Rick, is that response in regards to the car, or the "1976 Comt"

Did you happen to notice the BOSS 429 in one of the pics?

Yup Did you see the intake on the FE?

He also has a 64 lightweight Galaxie on the block and a Superbird type thing. With "0" feedback I think I would have make a personal visit before I layed out any green.

The Q code mustang was the standard CJ428 not the SCJ as far as I know.SCJ should be R code usually with the shaker hood scoop...Also looks like a tunnel port 427 intake..Cetainly not factory 428 stuff.

Ding ding ding... we have a winner!

Actually it's a tunnel wedge intake that fits medium riser heads. Still not an original 428 piece though.

I don't know what that intake is but I do know that this car has the proper W axle code for an SCJ. SCJs were CJs ordered with either the V or W axle code denoting either a 3.91 or a 4.30 rear gear ratio. When you ordered the steep ratio, you got the LeMans rods and the oil cooler, etc. designed to keep the thing together. I'm no authority, but I do believe that the Supers can be R code ram air or Q code non ram air. Well, now that I wrote that, I have to go and check it on www.428cobrajet.org
Here you go...
428 Super Cobra Jets were available both with ram air induction (identified with VIN engine code "R") and with a standard air cleaner assembly (identified with VIN engine code "Q"). The engine code isn't what determines installation of a Super Cobra Jet engine; it's the rear end codes of "V" (3.91:1 Ford traction-lok) or "W" (4.30:1 traction-lok or Detroit Locker) that make the difference.

I don't care one bit about all that SCJ talk you guy's are sputtering about with, but I do know this...

The bottom of that car is as genuine as my lack of interest in the chevrolet Vega!

I agree Gary, that looks like new paint over dirt and grunge on the bottom of that car to me.

Didn't I see a rust hole on the drivers side rear wheel well where it meets the truck floor ?

I would do him like people did me when I had my low mileage original Mustang. Show me judging scores & the class it was in, Mustang Club of America only

Well, my buddy went to look at the car. He owns a R code Fairlane among a stable of other cars. Says the car seems to be correct but they took a spray bomb to the bottom of the car. Now for the best part, the guy has a reserve of...............are you ready.................sit down, here it comes
$225,000.00
His opinion is that its a #3 condition car.

As MLK once said I have a dream...........
