Located in Colorado. Contact me via this forum or email me at timberdancr@outlook.com
The award* winning car is finished in Highland Green over 2 tone green vinyl upholstery and power comes from its stroked big block paired with the 3 speed automatic transmission.

This car was an original X Code 390 and has had less than 500 miles logged on it since restoration. It has been stored in a temperature controlled location. Other features include fender extensions, a fiberglass ram air hood scoop, side air scoops, rear spoiler, dual side mirrors, and white and gold side stripes with EXP 500 lettering. Under vehicle is detailed and painted.
The 15" cast alloy 10 spoke wheels with Shelby Cobra center caps are mounted on Mickey Thompson Sportsman S/T P215/70R15 tires with matched spare. In addition, period correct Goodyear E70-15 Wide Tread RWL (5) are in reserve (shown on pic).

The two spoke steering wheel is a restored original and a gauge package is complete on dash and center console. Total mileage is unknown. The 445ci was built during the refurbishment and features a 4bbl Holley carburetor, high volume fuel pump, black with silver finned Cobra Lemans valve covers, period correct and stamped Autolite regulator, radiator hoses, Ford belts, etc. Under hood detailing also includes Ford blue block, intake, original style fittings and functioning air intake from its low profile hood scoop. In one lapse for personal preference the car was built with the stylish, later model body color side mirrors. VIN: 8F01X196183
This quality restoration has an asking price of $89,000 OBO
