GOOD NEWS
Mike and other Fordbarners,

That car sold for $29,000, April 15, 2016 at the Houston Mecum Auction.
Maybe it was a "flood car" as that price seems low.

You definitely made the right decision. Looks like someone is "bidding it up" on a regular basis. It's a Mecum Auction car that seller is 'flipping". No photos of under carriage or engine is problematic for such an allegedly highly restored car. Would be interesting to do a search and find what Mecum auction it was sold at and for how much.
Glad you didn't get burned.

Found it. Same car was offered at Mecum Auction in Houston, April 14-16 in 2016.
