We found a Ford GT that's been rotting for 15 years!

Follow @GlossIt for more content about this car!
@EdBolian teamed with @thecultivatedcollector to unearth this 2006 Ford GT that has been sitting for well over a decade. They take the car to @DCMotorWerks for mechanical work before the team from @GlossIt begins the cleanup process.

Starting the car before check on fluids and doing at least oil service it blows my mind

[socalsupers]

You know your getting old when cars that you saw being sold new are now becoming barn finds 💀🤣

[EdBolian]

The GT has aged very well. Our lungs after this encounter…less so.

[littlewicky]

Those bright blue loafers really complete the hazmat suit.

[KeithZim]

Starting that car without changing all fluids and fuel first was a really poor decision.

[Duckyslides]

Using the home depot commercial music for the home depot shot was a fantastic touch

[MikeHarris]

Ed walks around home Depot and the driveway like a 70 year old confused grandpa. Lmao

[maxdrelinger]

Ed’s biohazard suit with no socks is a real fashion statement. 😂

[thecultivatedcollector]

Can’t wait to share the adventure of this GT going from Hoard to Ford! PS, for everyone who expressed concern, yes all relevant fluids and levels were checked before the car was cranked; no GTs were harmed in the waking!

[GFK]

So what’s the backstory on why it sat for so long and why the home appears to be abandoned?

[Duckyslides]

As a flat bed driver that mainly transports film and TV vehicles, with a few high end vehicles thrown in the mix, not many exotics, I can say I do not envy the driver that hauled this car for you guys lol that driveway slope definitely made for a less than great load angle. Good on em for having the proper ramps and equipment, not many guys carry the 2 stage race ramps these days

[thespicemelange.]

You guys are crazy for running that motor

[AkiWataru]

firing it up aftern 15 years was just stupid.

[Volsterr]

Ed has a hazmat suit and basically bare feet lol

[philipgreensmith]

No check engine running on 3 cylinders but no light 😂

[Darkeiser.]

This was such a posh barn find. It's unbelievable and you didn't change fluids or do a compression test!!!! Barn find 101.

[gureno]

Watching you start that car with zero pre checks, fluid change, fuel change etc. was absolutely criminal....how can anyone have such little mechanical sympathy for such a rare and original car like that....

[tony-does-stuff]

"we found this car for $15 and a pack of gum. With $100 and some ekbow grease, we'll turn around and sell it for $500k"

[XCars]

Nice to see the different video format

[Sojuuk]

Any vinwiki video with Ed I am down for. The car trek energy has really come out in the last few years and I am down with that!
