Original Ford Red 65 (Hell Rot) color combination with matte black bonnet, tail and side skirts. The paint is in good condition, as shown in the pictures, but some polishing and a better finish may be needed in some parts to reach the best conditions. The car may need new chrome on the rear bumper and some other minor exterior details.
• Original XL interior in red. The red external and internal red option was not available in the catalog. This combination is registered on the vin plate and makes this car unique in that it was ordered as such at the factory. The synthetic leather interior has been handmade, using the original seats, of better quality than any Internet coverage. Red carpet on the floor and interior door panels in red. The perforated synthetic leather on the roof lining is original from the factory and has been restored. The interior rear-view mirror is the original 1969. The original leather of the steering wheel has been restored. The center console includes the original VDO clock. The dashboard is covered in an Alcantara-like fabric.
Some original parts have been restored instead of using replicas to maintain originality.
The last vehicle inspection was without a single defect.
This vehicle has never had an accident and is 100% rust free.
The underbody is clean and has been treated with oxidation protection.
