Was my car built on a Friday?
I'm very surprised by how poorly my cougar looks. It's an early production 67 (~6500th built).
I find it's.... Quite poor.
There's masking tape that was painted over and left in place. There are globs after globs of seam sealer everywhere. It was painted over a greasy surface and paint has been flaking off. Some areas don't even have paint. That's throughout the car. The trunk is full of goopy stuff that's now hard and falling off.
I found the shifter boot as it is on that picture - all out of place.
I think it is factory as don't think it was repainted. And it's consistent everywhere (engine bay, interior, trunk).
Oh, and the VIN stamped on the fender is wrong too. They manually stamped the corrected VIN to the side of it.
Are they all like that? Or was mine built on a Friday before labor day?? Haha
