QUOTE(Mines_R34_The_Ultimate @ Jun 2 2007, 03:23 PM) [snapback]1281119432[/snapback] Hey all, this is a Brand spanking new FPV GT, picked it up on Friday, it has around 50 odd k's on the clock, so it is definatly new . It is an absolute dream to drive. I was hoping on aquiring one of the 40th Anniversary editions, but they sold 200 vehicles in around 2 weeks. So i jsut went with this. As you can tell by my three cars, its very much a Ford Family My Collection: 1970 Mach 1 Mustang 2002 Mustang Cobra 2007 FPV GT Lol. I know its not the right time, But is the FPV Yours or your Mums ? Its such a shame to see a car like this go.. Out of curiosity, Was it insured for market value or agreed ? |

To me the $ value of the car wouldn't have meant anything, the fact that a very rare car with significant Australian history is gone is the worst blow. Even if this was 15 years ago I'd been just as devistated. Such a shame and waste of what looked to be a pristine car. Sorry for your uncles loss mate. |

Out of curiosity, Was it insured for market value or agreed ? The qoute of yours should say "We" not I its my Mums as i stated in this post. Im fairly positive it was insured for marketprice.

I see that your uncle is in a chair, I am also a para and if you wouldnt mind tell him to shoot me a PM if he uses the net. I am not sure if he uses hand controls to drive, but if he does I would just like to ask him who he gets themm from etc, as I paid $1200 for a set and they are rubish. If he doesnt thats fine mate, no harm in asking Hope you find the bastard that burnt it down, nothing can replace a car like that Yeah it is, he actually never got to drive the car. Just loved them as a kid so he bought one years ago. He doesnt really use the internet sorry bud. QUOTE(21AZY @ Jun 21 2008, 07:31 AM) [snapback]1282506095[/snapback] nice looking GT, Whats the highest one of these fetched at that auction a while back, I know a few have comfortably sold for about $350,000 and I remember reading back a while ago that one fella had his advertised for 1 million dollars, doubt he'd get that for it though. One sold for $820,000 and a million wouldnt be too far off these days Cheers for all the comments guys, appreciated. |

My heart bleeds for you. As a fellow FPV owner, and the fact that my Uncle also owns (or did own, cant remember) a Phase 3 GT-HO, and my father used to have a XC Falcon, that was one of the 100 "Phase 4's" that was secretly released, he didnt know until after he sold it for next to nothing. |
