....not for everyone...

    New Ford Issues straining my life long loyalty

    Yeah, I was waiting for someone to bring up the poster child for the clusterFord era of the 2020s. So many issues ordering them....and suspiciously, dealer orders show up in the meantime and they turn into Barrett-Jackson auctioning to the highest bidder. So people can rag on Stallantis, but...

    Anybody Experiment With Gated Shifters?

    LOL……a zombie thread I don’t even remember starting. Less than a year later, I bought my gated manual Lamborghini Diablo Roadster, then my FGT 6 years later. Now having owned both for awhile, I don’t want a gated shifter FGT. It is great in the Diablo because it works better as a cruiser than...
