That Red-on-Red is sharp! The background setting is REALLY sharp.

Can't read the trim codes or block stamp. Bird cage look good being a Florida car? Motor or trans ever rebuilt? Clutch? Mileage? Original paperwork or build sheet?

Looks like too many numbers. Are you sure that these (F01II4HE) are correct. I can not make the photo out.

Engine Pad 6113395 F01II4HE

(Engine pad matches VIN)

No knowledge prior to 2003 re motor, tranny or clutch. In 2003 mileage was 84K, currently 7K. No build sheet or paperwork

To those that have concerns about the trim tag and engine stamp and are truly interested buyer, PM me with your email. The photos on my ipad are much more legible than those posted. I was hoping the recipients could enlarge the photos but apparently not

Great looking AC vette, very purdy! Good luck with your sale, I'd be surprised if it didn't sell quickly. Take care!

But when replacing parts I did consider NCRS

Radiator is a DeWitts date matching repro
Overflow tank,distributor and alternator are all correctly dated
Carburetor and voltage regulator are correct but service replacement
Correct 300 HP steel valve covers come with car

Numbers matching motor and factory red on red

Red line radials and gas shocks not available in 1966.

Was the frame freshened up when the body was off? Are those original knockoffs or repros?

Default Car sold yet?

Why isn't this car sold yet. It's a great color combo, great options and looks to be well taken car of. The $55K seems to be very fair. What's wrong here?

Adding this update on behalf of the OP:

I obviously priced it too low. Once the car appears on Mershons website if you still have an interest in the car PM me with your phone number and I can provide some history. Shipped with the car was a 2 page spreadsheet and a thick file with all the parts and service history in the 15 years I owned it.

I have no ill will to the buyer, I set the price but I thought I was selling it to another enthusiast not someone who recognized a financial opportunity.

At 73 I am still learning.
