    Looking to get a 06 GT manual with low miles. What should I be on the look out for?

    The fewer mods the better. Especially if there is a mish-mash of things. A tuned package is one thing, but a bunch of go-fast junk thrown at it may also indicate how it has been treated. Plus, you never really know how well the mods were done. If a manual trans, has the clutch/throw out...

    Don't know why it's upside down

    That can happen if you took a pic of the pic with a phone. There should be an editing button on your phone when you open the pic on your phone. There will be a button that has a curved arrow indicating 'rotate'.

    Question about a parts car

    That's okay. No hurry. Mine is showing signs of deterioration where my hands sit.

    One or more calipers could be sticking on their slides.

    6 gauge MyColor dash cluster and center dash buttons. Make sure it works first. Buttoned in good condition typically bring $30 or more on Ebay. Cluster might get $100...depending on the mileage, but it's hit or miss. Not low or high, but how close to the buyers existing mileage.

    Rear Springs 1" Lower

    Here's a couple more pics from front and rear. I do have a front spoiler/lip that just barely clears most parking stops, but I do have to watch it. It also does NOT like my plastic ramps. The P springs had less drop than the K springs, I think. I didn't want too much.

    Heat warping/repair?

    Is that trim piece an actual Shelby part? Heat expansion is causing it to buckle upwards as it gets hot. Nowhere to go but up between fixed points. Sort of related...I noticed in the first pic that the reflections in the headlights make them look like snake eyes!

    Rear Springs 1" Lower

    If I recall right, the P springs were not an even lowering all around. The rear drops a little more than the front. Plus, springs do settle over time. A concern I had was that my 140k mile oem springs might have settled enough that I wouldn't get the advertised drop. At least, not until the new...

    Definitely get the adjustable panhard bar. I think there was a visible 3/8" shift to one side. That was with the 235 tires. The 255s add another 5/16"-3/8" to each side of the tire. So that would emphasize the shift.

    The reason for CARB is twofold, neither of which has anything to do with communism. One, this is a free country and people can live anywhere they want. Even in a basin that has great weather, mountains to the north and east, and a nice big ocean to the west. It's so nice, tens of millions used...
