Default FS 65 FI Roadster on eBa, real or fake

According to Jim Gessners registry this car is likely a clone. The serial number on the injector that NOW sits on it is about the right range for the car.

No reserve, then advertised locally, right to end auction early. Smell something?

Trim tag and VIN pics are still in the ad......................just have to scroll about halfway down.

I see a 66-67 Muncie transmission case #3885010.............should be a 3851325 for 1965.

Is it just me, or does the oil pressure seem a bit low in the pic of the instrument cluster with the engine idling at 800 RPM? Maybe just me, but I'd like to see a little more pressure.

trans looks to have a '65 style date = P0407, but again, the casting on the main case (same part as where the P0407 is) is a later Muncie.

Default Certified?

Al does trim tags, vin tags and engine pads. The earlier auction listing wasn't specific.
