How can you tell it's real????When you see a real one that is original & unrestored,you can tell.....Saturday,3-22-03, I saw CSX 2397 (99% sure of the #) at the regonal Mustang Car Show in Pensacola,Fl., It's the little blue slab side,looks to me totally unrestored and used... Saw it drive-up to register and I was at least a hundred yards away,opposite end of the lot,then he disappeared,I found it about an hour later,but no one around,hung around a while and came back a few times,but never found the owner....This little car shows dings,dents in the front and rear hoops and the AC on the clutch pedal is about 85% wore off...still looks good to me,to others,it looks pretty rough,but to me it looks it's age and shows it's use,that's the way I like em....

Wish I coulda found the owner and spoke to him,he was only there saturday and we left Sunday morning about 9:30 am....BTW,I won third place in my division with my 65 GT-350 look-a-like..... Two original GT-350s there,one a 65 and the other a 66,both white with blue stripes,one a supercharged Hurst for sale (45k) and the other there for the show,was driven in I believe,do not know from where though....Both looked to be unrestored or at least an older restoration and they did have some bumps and bruises,but again,that;s the way I like em.....
