Dan </div></div>hi thanks for the link.

the engine looks like it has at least 108,500 miles.


it is an estate sale not barrett jackson so imo might hit 60k.


from the auction

&quot;the exterior finishes present nicely with approximately 70% to 75% of the paint appearing original.&quot;

what happened to the other 30% of the original paint if it only has 8,500 miles.

if it only has 8,500 miles why does it have 108,500 miles worth of oil and grime on the front of the engine?


from yahoo

...out of the dust emerges something immaculate.

This particular garage-find was owned and perfectly preserved...

Larry never washed the car for fear of scratching the paintjob or cause even the slightest bit of rust. Yahoo News estimates that the only time the car was ever washed was before delivery. Accordingly, the car is in absolute show room condition, except for a layer of dust.

What is yahoo smokin. did they not look at the engine photo or even read the auction description, lol?


&quot;The only items that are not from 1968 are the tires.&quot;

This is the only thing I believe from yahoo.


just sayin, lol.
