    Photos of the day we bought our Ford GT's.

    It was a red 4 option 06’ located near Ft Myers. I recall from pics it has a minor chip in paint on front fascia area but I never went to look at it.

    By the way, it’s a three option car. Has standard wheels which I’m noticing seem to be pretty rare. Almost every GT I see posted has the optional wheels.

    Photos of the day we bought our Ford GT's.

    It took me until July 16, 2020 to realize my dream. Flashback to earlier days I was fortunate enough to be running Eatons supercharger business through this program as a supplier of the Lysholm supercharger for these cars. Many challenges with this project and working in the automotive world is...

    Air Filter Replacement - Part 2 (AKA 2,700 miles doesn't mean "new" on a 15 year old car)

    Pretty sure it’s back with the original owner.

    Air Filter Replacement - Part 2 (AKA 2,700 miles doesn't mean "new" on a 15 year old car)

    The trunk liner wouldn’t quite fit flush. I’ve had good luck with Odyssey on other cars but this just didn’t quite fit.

    Air Filter Replacement - Part 2 (AKA 2,700 miles doesn't mean "new" on a 15 year old car)

    Now I understand all the messages about low mileage / "new" 15 year old cars requiring some maintenance. My 05' GT which I purchased from 2nd owner in July with only 2,700 miles. Planned a simple air filter replacement on Sunday and ran in to this mouse house. No telling when this happened...

    Air filter change

    Thanks for your help. I just learned that this morning in a cal with the local Ford dealer. The part number on the part had a YF1U prefix which is the engineering number and explains why it showed as not a good number on line. I went with the Motorcraft air filters. Any negatives on those...

    Air filter change

    I bought from an individual. Luckily all the “stuff” was on the upside of the filter so it never got into the engine. I just don’t know how any air got through. I did notice my air box only has one rubber grommet and there are two posts. Looks like it should have one on each. I checked on...

    Air filter change

    Good thing I checked this out. I guess just because a car only has 2,700 miles doesn’t mean it doesn’t need maintenance after 15 years. The plenum was just about full of mouse housing materials. Can’t believe how good the car ran....will be better now. If I can figure out how to add pictures I will.

    Direct from Autometer. Got the boost and fuel gauge. Did it myself with lots of blue tape and advice from the forum. Turned out great. Just have to be patient.

    Air filter change

    So are there 2 filters?

    Air filter change

    Probably a dumb question from a new owner but I have not found on the forum. I just completed my oil change successfully and now want to change the air filter. Is it located in the box between the engine and rear of car? Any trick to getting it out?

    New Owner Three Rivers, MI

    Thanks for adding me to the group. Just purchased my dream 05’ FGT in July. 3 options (std wheels) and 2,700 miles. I’ve wanted one of these since I was running Eatons supercharger business and we supplied Ford with the Lysholm superchargers for the GT program. Loving the car. Have completed the...
