Fubar's GT Build

[Xcentric]

The wood paneled backlight takes me back to my 1960s basement rec room.

I felt like it added a certain Jen ne sais quoi to the finished product. :bs

nice Sonic commercial reference.

A few images of the balanced cam shafts.... for picture junkies like me. I can't imagine this causing any integrity issues with the shaft.

 

[Flatrod]

Thanks for the cam pictures. I wondered how it was done. I don't see where that metal removal will hurt anything at all.

 

[Indy GT]

Mark, just make sure all machined edges have a fillet. No sharp edges.

Notice even your cam caps have a nice broken edge applied to all exterior edges.
Someone is paying attention. (MoTech or Ford)

 

[Wwabbit]

when is this thing gonna be finished?

 

[TO AWSUM]

Fubar, What's the status of your build? We haven't heard from you in a while.

 

[Specracer]

Whoa, forgot about this thread. Almost 4 years.

 

[TO AWSUM]

Only 10 months since he gave us a status report, but it has been an awfully long build.

 

[ChipBeck]

Mark,

During your 4 year build the Ford GT has become a lot more collectible so I think you should return it to stock.

I am reluctantly posting a few images. I really wanted to wait until I had this thing done. I know this taking forever (believe me, I know) but I am not blessed with a limitless budget and sometimes my toy project have to take a back seat to more important things. It is getting very close, I was hoping for a January completion but I think thats going to be a bit to optimistic... close tho, very close.

 

[Fubar]

Some of those images are old. It's a bit further along than those pix would indicate (but not much further).

 

[fjpikul]

Wait a minute here, that looks like a blue car and NOT a fugitive recovery vehicle.

 

[Fubar]

She is back down to her birthday suit for now. I plan on a new improved wrap after we get her rolling.

 

[Indy GT]

Can't wait to see it Mark!
Possibly soon.....
