Heritage Ford GT and huge collection for sale

[Gulf GT]

Some of you know that I have struggled with this decision for some time, but I have finally decided to let my Heritage Ford GT go to a new home. No other Heritage Ford GT in the world has such a rare combination of options; factory Gurney Bubble, prototype fuel filler lid, 3.90 short gear ratio, and on and on. My Ford GT memorabilia collection is one of the best in existence if not the best. I have over $170,000 in receipts of upgrades to the car and over $30,000 in memorabilia, and I realize that I can only get a fraction of that investment over the price of a stock Heritage, so someone is going to get a heck of a deal. It is a 1250 mile car. Price is $500,000 OBO. Frankly, it is a bargain compared to any other Heritage currently on the market. I have no interest in splitting up my collection of memorabilia or my cache of Ford GT parts some of which are not listed on the website. It is a “buyer takes all” deal. Send me a message if you are interested or contact me though the website. I am happy to talk to anyone that sends me their phone number as well. Here is the website for the car: http://heritagefordgt.com/

Thank you.

The website and your total offering is an oustanding production. A chance for the right buyer to get a complete turn key deal.

I must ask, where did you find those seat covers? My wifes bedazzled ass Miss Me jeans are beginning to become an issue.

Lol! I share that concern, and question.

His name is Michael and the company was called BSmooth. I just called his old phone number and it is no longer working, here is his email though; Michael@Bsmooth.com
Hopefully he still makes them. I looked everywhere and thought these were the best.

I also have those seat covers .They are the best .I have not been able to reach Mike.
Why are you selling your car???

 

[GTdrummer]

Wow. I have a Heritage, but am envious of the collection. None of my business , but curious why you would sell. Has the market topped out IYO? Good luck.

I would be interested in the seat covers too. Too much wear and tear getting in and out of the car

I'm blown away with this car and your memorabilia collection. Glws

I have had the car from new for 8 years and it only has 1250 miles, which is a sin. I love everything Ford GT-GT40, but I have to be honest, I don't love driving cars with a stick shift (I know, I know, I am going to get ex-communicated for that statement). It's not that I am bad at it (I am not great at it either), I just don't enjoy driving it as much as paddle shifted cars. It's the supercar I have owned the longest in my life (or any car for that matter) and the least I have driven by far. I think 8 years is enough, I simply don't drive it enough. It needs to go to someone that will take it to the Rally every year and drive the heck out of it. As far as value, I think it will slowly continue to go up, and if anything 10 years from now I will probably be wondering how stupid I was to sell it.

It's time to get something else that I will drive the wheels off, and I have something in mind or I would not sell it. I don't want to say publicly what that is just yet as there are very few of them around. That's why I am selling it now, the car I have in mind is getting close to being a great time to buy one. I need to be ready to jump and this is the first step.

Gret car and memorabilia collection. GLWS! I too am interested in the seat covers. Interestingly enough, I took the GT out for a quick spin tonight and threw on some jeans with rivets on the back pockets. I knew immediately when I exited that I likely scratched the seats. Sure enough I did (only slight though...luckily). I was actually going to start a thread to see if there was some DIY repair for small scratches in the seat when I read this. Apparently, I'm not the only one.

Great looking car. I know there is a tail for every seat. It is always interesting to hear--I am just the opposite. If the car has a paddle shift, I'm not interested for street use.....not engaging enough for me Best of luck with whatever interest you pursue!

Good Luck with the sale!

Ben, ditto your sentiments. A double-clutch automatic tranny with paddle shifters is way better than any human can be with a manny tranny, but to me it just isn't as engaging. One thing I really like about FGT's is that they are simple cars (by 21st Century standards). They aren't 27 networked computers flying in formation around 4 wheels. I take pride in doing my own work, so I appreciate that I can maintain and modify them myself. That also makes them more engaging for me.

I had a gal with sequins on her jean miniskirt that wanted a ride once. Hottt! Anyway, I declined because of the sequins. She understood and "dropped" her skirt. I was shocked and obligated then! Keith

Those seat covers seem to have button holes. I spoke with the fabricator and his pictures show no such holes.
