66 T/A coupe,
« on: April 21, 2022, 11:12:07 AM »
As they very seldom pop up, what is the value of a documented 66 T/A coupe?
Needs resto, as it was raced, it does not have a #'s match engine, does have an alum box and all aprons etc carry the correct K numbers.
Body was never cut on, tubed , original cage and instruments are there.
Basic idea's guys ?
Thanks
john

Rule of thumb IMHO, half of an R-Model price in same condition and race history.

1967 Fairlane GT - 390 4-speed
1970 Mach 1 - 428CJ 4-speed/AC
1971 Mach 1 - 429CJ auto/AC
2005 Ford GT

Howard probably has the VINs of the SA cars.
Also track down Gary Underwood he had done a lot of research on TA cars.  http://www.historictransam.com/Drivers/GaryandTerryUnderwood.html

Kranky,
Yes there are.
Not a Miles or Gurney, but none the less, known.
I hate to be evasive, but we are tying it down as I write.
Respectfully,
John

There has been a list of all the SA TA car serial numbers published. I thought it was here but I couldn't find it. http://www.ponysite.de/pony/history.htm
