No, it was built by my father-in-law and he just won't seem to gift it to me! Would love to have it though It has a FI 351 and was completely re-built and painted down to the last bolt. He will probably end up taking it to one of those high end auctions in 2014.

He searched for a long time for the wheels when he was building it, found them, and had them polished. It also has the door inserts painted to match that go in place of the doors and a bikini top. It was built prior to digital cameras so I don't have much visual of the build unfortunately. Here's the engine however:

Supposedly prices start at 100k. Less if you provide the doner. Condition matters.

Hey 300 -- would it be possible to get some info on the mirrors on the red/white EB? Any idea on what year that one is and what its history is? Reason I am asking is I haven't ever seen those mirrors - at least I think -- but on one bronco from many years ago. I would love some pics of them profile wise from the side up close and from the front to the back.

Thanks!

The info I have is that those mirrors came from a 1969 Ford and are remote operable.

Yep, I got big dreams, and a small wallet, but I'm gonna make this happen if it takes me 10 years! :D
