There's a Ford GT at Jubilee Ford today....... if your bored, go check it out, apparently they are revealing it today....

Original blue/orange paint scheme......

Not sure how long it's going to be here. I'm planning to swing by today, I'll grab some pics and post them up later.

I think that is the same one they have there, some dealer demo thing. Pretty rare to see ANY performance car here on the prairies....

Opens at 11am today, just heard it on the radio in the main showroom......

If you're in 'toon you guys should check it out.. beautiful car.. barely comes up to my waist.

I wonder if they'll start making kit cars of the new GT once it's out of production. I always dreamed about getting a GT40 kit car when I got older, but if I could get a car I'd actually fit in, and didn't locate the gas tanks in the door sills, I'd be so up for it.

Yeah I wondered that also........ There are a couple of those kit cars kicking around the city here, one is a blue lamborghini and it's 'very' close to the real thing, alot of original parts on the thing and a complete head turner.

Looking forward to this, I'll post up some pics for sure tonight. Not sure how good they will be as I'm sure there will be ALOT of people checking this out.

appartently there are 3 Ford GTs in Sask, one in Regina, one in Saskatoon, and one at Lakeland Ford. All of them have the Gulf Racing colour scheme.

Made a mistake on the name, it's a FORD GT, not a GT40.... oh well. I've always known that car style as a GT40 and since the original was named so, kinda shocked FORD didn't stick with that name. That and typical 'street slang' for GT would be a Mustang GT......

Oh well.......

The gulf colors don't really work on the new GT... needs to be blue with the white stripe..

I actually like the gold/black look better but yeah, the colors are 'different' but there's alot of history on it.......

Saskatoon Guys (ford Gt)...... *pics Added* - FociPhil - 03-31-2006

Way to go Chad, nice pics. Should have got video when he started it up, i wanna hear that beats.

I would have to say im not a fan of the gulf colours either.

Saskatoon Guys (ford Gt)...... *pics Added* - FocusGuy7476 - 03-31-2006

kinda can't call it a GT40, cause the orginal car was 40 inches tall and new one is 44 inches tall. GT44 doesn't have the same ring to it. i know too much about the Ford GT cars.

No kidding! Wpg got a couple last week, I had to go a take a look myself. I was in a deep trance drooling for about 20 minutes untill my service advisor started up an 03 Cobra that they just did a VT 5L stroker kit on with a Kenny Bell S/C to top it off, breathing through Bassani exhaust....The Cobra sounded better!!!! :ph34r:
The dealership I went to said the customer requested they didn't PDI the car, here some pics.....

thank god, because we all remember what happened when Ford tried the GT on their own again..

the fact that you can build a 'recplica' of a 30 yr old car and it still fit in with the latest exotics is a testament to just how great the original was (and still is).
