Thanks for the photos.

FYI - Your gas cap wasn't moved, the early cars had them inside.

Your front grill gets a lot of little gravel and rocks hits. If you just rattle can it black, you will have to keep doing it. A good blasting and satin black powder coat paint job will hold up much better. It is a small part and you should easily get it done by a shop for no more than $75.

Also all the Ford cars had no catalytic converters - waaay to early for them, thank goodness.

The Amerisport Panteras put together in the late 80's did have cats, but that is another story.

What is the VIN number? We usually refer to our cars by using the last four numbers.
