    Welcome.

    My 68KR came from Yates Steves in Kirkwood, MO. They are still open today.

    Hers some more info on my 67 GT 350.
    This car was purchased by Executive Leasing of St L Mo on 2/6/1968 from Yates -Stevens Ford of Kirkwood MO. My Dad bought the car from Executive on 6/19/71. He paid the grand sum of $1500 for the car.
    Had about 30000 mi when he bought it, now has about 68000.
    The car is Lime Gold with no stripes. All original paint and body panels. Excellent black interior . This car is all original except exhaust, belts , hoses, tires, starter, water pump,alternator. The drivetrain has never been out of the car . Has auto trans, would prefer stick myself. 5 ten spoke wheels .
    This car was abused by the Executive Leasing executive who was assigned this car as one of his perks. My Dad was pulled over by the police as he was test driving it. The officer thought he was the owner that they had been chasing around for some time ,but couldnt seem to catch up with.

    More later.
    Pat

    What's your VIN?

    Great to see cars that have been held onto for a long time and not flipped to make a few bucks!
