As a Ford fan I'd appreciate a summary of your GT (options etc) if you're cool with that.

Hopefully Santa will bring you a big yellow pressie.
Hi Henry 351, im plannig with my brother to go get the car over xmas when my brother has time off work to help me.

Its a 74 GT coupe:
- genuine all numbers match inc. engine (which is rare now it seems)
- yellow blaze from factory, was auto but is now top loader (i like manual)
- factory sunroof
- factory electric windows
- factory air conditioned (tho isnt in it now)
- it also has landau coupe style rear seats in it (dont think it was an option, but didnt change to original it cos it looks great and is comfortable)
- stock engine

thanks mate

The coupe sounds great, its well optioned. My XB GT is a manual '73 sedan in yellow blaze with factory long range tank, power steering and globes.

Don't forget the novelty shed keys in the shape of a cordless drill and bolt cutters.

Good luck and keep us posted.
