blueandwhite66 Posted February 27, 2015 Report Posted February 27, 2015 Put away for unknown reasons back in 1973 this 68F MK1 Super saw daylight yesterday for the first time in 43 years ! Every wheel locked up and the tyres almost off the rims it took almost 4 hours to get it out and down a narrow alley to my truck by pulling it with a 4x4 most of the way , but well worth the aggro, The car is the 1589 to roll off the line , its March 68 built and totally original , the interior is excellent bar a small split in the drivers seat , headlining and dash top , door cards are perfect , engine bay is excellent, The passenger side front wing is damaged and the worst rust is down the n/s , will need a wing , sill and small part of the floor replacing , chassis rails and rest of the floor pan is excellent , in the boot is lovely too , just goes to show that there are still cars hidden away out there , 6
