Pretty rare car being a GT 4 speed. If your wallet is project size this is a great finishing point compared to almost any GT/CS entry level project.

The C8AM was the first and lesser known Mexican "hipo" before the more common D1ZM. They were installed in some trucks built for US production and have the similar heavy main caps to the C5OE hipo 289

Feb 15 would be more accurate. There is a change published date think it is Feb 22 I have seen several Feb cars with the later reflectors. Never seen a Jan build with late quarters. Like you say with overlap based on cars bucked already and inventory levels of early panel at the 3 plants.

Car was built Lime Gold. The recreated history is now Highland Green. I have Marti Report here somewhere as well

Hope you had a super Birthday Sheryl !!

I respectfully disagree on a restored car. The only time a tag should look almost new is on a high quality original survivor. Most of the Gold concours cars retain their original tags regardless of condition. There are no point deductions for original tags regardless of condition. That all being...

If and when a door tag is needed I age them for patina. They are a dead give away if not

The eaton that sells the springs today is a different company than the one from the 60-70's. Just a coincidence on the name. They did acquire the factory drawings and do provide the better quality than the other company in the muscle game. NPD gets a huge break on them and passes it on. I have...
