Well the deposit has been accepted and I will be heading out to get the 68 FB 400 Survivor after the Memorial Day holiday weekend. The way I see it, owning a survivor is the best way to have a collector car; you have to maintain them but you don't have the expense of making them better than they were coming of the line back in the day. Way too many trailer queens out there today IMHO.
This may not a rare bird by its numbers but it is a born with everything including drive train and all sheet metal and is a documented 40K mi car.
It should be fun to show up at the local shows or go for that "ice cream" to justify driving it every now and then.
Restoring and maintaining old cars and old boats....oh what fun we invent for ourselves. Seems to go in stride with ....You don't live it until you own it....Three steps forward....two steps back ....
