UK GT-H Posted October 4, 2007 Report Share Posted October 4, 2007 Hi everyone on the Shelby & GT-H Forum. I have just bought GT-H#488 from Ramey Ford in Tennessee. I hired #214 in Orlando Florida this January whilst on vacation with my family & did not want to give it up! I am shipping the GT-H to the United Kingdom where i am based to share garage space with my Black 66 289 Mustang Convertible! I think it will be only the second GT-H in the UK so far! I will post some pictures when the car arrives by ship to the UK. Kent Thirley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hispony Posted October 4, 2007 Report Share Posted October 4, 2007 Congratulations Kent ! ! I understand exactly how that happens. We rented #481 in Las Vegas last October. As of this past Monday (10/1/'07) #372 is now ours. Hope the car makes it across with no damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmcgrath100 Posted October 5, 2007 Report Share Posted October 5, 2007 That's great that these cars are popular over there, where there weren't even offered for rent! I guess getting two bucks for every pound sterling must make the decision a little easier, even with the shipping / customs. Definitely send a photo once you get it!

Yes Mike, the pound/dollar rate is good right now. When i hired #214 in January/Feb this year Hertz were starting to off load some GT-H's & they were being advertised for $60 to $80,000.00 USD!!! So it just goes to show that all good things come to those who wait!! Just got to wait for the car now........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
