The '88 USAF U-2 SSP has an original vinyl interior too.

It's got the wrong interior (vinyl), it's missing the certified speedo, and the engine compartment is a complete mess.

that's what i get for only looking at the post pic....
I change my mind on that statement ! I know one thing , those brakes are NOT original !

That is one of those things that really bothers me with some sellers. They play a game and act "dumb" about what they have. End up making claims that have no basis and are clearly false. Then it just becomes a convenient situation where they plead ignorance. But really if you are that ignorant about what you have, why not just stick to what you know so you don't run the risk of misleading someone in such an important transaction.

I recall his department had entries in the in-service division and they may also have been doing recruiting that year. That's the only show I've ever seen him with a uniform on.

Love Keith's car. I think it's the only U-2 known to exist, right? There may be more out there, but the only one that has surfaced. Cool history.

Yep, so far it's 1 of 1. Keep checking out all those Mustang coupes you spot on the streets, in fields, barns, etc. and maybe another one will be uncovered someday.

Just want to echo Michael's comments. I looked at the U2 car when it was still here in Michigan for Charles R. The original owner was an x- Air Force fellow that sold it to him and he restored it. The seats were indeed vinyl.
