Title: MY NEW FE
Post by: snuff69 on January 02, 2009, 09:55:34 AM
HI ALL I AM NEW TO THE FORUM AND THOUGHT I WOULD SEND SOME PICS OF MY NEW FE ITS A 57 SPECIAL BLACK WITH A FALL RED INTERIOR, NICE AND STRAIGHT WITH NO RUST EXCEPT FOR THE SURFACE RUST WHERE THE PAINT HAS WORN THROUGH ITS GOT 70,000 ORIGINAL MILES, 2 PREVIOUS OWNERS. I FOUND IT AT A LOCAL FARM WHERE IT HAD BEEN SITTING SINCE 1975. I HOPE THE PICS COME THROUGH AS I AM A BIT OF A COMPUTOR NOVICE   SEE YA

Hi snuff69

Welcome to the forum.  Nice to see another rare factory option "solar heated" special!  :D

What are your plans for it?

I agree FC427!  ;D  Lower it, whack on some whitewalls and enjoy not feeling like you wanna clean it 5 minutes after the last time you cleaned it!  ;D

Yeah, as much as I said leave it be, having a shiny black FE with red trim and whitewalls is kinda special - but I could just be a little bit biased!  ;)

Best of luck with your mini-rebuild Dave - hope it all goes well and you have no troubles making it to Orange in 2010.  ;D
