  • It's gone, we say farewell to my Ford GT! The most incredible tour in the United States is coming right up, with my American Shmeemobile returning back Stateside. Secure your privacy with Surfshark! Enter coupon code SHMEE for an extra 3 months free at surfshark.deals/SHMEE
    Back in 2019, I took my Ford GT out to the United States and built the most amazing memories with it, a huge part of establishing its place as a permanent Shmeemobile. Since then, I've bought the Shelby GT500 and had it in the US for 2 years, taken over the AMG GT Black Series for a tour across 30 States, and even took out the Zenvo last summer for Monterey Car Week. However, with some exciting things on the horizon, it is time for the Ford GT to head back out and that means getting it ready to go.
    Today we're transporting it up to MyCarImport to load it into a container that will be taking the car on the way 'across the pond' ready for the first plans at Circuit of the Americas with the GT1 Sports Club by Curbstone. This is just going to be the start as you can bet Monterey Car Week is going to be involved, but that is only the beginning of the fun ahead.
    In order to load it up, the most important thing is to disconnect the battery given the time it will be at sea, and to do this is a process that involves removing the battery, which firstly requires the front-right wheel and arch liner to be taken off to get behind.
    My car is about to head out to COTA for the GT1 Sports Club by Curbstone, and you can find out more information about the event here: programme.curbstone.net/gt1-c...
    If you're interested in these kinds of rare and limited cars, be sure to check out Exclusive Car Registry where you can find my Ford GT here: exclusivecarregistry.com/deta...
    Shout out to My Car Import for their great service to send my car abroad:

    Tim if there is now some sort of regulation that the battery needs to be removed from the vehicle for transport why not have someone fit a power bypass that can be accessed via the wheel arch that links to the terminals where the battery sits? You can then remove the cars battery before transport and just get a small battery which you can connect to the car via the wheel arch terminals and rest on the fan vents in the bonnet to prevent the paint getting scratched ( You could possibly even just use one of those small high power portable jump packs) giving enough power to load and unload it from transport.
    That way you can drive it to where it has to go. Remove the headlight and primary battery. Connect the "transport" battery via the wheel arch disengage the park brake, put it in neutral, get it in the container and disconnect the transport battery once the park brake is re applied.

The Ford GT sounds so angry (cant wait to hear it at COTA), and the 296 is a banshee. I hate some of the JDM flatulent trombone sounds

    Hey Tim how come you don't put a car cover over it?

    I don't remember you doing all these stuff (taking off a headlight to disconnect the battery, but it in to neutral with the fucky key) the other time you shipped it to the US. It happened off camera or it's a new requirement?

    In a previous video when you said the GT was gonna be shipped to another country, I genuinely thought you were headed to Japan for some reason. I don’t know why I thought that way haha. Looking forward to another great adventure. 😅

    I really thought it is literally a goodbye for Ford GT. Like it is one of a kind premium supercar and you letting it go. You caught us off guard from your thumbnail and title.

    I really hope you'll be able to catch up with that hippie car collector from last year or so. I am really curious to see how his space has progressed 🤩🤩
