If you need to hunt down a Tinny sounding Rattle look no farther than the Air Cleaner Snorkel resting on that little Metal Box.  No one has said anything about the "Caution Fan" sticker yet.............  ::)

I really love the bragging of it being a 'concourse' restoration, and he then begins by saying the paint is polished like glass.  That's how they did it at Shelby American.

     Taiwan export brace , rust on the vacuum advance , missing paint on the end of the head gold iridite finish on the brake booster ( caution fan) , I stopped after that.

Oh man. Even Stevie Wonder wouldn't know where to start. But hey, at least they got them there LeMans stripes and tires spot on, huh? Not many people get them right on a concous(e) KR like this fella did.

   For those who are thin skinned and think we are nothing but a buck of vultures , I offer this age old statement.

     Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof!

   THAT is why (by ME anyway) criticism is being voiced. The claims are not backed up by the visuals.

Concours  is over used. Should just say a comprehensive restoration/refurbishment and leave it at that. Yes, the first thing I looked for was the "CAUTION FAN" sticker...LOL Gary
