Duncan, good luck with the sale.
Seller ended auction because item is no longer for sale...
Duncan, did you get a buyer?
The car is sold, to a gentleman in Alabama. He intends to do what I wanted to do, give it the full, proper restoration. We'll see, I am sad I couldn't see it through. I think the car deserves the very best. <img src=images/icon_smile_sad.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=images/icon_smile_sad.gif border=0 align=middle>
Congratulations on your sale Duncan. It appears that you have placed it in good hands. Maybe the buyer will keep us updated here.

i think this sale is a good example of how original paperwork will make a significant difference in the demand & value of a kar. the buyer will have invested more than double his initial investment of around 30k by the time its done.
just my opinion but for me if i had that much to spend i'd buy one already done, be able to drive & enjoy it NOW and likely have spent less.
it is an extremely rare car but that color IMO is ugly to put it mildly, although i consider myself a purist, if i had it she'd be getting painted a different color than that gold.
The overriding issue of color<i>is</i><i></i>of concern, but the true color is NOT that in the picture, the car was painted in its past and there was no concern to find the real color. This car was not valuable enough. I spoke to the original owners wife, and she said she auctioned the car, along with a bunch of cars and stuff, in 2001. The total history from new is known, and that, I feel, is the highlight of this K.
Kar may be back on the market, he balked at rusty frame rails??!! I told him it was rusty there, I don't know what he was thinking. Next....
Duncan - it appears there is a half-circular cut out on the driver's side of the tail light panel. What is this for?

Looks to me like it is just the plastic bag hanging over the tailpanel ?
You're right. My eyes were playing tricks on me this morning!
yeah, plastic bag. car should've been emptied of the stuff.<img src=images/icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

The car has special DSO paint but the car will need repainted. The true color was a special order DSO from the factory.(see original window sticker) The car was the subject of two articles in Mustang Monthly! While showing no paint code on the door trim tag, the color is believed to be Anniversary Gold. The interior includes Special order black vinyl bench seat in great original condition.

The body has some damage to the driver’s door. The chrome is original & shows great although it has some thinning! The 289 V-8 is matching numbers per the owner.
