  1. Mike I also had questions -tires evidence of underhood spray paint
    detail ,replaced master cylinder just to mention a few. Mlke, the PI
    aluminum intake was painted blue with the rest of the engine. It did
    seem like a nice car but if the things I saw that were non original were
    representative of other non original items I couldn't see in the
    photos,I have my doubts of the car being that untouched. Bob G.

  2. Thanks for your response Bob. As for the P.I. intake, I guess I still learn
    something new everyday! : ) Every 68 GT500 intake I think I have ever seen
    has been natural. I had always had a question about that since the cars were
    basically built by Ford starting in 68 and they are all about ease and speed
    when building. Makes perfect sense they would paint as one unit, similar to
    Boss9 heads and intake I guess.
    Thank You,
    Mike McCullough
