When I picked up my car from Wilkinson's, I gave David's car a good look-over. The installation, integration and engineering is amazing. Not to mention it's gorgeous to boot! I too, can't wait to see the car in Monterey.

That policy includes wear items like belts.  Then everything is astronomically priced from Ford.

Wilkinson had  a lot of time in making the decklid, which is fiberglass,   Even though the Ford GT engine was lowered ~3 inches in the car, the stock supercharger still was too high for the stock deckllid.
