    I know the history of the car from day One. Built and sold in Ontario,Canada. It was an ordered by a crown corporation ( Ontario Waterworks) and there was supposedly two other identical cars delivered. The original owner was hired to drive this car all over Ontario. During the late 60's...

    Trm code is M2D. Being a Canadian 300 sedan,which was not a available on the U.S., she has a blue bench seat interior. Most decoders cater to U.S. cars which do not have some of the Windsor plant codes.

    Got the hood aligned and adjusted so it closes properly. A friend of Rusty's can now cut and buff the hood to fix some runs and dirt in the clear.

    Rusty knew everybody. Luckily we have mutual car friends that stepped up and the hood got painted. We installed the hood tonight. Still needs to fully harden,then cut and buffed. Moving forward, final assembly will happen quickly.

    Rusty passed away August 30th. 3 days prior he asked me to help finish the car. Saturday was his celebration of life. So I will finish the car for him. His ashes are in an urn showing a black Mustang driving into the sunset. Very cool. I met Rusty over 30 years ago. He was at a local coffee/...

    Windsor/Newport seats but with 300 front door panels and engine turned dash applique. Engines painted red and usually everything else attached to it including overspray on the trans bellhousing, and p.s.pump. Being the " sporty" model the 383 4bbl engine was standard in Canada.

    As I sit in our garage, been polishing trim getting it ready to install. Over the years the car was repainted or at least repaired in a few areas. Overspray on the trim is one clue. I always remove the overspray to give a clean and bright appearance.

    Some of you may remember this car but for the newer members may not know about it. 12 years of history is documented on the old Dry Dock. I tried to give the Dry Dock CPR but no luck.
