I noticed the car doesn't say GT on the back, so now it does, kinda. I suppose FL can blame COVID that it took em 3.5 months to get this to me:

Can’t believe I was able to get this one in MI5D7B0901-3276-43B9-94DE-C2404E6A403A.jpeg

Nice one! And yeah, I checked a bunch of possibilities, found 25-30 "OK" that were available, narrowed them down to maybe 5 I could live with, and I thought ITSA GT was the best one.

I keep thinking there's gotta be some awesome one that I just couldn't think of o_O and from time to time I do think of another one, check it and find it's taken. I actually think mine is only "OK", and if I do find a better I'll prob switch! 😁

It took me 5 years to name the boat so I guess I have 4 more to figure out a plate. So many cool ideas to choose from.

I ended up getting a Ford GT plate frame. I was shocked at how many people don't know what it is. I was refueling and a guy in an F150 pickup asked if it is a Porsche. Really? I am a long-time 911 owner, and I was like "no, it's a Ford." I said it very politely, but my mind was boggled. Went on Amazon that night and got a nice stainless steel plate frame that said "Ford GT."

Originally I was going to go with "THE ONE" (it was available at the time), but I figured non-gearheads would assume it was a narcissistic reference to my own darned self...so instead, I went with a humorous plate I could transfer to any pricey vehicle I might choose to put it on down the road.

'Judging from the general public's reaction to it, it was a good choice. People seemed to love the 'plate as much as the car. ;-)

Long ago I chose not to post that sort of info on the 'net, Sir. 'Not comfortable doing it.
In the very few photos of the GT that I (or others) have posted here or elsewhere on the net, the 'plate has always been covered up one way or another.

I went the simple route; was able to get "05 Ford"... almost went for "05 4RD GT"
