As Borat would say " NICE "...
Where did you get the sail panel trim? I may need a nicer set... |

That's why I said the COA's are often incorrect. I ordered a COA (against my own advice) for #1724. It came in wrong on a bunch of things. I called and asked them to correct it. They said they could change a couple of things ( ie; the completion date, based on the Compliance sticker in the door jam), but couldn't change others. So I made a copy of the COA, then sent the original back for a full refund. On the Carrera RS I had, the COA didn't even state it was a Carrera. It is a nice piece of paper though, and I think you get a couple extra points in PCA Concours for having it. T.C. |

If anyone has the patience to do it right, it will be Andy! It might take a super buffer, but it will be pristine when it is done!

Are you shooting for as many NOS parts as possible? Car doesn't look like it has a rusty hell hole, what happened to the rear fenders and trunk? Do you know the history of the car? Good luck with it, I'd love a real six needing a resto. John |

Andy.... If the car looks familar then maybe you know more details about it? like where is the original engine case (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)
Yes, I plan on getting nothing but the best in the way of parts for this resto, Lots of pics and progress after the route 66 run (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) This is the way the car was when the seller bought it. Glad I have inventory from part cars!!! finding parts is a fun part of the journey. the hunt continues, tell me what you got that I might need!!!!! |

If that is indeed the correct number. COA's for our cars are notorious for being incorrect. My car # is 673, The COA said my engine # was supposed to be 6404418, but it is actually 6404444 T.C. This is the hard part, Not knowing if the info is correct and it being hard to find (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/boldblue.gif) THANK YOU!!! Lots of pictures would be best (back, underside, etc). The idea is that if someday we need to reproduce or repair something, we have a nice reference to get all the details as correct as possible.
