It's amazing to me. How could you not do at least one photo with the whole car in it? Perhaps it doesn't run and it's stored inside with a bunch of other vehicles.

You'll notice that the breather on the oil filler neck is wide open. I was also suspecting that its not a "turn-key" car.
The seller has added a bunch more pictures. This '69 E has an SWB engine lid & grille. There's a reference to a CoA claiming a numbers match, so the engine may have lost its shroud when it lost the MFI. What else did it lose? Front end shot looks like it lost a battle with another car, as the hood fit is pretty far from square. I think some cars are being rushed to market to catch the crest of the wave...
Nice to we the added pictures. It sure is a shiny car with lots of freshly plated hardware. It really misses the mark on originality though. I'm sure a lot of effort (& $$$) was put into this car. The restorer just didn't have much of an eye for year specific parts.
Even with a potentially matching # case, the lack of MFI injector ported heads means a lot of work to get back to an actual E engine. :(
Someone got a lot of car for $39,550. Strikes me as good value.

Interesting that the seller lists it as a manual, and nowhere mentions the Sportomatic. That's a LOT of rust repair needed. Still, with Es climbing, might be worth what it costs to restore.Quote:
