    Chris Svensson

    Working with Chris on the GT program was a real treat - such an enthusiastic, helpful and caring man. We shared the unusual interest in the combination of Fords and Porsches - probably because they are both well engineered cars. I will miss Chris a bunch!

    Jim Dunham Brings Ford GTs Back to Life

    It's alot of lightweight actions but really it's the sum of the parts that gets the weight out. The engine itself is certainly a big chunk but other things contribute such as no LTR, no SC pump, no coolant lines front to rear for the SC, No HVAC, no wipers, no air bags, no RCM, no stereo or...

    Silver Wheel paint code?

    Correct, which helped us understand what we need to do to replicate it. We did a special mix and gave it a go. Not perfect but really close. Still hoping to hear back from Cetelon (who actually supplies the paint or might have even painted the wheels according to their website). We did a run...

    Silver Wheel paint code?

    Heard back from BBS: The original silver is, unfortunately, not a single color. It is a multi-stage process; the 2 color stages and gloss clear combine for the overall effect. The final top silver coat is/was manufactured by a German company called Cetelon ( http://www.cetelon.de/). Their part...

    Silver Wheel paint code?

    I will contact BBS for sure. We have the wheel now at a paint lab up in Howell. I am having analysis done to figure out what we have and how to replicate. Not giving up yet.

    Silver Wheel paint code?

    It certainly will be a challenge. I have now tried 5 different silvers and it's not even close. The metallics are all too big. Shelbyelite is correct, quicksilver is not even close. Duplicolor has a "Ultra Silver T191" but again, the metallics are to large. This does however, look fairly...

    Silver Wheel paint code?

    I have a gallon can of "Quick Silver" and may do a test spray out. I swear it's the right silver for the frame and wheels.....

    Silver Wheel paint code?

    Does anyone know what the paint code is for the Ford GT factory BBS optional wheel? I have a theory that it is the same as Quick Silver and that it is also the same as the frame silver. Help appreciated. Jim
