This just went for $57k, so I don’t think $45k is out of line for a nice car that presents that well. Like any other collectible musclecar, its all about verifying the pieces there. It needs to have a correct ‘62 solid lifter 406 block, C2SE-B or -C heads, a correct BW T-10 transmission, a correct trio of Holley carbs, 3” front brakes, Kelsey Hayes 15x5-1/2” wheels (they’re $2k a set), etc.

Neat cars (that’s why I’m tom406) but a bit of a niche collectible, as even Ford guys sometimes have to be educated on what a 406 is (only offered late ‘62 and early ‘63).

Would love to see pics if you get it.

Do Marti reports go back that early? Would be nice to have this if records go back that far. Good luck - keep us posted!
