I got the car and painted its original sheet metal, with the exception of a fiberglass deck-lid, Shelby hood, and new front fenders that were bought right from Ford back in the 70's. There is about 56,XXX miles on the car but of course other than it sitting for so long, I have no proof that that is actual. The car is a nice mostly original sheet metal car, but it is old and was NOT restored. It is a nice local car show/driver. The motor was originally a "C" code 289 2V, it now has a 302 J code 68 302 4V that was out of a 68 Shelby GT350, also it has a AOD automatic which makes it nice on the highway! Many, many, many new parts. For example, last year I added power disc brakes , a new front end, (upper/lower control arms, new tie rod ends, new power steering hoses, along with the new engine/AOD transmission). The body has most of its original sheet metal. The Shelby Hood was installed in the early 70's as well as the rear deck lid. This car is very solid underneath but keep in mind it is not restored, the car is not detailed like a show car, but can be done easily. It is not perfect, but it is a nice straight car.
