Quite true: I have my "sniper rifle" ready for a last minute shot!

I see someone has already "accidently" bid 150,000.00 to find out the reserve........

anyway......

to me this is not a car to daily drive. this is garage art that 20 years from now you take to Barrett Jackson and sell for 60k. I look at this car more as an investment. If I want to daily drive one I would buy a standard, non SSP equipped car, but that is just me.

low mile one owner fox mustangs are not hard to find.

super low mile, (1489) never in service SSP cars are very very hard to find.

just my .02

Just talked to my Ford service. Manual conversion possible but too expensive really. I can wait for something else. If I could live with the AOD I would though.

Thoughts?

Agree 100% with your assessment Jim. Documented, in-service history SSPs interest me the most and are the ones that have the wider appeal anyway.
