Since I've been looking I've noticed a lot of people have the 00R in the radar and there list. Not that it matters to me but I do see these things going up in the upcoming years so if I can grab this one I'd be happy. Then the hunt for parts start :)

I know a few that are wanting a 00R and waiting for the right car at the right price.

As for prices, they will only go up. It’s nice to have a toy you can occasionally play with that will not depreciate.

I notice a lot of people are looking for 00R like you said for the right price and to there liking. Either way if prices stay the same or go up when I do get mine definitely not for sale.

Question for you guys the front splitter should I he concerned about that, how do I tell if its original. I've seen both your guys video with it off, I've notice theres a black bracket in the center, is that the only way of telling its original?

There is a Ford part number stamped / molded into the inside face of the splitter, I think it’s more towards the passenger side if I recall.

Portions of the July auction are being televised. I'll be watching and hoping the 'R' will be shown. I wish you the best of luck with your bidding!

Hey guys

As i keep starring at this 00R on the mecum website i notice the caster camber plates look a little worn out, should this be a concern? I have been watching enthusiast garage buyers guide and also your videos Tim. Making sure everything matches

Define worn. I’ve seen a lot of them where the paint gets crummy and flaks off the edges and causes surface rust. My guess is because of the engine heat.

Yea looks like a little bit of rust the circular head if you want to call it, should that be a concern? Ive watched your buyers guide today like 5 times double checking the engine bay
