2006 Ford Racing Performance Parts Catalog

2005-06 FORD GT
Perhaps no performance car in the history
of the American automobile has better earned
the right to reach legendary status among
enthusiasts than the Ford GT40, and for good
reason. Ford’s purpose-built endurance racer took
the international auto racing world by storm in the
mid-1960s, thanks to a storied 1-2-3 finish at
Le Mans that led to other dominating performances
across the globe in the years that followed.
Today, the enthusiast world is again abuzz with
excitement over the rebirth of Ford’s legendary
supercar, the 2005-06 Ford GT. Though the sleek,
familiar lines of the new Ford GT strongly recall
the car’s glorious past, the design is a thoroughly
modern interpretation of the original. And while
its mission is still one of dominant performance,
its target has moved from the racetracks of
the world to the streets of America.
In the tradition of authentic GT racers, the
Ford GT’s doors wrap up into the roof and
its quarter-panel scoops channel
fresh air to the engine,
which is the heart and soul of this modern
American exotic. It simply looks and performs
like nothing else on the road. Once its hand-built,
all-alloy 550-horsepower supercharged V-8 is
experienced at full song, the words “Powered
by Ford” will surely define performance for
a whole new generation of enthusiasts.
In production form, the all-new Ford GT captures
the very essence of Ford Racing, as well as the
hearts and imagination of every blue-blooded
Ford enthusiast. With the Ford GT now arriving
at your local Ford dealership, Ford Racing
Performance Parts is actively developing
performance components to help each owner
customize their Ford GT to personal desires.
Those who may never own a Ford GT can still
benefit from FRPP’s ongoing development of
Ford GT components. That’s because FRPP has
developed ways to utilize enhanced hardware
created for the Ford GT
in hot rods, kit cars, and other high-performance
Ford vehicles. Now, you can put some supercar in
your Ford with Ford GT components by Ford Racing
Performance Parts. Read on, visit our website or call
