No way of knowing unless you visually inspect it.

Agree with 19Fordy, with reserve taken off at that low of price something major must have been needed. Woodie values do depress me though.

Pebble Beach isn't the "best" location to be auctioning off a V8 Ford, by and large the clientele there is there for the "True" Classic's....Lincoln's Packard's Deusenberg's Cadillac's etc etc and IF not the true classics then the Ferrari's Porsche's, Lambo's Mercedes etc etc. From experience.......getting comments about having "NICE little Ford" were abound out there!!!

Don't you just hate the Uppity Ups with their noses so high in the air they would drown in a rainstorm?
