    Gauge Initials

    I can't tell you what it is, just what it isn't. It can't be 'ol OCD EP. If it was, the letters would be done with a labeler, or a stencil, a laser perhaps, or something that would be approximately perfect. And then you'd have to check all the other ones to see that they're exactly the same...

    Barrett-Jackson GT Forum Dinner - 2009

    Gaping maw I thought twice about buying the horrid thing, taking all of the gold parts off and sending them to that 'Get Money For Your Old Gold' service on TV. I wonder if they ever received an exhaust manifold?? The owner likely would have gotten a better bid at the Chicago Merc.

    Barrett-Jackson GT Forum Dinner - 2009

    Many thanks Chip, for putting together tonight's dinner. It was a real pleasure meeting many of great people that are part of this family.

    Do you have a transmission cooler?

    This seems like one of those odd S.A.T. questions like: Do you walk to school or carry a lunch? or; Is it closer to New York or by bus? I noted that I have a CoolTech, have had no clutch failure, but I bought it for the sake of the transmission (and c'mon, they're cool and prevent that...

    Ford GT bodyshell

    It does, thank you. Any chance there is a video out there of the GT/hydro-forming process. I'd love to see it all in action.

    Sad news, my GT all burned

    It's at times like this that the statement, 'it's just a car' becomes so poignant. I'm very sorry for your loss but happy that no one was injured.

    Ford GT Utility Tray

    I just received and installed mine. Thank you for the work involved in putting this all together. And it probably quintuples the interior storage space! A tube of toothpaste in the trunk and now a half a sandwich in the storage tray. A veritable long-haul machine...

    Ford GT bodyshell

    Great pix. Fascinating how they can create the GT's beautiful shape out of aluminum. I'd sure like to see a video of them rolling the panels - especially the hips, err, rear fenders. I assumed that the whole car was aluminum. Nice to know the hood isn't. One less panel to ding (from the EP's OCD...

    Shadowman and his "Hot Buttons"

    You're most welcome. As I've mentioned to you privately, in addition to the specific work done (pulley/tune, air inlet reinforcement, fire system, wheel touch ups, clear protectant and the all important seat buttons), she just seems to feel and run better than new. Must be some of that magic...

    Shadowman and his "Hot Buttons"

    FWIW, Professor Shadowman himself installed a set in my gal while in his shop. Plain silver. Not blue, white, red, striped, plaid, herringbone, CF or even dark matter. They are spectacular. Totally changes and improves the appearance of the interior. I was actually surprised how much a...

    How many Whipple options are there?

    Oooh, and a spelling error too. And to think I won my Brooklyn public school spelling bee two years in a row. But thanks for the note. If I may wax a bit syrupy, I actually take this forum very seriously and really respect the knowledge and behavior of the membership, and the subtle and...

    How many Whipple options are there?

    Got the message(s). Mia culpa.

    How many Whipple options are there?

    Yoweee, that's harsh. OK, TRUCE!!! (BTW, EP, when you sold your GT, did you have to dig it out of your garage with a spoon??) Kinda' like that 'Great Escape' thing... :)

    How many Whipple options are there?

    Aw shucks EP. We wouldn't say these things if we didn't love ya', or like ya, or sumpthin'...

    How many Whipple options are there?

    Wow Man, you guys are trained professionals. I am truly humbled. AND inspired. So re that quid pro quo/pay-it-forward gifting plan, can you point me to the online instructional video to make sure I get those dance steps straight?? Separately, the only response on this thread that I find...

    How many Whipple options are there?

    That makes a lot more sense. When I recently read the 40lbs number, I was shocked - unless you're making those things out of spent uranium (obviating the need for those cool under-clamshell blue lights!). OTOH, after making peace with my wife re the recent pulley and tune ("What? 550 HP is not...

    Barrett-Jackson GT Forum Dinner - 2009

    Is there still time to request a seat at the dinner table? I'd like to get a chance to meet the people behind this most-successful forum...

    Shadowmans impact on veterinary science

    Yes, it's a remarkably simple if not clumsy solution to the problem of having a patient who does not know how to take care of himself, or can be restricted to a hospital bed. As long as you don't mind all of the door jams scuffed, the floor lamps toppled, and it filling up with leaves and other...
