Well after 5 tough days of waiting... she arrived and in perfect condition. I WISH EVERYONE could have the buying experience I had with a certain Mr. Pockets. I had been trying to get Emptys car picked up for 3 weeks and Shelby (ELITE) came thru with a transporter literally a half of an hour out of Seattle and hooked me up right then and there, or I'd still be waiting for transporter. Larry then spends 2 1/2 hours making sure car is loaded and tied down perfectly. THANK YOU AGAIN EMPTY POCKETS!:thumbsup and kudos to MR. SHELBY.

Did Mr. pockets insist on a first right of refusal, should you ever sell her?

Sounds like you scored a well cared for and beautiful GT. Now go drive it like you stole it, she has been a caged animal, she needs a good romp:thumbsup

Wally, right of first refusal? I'm sure blownaway will not garage queen his new FGT. On that basis, Larry will regain his sanity soon, pick up a MSO and promptly lock up the new gal.

blownaway - congrats, you have one of the nicest, lowest mileage, least driven cars out there :rofl

Be sure to flush the fuel system as it has probably turned to laquer due to storage in the NW....

Enjoy the grin! :thumbsup

Enjoy! Glad I could help you with your shipping. If you are anything like me, waiting is like having a bad disease. I am a very impatient person. Wish I had a cure!!! :willy

Now, do we really know that EP ever had a FGT or was this all some elaborate hoax?

Shelby,
I looked on page 2 of autotrader for Ford GT's, and the same private seller has a red one for sale too. Interesting.
