FYI, put a new battery in my 06 last week (again!). Tried to buy an Optima unit from Jegs and Summit but they're on back order at both places. Eventually found a genuine Ford unit in stock here in Houston, but it cost $450 instead of $270! That Ford label must be made of gold or platinum!

I'll always remember sitting at an outdoor Cafe in Paris after the race and hearing that the officials were progressively DQ'ing the GTs, including of course Ben's GTD winner, totally bummed us all out and made me realize how political it all is.

Don't know about BJ, but I've found auction commissions are always negotiable, 5% easily attainable

Drive it, plus perform the 55k service

Likelihood of this sort of noise increases a lot if you've fitted aero screens, that trap an amazing amount of crap in the belly pans causing all kinds of rattles. I took mine off after a few weeks because I got tired of having to constantly 'de-rock' the car

Wasn't he at Le Man's one year, maybe 2017? I recall him driving a yellow New GT and hanging out in the Ford hospitality suite?

Dumb idea,but have you tried unhooking the battery for ten minutes?

53,000 mi,es on mine and apart from scheduled maintenance items all that's gone wrong has been fuel filler flap, a headlight bulb, and a side marker lamp that fell to bits. Hands-down the best supercar ever built, especially in terms of reliability.

Why are you buying? If it's purely an investment, then go for lowest miles because investors like that. If buying to drive and use as aGT should be used, mileage is irrelevant to because the cars are essentially bullet-proof. Pick the colour and options you want (BTW, blue is best) and drive the...

I think that car was a Ben B/ Andy H project

You are such a tease - this better be good!

I'm on my third splitter, super-easy job, but every replacement was a "frowny" one. I actually used one of the damaged ones on our '98 Mustang race car, it was almost a bolt-on fit!

Amazing! in Feb 2021 I sold an 1100 mile black/silver car for $325k and was super-happy!

This little jar has been loaned out to several forum members

Despite some of these comments, I found BBS to be easy to deal with. I contacted them about touch-up paint for the wheels and they gave me a bottle. The code on the bottle is Silver DSK 09.40.061S. Don't know how helpful this is.

Talked with him a couple of times when I wS building my Merlin-powered machine. A very helpful guy.we planned to ship my car out to Big Dog T some point to compare our builds, but some lucky Dutch guy ended up buying mine at Amelia last year before we could ever make it happen. The more...

On my fourth battery but this most recent one has lasted because I now use a CTek. The main indicator of a dying battery on my car was random gauges crapping out, but fit the new Optima and, voila, they all come back to life.

My God, it’s ugly though!

I planned on putting in a five-speed when I bought mine, but they don’t need it; four speeds are enough. The only question is what gearbox is in it now? It’s an early car so you should have the terrible Moss gearbox with no synchro on first but.....you say it’s got a 4.2 motor, so maybe they put...

Yuo’re a man of impeccable taste Ron (although I think the coupes are prettier)
