driving north and all of the a sudden I see this Ford GT drive past, but it wasn't the regular one. It was this:

I didn't know this car was street legal. I was so pissed I didn't have a camera that worked.
 
I like that car very much. You hurt my feelings. It's just not something you see everday--a concept car on the street without any shows nearby.
 
Yeah! There were two of those cruising around at Woodward. It is a conversion kit done by a company in California. Very nice looking and very real.
 
There are only four of those. In all likelihood that was Kip Ewing driving it. It was kind of his brainchild, then he gave it up to Genaddi Design Group when FoMoCo wouldn't produce it. Mark Gerisch (dude that owns Genaddi) brought it to the Ford GT Forum Rally last month, and delivered a Red one and a Silver one. Kip told me Mark was leaving that one with him for a couple of weeks. Both of the others and their owners were here too, even though they weren't 100% complete. Included in the conversion is smaller pulley, exhaust, filters, and stuff so it's around 650hp as well.

The guy with the red one had alot of CF bodywork and we were talking about it and he said he had 83k into it on top of the car. :icon_eek: The silver car had a real fine platinum paint job with tungsten stripes. Excellent paint job. Car just needed to have the rough edges refined. Oh and it had a really bad ass looking red interior.

btw, the wheels actually look good in person. I was a gigantic critic of them from the pictures, but they looked pretty cool on the red car. I'll post pics when I get a chance later today...
