Craig's list link is down. Did the car sell? If its legit, would make a great vintage track core.

Well, this time I printed all of it and it will be documented in the R database I have.

Bill, thanks for sending me that link when it popped back up.

It is interesting to note that the VIN number used was for a 95 V6 car that was reported stolen on 12/15/2000, then recovered on 03/02/2001, and the titled was "updated" on 03/15/2001. Then resold on 04/30/2001........ :eek:

Ford (Dearborn) has been notified, my connections within are moving quickly to see if this is the car, or the drivetrain from #2.

I believe it is the origonal R chassis with the V6 VIN. Looking at the dates on the V6 chassis's history someone swapped the V6 VIN. Very few people build a 95 6 theft recovery. They are worth more for parts.

It should not have the x-brace from the factory.

However, the tabs the brace attaches to ONLY came on verts and the R chassis.

That is 100% a real R with a fake sticker.

This is when Doc post pictures of all of your wrecks... :) We don't want this one to look like 95r #75!
