CAR OWNER GARY FOSTER THE RENTAL –2006 SHELBY GT-H CAR NAME–YEAR & MODEL INFO

MEMBERS OF THE STANG MAG FAMILY ARE MORE PASSIONATE ABOUT FUN AND INCLUSION THAN THEY ARE THEIR CARS AND THAT SAYS A LOT!

I met Daniel Ramey at a Beltway Mustang show and won my spot with STANG Magazine in their Carlisle Ford Nationals display. Needless to say I wasn’t sure what to expect being that I didn’t know the people attending and was going by myself.

The STANG Mag family welcomed me in from the very start and made me feel like one of their own!

HE IS AFFECTIONATELY CALLED “THE RENTAL” AND ENJOYS CRUISING, CAR SHOWS, AND JUST HANGING OUT...

If you asked me if I thought I’d be writing an article for STANG Magazine for my car this time last year I would’ve said no. If you asked me if I would be writing it about a different car than the 2005 Roush Mustang I had I would’ve said hell no. I loved that car but acquiring this one reinvigorated my passion for car shows and events!

My name is Gary Foster and I am a retired 28-year Canadian Army Veteran who served 15 years in the Armored Corps and 13 years with the Medical Branch. My wife and I currently split time between Calgary, Alberta Canada and Sun City, West Arizona.

I am the proud owner of a 2006 Shelby GT-H. 500 of these were produced by Shelby for Hertz rental car in 2006 for the 40th Anniversary of the original 1966 Hertz “rent a racer” program. Mine is #259 of 500 and is completely stock. It started its life as a Hertz rental car for the first 18,000 miles and I am the second owner after it was auctioned off by them and it now has approximately 40,000 miles on it. He is affectionately called “The Rental” and enjoys cruising, car shows, and just hanging out with members of our “Wild West Mustangs & Fords” car club in the West Valley.

Members of the STANG Mag family are more passionate about fun and inclusion than they are their cars and that says a lot! I can’t wait to see what’s to come in
