G’day,
The good people at Ford sent me a verification letter for my AU1 XR8. It says the dealer was “3999 Ford Motor Company”. All the other verification letters I’ve seen list a particular dealer. Did Ford sell direct from the factory? It has the Tickford body kit, Momo steering wheel and gear knob but doesn’t have a Tickford plate. I’ve heard dealers also fitted Tickford parts to new cars and so they didn’t get a Tickford plate. But this dealer is Ford itself...confusing? We know AUs were released in September 1998 and this one being stamped July ‘98 means it was a pretty early one. Maybe Ford used it for something? Anybody have any insights or ideas? Cheers and beers! |
