Picking Up My Very First Gt500 Tomorrow


Recommended Posts

Hi Rich,

 

Looks like you're in the Raleigh/Durham area. As far as mods I suggest the following (in order) :spend: :

 

TIRES! - You'll soon learn why this is critical. Might want to go for wheels while you're at it.

Suspension

Brakes

Cooling

And then HP if you so desire

 

Welcome to Team Shelby.

Welcome to Team Shelby.

Well The car is in Durham, and I am in Charleston, SC.... GT500s with low miles are sparse... so I am driving 4 hours to pick it up... made the deal via the phone lol

Make sure you ask the Ford dealer to print you the OASIS report for the car so you can see if it has had clutch TSB preformed. If TSB has not been preformed have him do it before you take the car and let them pay for it.

Be careful of the Horse Power, it can bite you. :shift:

Be easy on her until you get a feel for the car. :victory: Even if you are use to fast cars. :salute:

Cold weather, below 40F, can have a huge effect on your tires. Turn into rocks. :hysterical2:

Nice ride, welcome to the Team Shelby family. :banvictory:

Hey, I'm in Charleston too. You better start bringing it to local cruise-in's, shows, and Cars and Coffee gatherings. We have a nice little group of Shelby owners in the area and can always welcome another. Congratulations and learn and enjoy what you have before you go mod wild. :cool:
