I don't see how they can sue. It's a custom car, they can do what they want I would think.

They certainly can. Ford lost rights to sue for just about anything copyright related years ago when they let the aftermarket reproduce just about every iconic mustang ever made.

I would hope ford can't sue because then what would that say about the gt350 body kits or any other parts for that matter. As for the GTT body kit itself not sure how I really feel. Not sure if I love or hate it. Probably have to see one in person.

Sounds like they're just butt hurt. If they can sue for this why don't they sue every cobra kit car manufacturer out there? They own the cobra still.

They don't have a case it's a custom show car that's like sueing someone for having the same haircut as you

With car sales down you would think Ford would want all the positive publicity they could get. A law suit would be really negative publicity at a time they need all the good press they can get. :frusty:
