Hi Ron
here's my very original Delete Special CK17ME33191P in original 1972 condition except for the changes by previous owner: VIZ, new 2.5 inch straight thru Exhaust, 12 slotter 7" Chromies, Silver Paint Stripes over original "Wild Plum", Silver Paint on Bonnet & Boot, Bonnet Lock Pins, and Headlamp Switch renewal. Was very surprised to see Genuine Factory 1972 Original Ignition Coil not only still in situ, but tested-up as 100% serviceable. This and the the exemplary condition inside the engine when I dis-assembled it, tells me this engine has not done high mileage or had a stressful life.
IXI481 was the original regio and previous owner kept it fully paid till 5 years ago while it sat in storage for over 15 years in Ballarat !
FoMoCo Campbellfield has sent me a Certificate of Authenticity proving all of Ford Facts above, with all Matching Numbers
Pictures are how it was found in Ballarat.........externally not much has changed
Drivers seat was completely collapsed and I had to drive it home from Ballarat to South Frankston on multiple Pillows!
