Just arrived, the 1979 Heritage Edition was touted as one of the most luxurious, well equipped
Thunderbirds ever. It was the follow-up to the 1978 Diamond Jubilee 75th Anniversary car and
other than a change of paint schemes, a twin car to the DJ. The Heritage continued the cover
up of the large rear side windows with inserts and the vinyl top. Special Rosewood interior
appointments and loaded with standard luxury equipment. Special color keyed turbine wheels
and special pinstriping. We just completed a full refresh of this lovely car in our shop...

We sold this car about six months ago to a lovely Florida senior couple.
The husband has just passed and the widow asked of we could find this
special car a new home. While she loves it, she  just does not need two cars...

Ford won't be releasing GT500 lap times for the 'Ring, or any other car

Wed, 27 Nov 2013

Trucks have towing capacity, EVs have driving range and performance cars have Nürburgring lap times. What do all three have in common? They should all be taken with a grain of salt. Currently, there is no sanctioned way to record lap times or verify production-spec cars - a lesson we recently learned with the 2015 Nissan GT-R Nismo - and until there is a way to do so (and there probably never will be), we'll never officially know the actual time it took for Ford to lap the 'Ring with its ultra-powerful Shelby GT500.
After posting a Ford-made video of a 2013 GT500 running around the 'Ring, the guys over at SVTPerformance.com (an enthusiasts forum not affiliated with Ford or SVT) wanted more answers. They got in touch with Ford's Global Performance Vehicle Chief Engineer Jamal Hameedi, who said until there is a way to verify the times and inspect the cars, Ford will not get involved with lap-time wars. In the email, Hameedi pointed out that the 'Ring is a useful tool in that it allows a wide spectrum of track conditions, but until there is a governed way to record times, there is no way to accurately compare cars head-to-head.
And as much as some may not like it, Hameedi speaks the truth. It really isn't possible to compare times from one car to another, unless those cars were lapping the same track at the same time with the same driver. Not that any of this means there won't be continuous wars by fans and manufacturers alike... in other words, feel free to voice your opinions in the Comments below.
