This is my newly restored "F" Bird being sold at the January 2009 Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale AZ on Saturday Jan 17th. Someone got a helluva good deal. Maybe I should have kept it another year or two. It beat it's arch rival the '57 Corvette fuelie (Lot 1263) which only brought $100,000.00. At least it freed up some cash for the restoration of the 1954 Mercury XM-800 Concept Car I'm currently restoring. Read about both of these restorations and more at tbirdsquare.com
