Here are some photos of my newly acquired GT. It is currently en-route from New York to Texas and should arrive by the end of the week. Here are some quick specs and some photos from the original owner...I will add some more once it gets here:
One owner, special ordered, built at Lorain, Ohio and delivered to Trice-Juron Ford / Mercury in Saratoga Springs, NY. 37,800 original miles. Garage kept, stored on wheel stands every winter. No rust anywhere. 351 Cobra Jet, C6 transmission, 3.25 rear, dark blue metallic, black interior with bucket seats. Effortless key start, runs smooth and lots of power. Competition suspension. |

Paid 21,000 which was the asking price. I didn't haggle as this car is all original, un-restored and in incredible condition. That counted for quite a bit in my book as I really did not want to restore one. It was obvious that it had been well cared for and I could not believe that it had not sold already.
