About
Originally an Alabama car, an older gentleman purchased it from the original owner a few years ago and brought it to Michigan. After some freshening up of the engine and trans he was forced to sell it. I bought it from him off of e-bay. The original owner had given him all the documentation for the car which was passed on to me. The window sticker, waranty tag, receipt showing that a 1961 T-bird was traded in on the car when it was purchased, and some miscellaneous other paper work. I have discovered build sheets under both the front and rear seats but they are for a car with a 302 VIN and my car is a factory 289 car. I'm not sure what explanation there is for finding two build sheets with the same VIN that isn't the VIN on the car.
