Lots of 350s at Carlisle Ford Nationals!!!

[84venom]

We had almost 15 GT350s at the show this weekend. A nice mix of Track Packs and Techs in most of the colors. There were a few more sprinkled about as well, including one Black/Black OTT RRRRR which was for sale! I believe asking price was around $110,000. There was also a Black Track Pack for sale, and a White/Blue OTT being raffled off for to support a local school. Ford had several on display as well. Oh, and the Ford GT was amazing.....

I never really understood an almost brand new and completely stock car at a car show. I guess I'm the oddball.

Mine has been modded but just boltons. My car is the all black track pack in the last pic. I could really care less about the car show aspect. It's just cool to get a bunch of GT350's in one spot and the parking is good.

The GT is truly insane. :hail:

Like going to the zoo to see turkeys or deer or other semi-domesticated animals. You don't get to see them often in the wild, but at the zoo they are all caged up in mass for your viewing pleasure :cheers:

I wish I could of went. But, every year, same old thing. Military reserves duty.

I used to think the same thing, but when you have people buying straight-off-the-rotisserie 64.5 - 73's that are in better-than-factory condition what's the difference?

Both persons invested funds to secure their trophy-getter... So, I just go with the flow. That's why there are divisions in shows.

When I show my 71 Boss, which is in excellent resto-condition and rarer than my R, alongside my R at shows, the R gets 7:1 more attention. People appreciate art of new and old form.

if modifying your car was a requirement for car shows then i would be banned for my 2! whats the problem with keeping them stock? im the one with the rare car for no mods.

i too have very similar picts of the 350's, only wish i could have talked to more of you all and knew you were on the forums!
i was sad not to see a CO 350 there! must be super rare car....

would like to have one to match my CO boss and my CO 15...

I saw all the GT350s up at Carlisle as I was there from Thursday - Saturday. They all looked great and sounded amazing, too. Ford hit a home run with this car, for sure. [MENTION=20815]84venom[/MENTION] you car looked amazing. That was the first DIB GT350 I have seen. It really pops with the black wheels and white stripes.

My '15 GTPP won first place in the 2015-2016 GT class. It was parked right at the M6G tent.

I've never understood why people like you feel that way. If it's brand new or old, modded or stock it doesn't matter. A nice car is a nice car and it's fun to get together and talk cars with others.

I agree with that.

True about not seeing them on the roads very often.

I used to think the same thing, but when you have people buying straight-off-the-rotisserie 64.5 - 73's that are in better-than-factory condition what's the difference?

It's not easy to own a 30+ year old car and have it drivable and in great condition. Either lots of money or lots of effort. Also, you never see those classics driving. But then again people who don't own one don't know.

I guess I'm odd, but I will walk right past 99% of stock cars at a show. I'm interested if the owner has done some modifications, though. Especially hand made mods by the owner are cool IMO. Factory cars are all the same.
