    Hi Sean - no, MY '66 won't be for sale, but my wife's '66 GT coupe will be at some point in the near future. It is a San Jose built factory GT coupe with air, power steering, AM/8-track, console, styled steel wheels - Emberglow with parchment interior. It was restored back in the mid-1980s. It has all of its original sheet metal and it has never had any rust anywhere. The undercarriage is gorgeous. You just don't find cars this clean and original anymore. I will hate to see it go, but for a 2013 to end up in my driveway / garage, it is the only way.

    Should be here the week of the 11th I was told...
    were the track apps included or they only on the track package?

    I know it adds, 3.73, brembos, 19x9 wheels, 255/40/19 tires, revalved shocks/struts, boss oil cooler, boss tranny cooler.

    I keep thinking about ordering a 13 GT, with 400A, Recaros, and possibly track pack but if the apps come standard, screw that, ill just do konis around and just do brembo.

    They come standard with the premium but not the base model. I had the same thoughts as you, I know im going to change it all so I can't justify spending the extra money to turn around and remove it all. I love the styling and lighting in these cars I really was not looking to buy one till I test drove one. Not Even in the same league as the 99-04 gt in any way.

    Don't forget guys - the Track Pack on the GT also gives you the Torsen rear diff, which is supposed to be a huge upgrade over the garden-variety 8.8 traction lock rear. That's why it comes on the Boss 302. The $2495 Track Pack price is pretty reasonable when you factor in the Torsen diff plus all the items you noted above.

    Yellow - I hear ya...the test drive was my big "mistake" as well !

    The best plan is A plan which is usually 4-5% under invoice followed by D plan which adds exactly $100 to that. They used to be the same but the factory employees complained that they should get a better price so $100 was added to the dealer employee plan. You get all incentives on top of that.

    What have you been hearing? Can you post up some links? The car will be 99% street, but I might just find my way to a drag strip on occasion...

    And there's always the chance of forced induction down the road...

    unless you work for ford or someone who does is on your title x or invoice is the best you'll get with rebates.


    As far as the torsen goes, just a few boss 302s blowing them out launching on drag tires.

    The ford employee does not have to be on your title. You just have to be a relative and they need to go online and create you a pin.

    I'm pretty sure thats changed now Cam. You can't even give out an X plan pin now without being on the title.

    that is not true. My wife's uncle is a retired Ford employee and he can give us a X plan pin at any time.
