SHO6GTH Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 I am one of 4 or 5 2006/07 Hertz owners here in the UK. I have just completed a series of upgrades on my car, so thought I would post the information/part numbers for other owners. The main change was the fitting of the Carroll Shelby CS 69 9.5x18 wheels shod with 255/45x18 Avon tyres. These new rims allowed me to then fit the Ford Racing #M-2300-S Brake Upgrade Kit [14inch rotors] and also the Ford Racing #M-2400-S Brake Ducting Kit. I also fitted the Roush Steering stop kit #131R06010007, which stopped the new wheel/tyre combination hitting the ducts on full lock, however careful positioning of the ducts is required. I did buy the Shelby brake duct bezels, but found the quality very poor and returned them, in the end manufacturing my own bezels and letting them into the front plastic trims. The only other large job on the car was to remove the stick on stripes which although still in good shape, looked really tacky. I was able to get a correct sample of the 1966 Hertz gold paint and used that colour to replace my vynul stripes, with a perfect painted-on set. This work ,out of all of the jobs completed has transformed the way the car looks. Am unsure how to upload pictures of the finished car, so if any other owenrs would like to see it please e-mail me at faulknerstevens@btinternet.com and I'll forward some shots.
