128 miles since restoration. Very nice car. Need to remove my favorite sticker from it though.

Thanks Charley, as the ad is a little mis-leading, as it indicates the mileage to be 134.

Those "Caution Fan" stickers are really starting to p!ss me off! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif But seriously, why do so many of these high dollar restorations have those stickers? Do the guys at Jiffy Lube put them on when the car comes in for an oil change? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif Oh yeah, love that color.

Yes Charley, I agree...lose the sticker! Sometimes I wish the guys who are sticking these on their cars would fire that puppy up and hang a few digits over the edge of that shroud while affixing their sticker. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/crazy.gif One less "nimrod" putting these on very nice cars. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/eek.gif

The Ford "Caution" sticker on the fan shroud...

Charlie I agree it looks like a very nice car. At what point does better than new detract from the car on a properly restored car? I mean it's got the details like body color over spray on the undercarage but crisp lines between the firewall and cowl. Don't take this wrong, I'm not bashing the car I just find it interesting because so many cars have so much time and money put into them to insure they are correct in every detail except then more time and money goes into them and they are given that show car finish, I guess you could say over restored.

I think thats the car that was sold at the Russo Steele auction. That was definetly a first class resto. The paint was incredible.

It was at Russo and Steele but did not sell. I just ribbed Mike about the "Caution Fan" Sticker. He is at the Kruse Auction in Az and says it looks pretty desolate.

I am with you guys on the over-restored cars...If you could take a car that just came off of the Norwood Line in '69 and put it in a car show the judges probably would not even place it in the top 3 in show. Now how screwed up is that?
