My '78 Fairmont build - http://vb.foureyedpride.com/showthre...539-78-Big-Red
Nice car. Been listed on several different sites, trying to fetch that big money. Market is still not there for this car unfortunately. Heck I’d consider selling mine for less money and has half the miles.
Mileage records seem kinda hinky, they put 18531 miles on it in 3 months time?

Sorry ....... dream on is blasting in the background!
In all fairness I put 60K miles on my 1986 GT between the months of May and September in 1996.
Very do-able
Interesting to see car was originally sold local to me. The Don Thornton dealership is still in business, but they sell Cadillacs now.

This is Randy's old car (svo85). When I was looking into buying 86-0179, he was a big help in giving me info about the early Saleen's. Once he told me there were only 26 in grey for 86, I went to look at #179. Grey was the only color I wanted. He had already sold #147 by then and had 86-0120, which is a 1 of 1 car in canyon red.
#147 looks almost the same now as the pictures he shared with me back in the day. Only real difference is someone took the window tinting off. And it still has the ford key lock protector on the doors too. He said it was a low mileage car when he had it.
Car is supposedly local to me now but I have not gone to look at it.
