Re: dsms detail: Ford GT, #1
Well I see that someone doesn't want to come to my next, next birthday party either...  . Is it just me or do the 512 and the GT have strikingly similar silhouettes?
Great work, Dave and I'm happy to see such beautiful steel in deserving hands like yours  .

Re: dsms detail: Ford GT, #1
Beautiful work Dave! Having had the pleasure of detailing a few of these (one of my customers has 3 of them) I truly appreciate the level of work that goes in to working on one of these. If you ever have a chance to ride in one, do so! Hearing the turbo spool, especially with a Heffner kit is amazing!

Cant hear a turbo "spool" on a supercharged car unless its turbo modified but it still sounds great stock. The supercharger whine was enough for me when I drove this, the plexi firewall is great too because you can see the SC belt spin behind your head!

My bad. You know where I was going with it. lol. My one client has one that's been modified by Jason Heffner and being in it is like being in another world. The term rocket ship seems to come to mind.

In a past job I work for a company that did product testing for GM. Those pre-production cars all had VINs, and were 95% of what the actual production was. So my guess is GT VIN #01 is in some Ford warehouse, and #02-94 were test models, this was the first sold to the public.

This stock one moves, I could only imagine a TT'd GT. Stage 6 motorsports had a big TT GT project about a year ago, I think they are making close to 1500rwhp now and over 1000 ft. lbs!

Re: dsms detail: Ford GT, #1
I was lost between studying the GT and the incredible house. Are you the official detailer to MTV Cribs? Great work as usual Dave.
