Get in line if you are interested. What's up with the white spot where the V8 badge should reside
The '64 I mentioned sold for $21.5K.

Woodgrain dash inserts on a cyclone . hmm

I think you nailed it, John. The instrument cluster looks like it's been restored, looking at the rest of the dash chrome.
Maybe they changed the dash panel out to match the interior? Looks pretty cool
Wonder if it was ordered that way? The original paperwork comes with the car. Would be interesting to see.

yea that black stripe on the door panels looks good with the single black on the dash. looks like they even have chrome trim on the black stripes ,guess they had to make it.

I agree, pretty cool touch. Don't know much about interior options for the car, why I would be interested in seeing the window sticker.
Mine was a baseline model with peeling camera case appliques and that one pitted chrome strip on the door between the rusty black steel top and ratty white vinyl panels

"Rare factory fiberglass hood, purportedly 1 of 2 in existence"

Well I've got one and Comethead has the other, so where'd this guy get his?

Didn't get the sell price for the last one but here's another. https://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/ca ... 25145.html
Really nice red '65

Looks really nice, but it's missing the Cyclone badge on the rear trim panel.

That would be very hard to locate.
Just noticed the split single exhaust, Jim. Looks like my ex's old '78 Poncho T/A.

Hadn't noticed it was a split single, either. Seems strange to go to the effort to do a full rotisserie restoration and not retouch the faded rear quarter badges and flags. The missing rear panel Cyclone badge makes me think that panel is a replacement, which makes me wonder about the "never had any body damage" statement.

I'm betting the fasteners were damaged when it was disassembled for restoration. Seller may still have it.
If not, knock $600 off the sell price- https://www.ebay.ca/itm/124991934851?ha ... Sw2QFhecHW
I've replaced two damaged scripts on my car, looking for a third. It's harder to find than the Cyclone piece, it seems.
