So it was new years day that my wife and I found ourselves arguing over whether to get a second GT. What’s odd is that she was the one wanting to get it, and I was the one trying to be logical and conservative. But as usual, she got her way (I may have caved in quicker than normal). So with the empty-nest syndrome around the corner we find ourselves adopting a second no-stripe GT, this one an unusual no-option Tungsten. Thank you Shelby.

No option cars have that stealth look and those non-car people always want to know what car is that? Usually are surprised that it is a Ford. Clean looking car and jealous of your second GT. Girlfriend has been talking about getting a GT while the prices just keep going up and up.

Congrats on your choice. First time I've seen a no-stripe Tungsten GT, very stealth, very cool.

Congratulations, Jim - now it needs a set of your splash shields!! Maybe you'll have to ramp up production again, in order to get a set for it.

No concern there Tony. Out of garage space, and car funds. Gonna have to sell one of the driver cars just to keep them supplied with working gages! :biggrin
