John... There is two all Ford shows in Texas that I know of. One is in Austin that Tom attends and the other is in FT Worth call the Yellow Rose which I attend. Both great shows. I believe both indoors. When your done with your resto on your car lets us know we would love to get together and set up a DPS exhibit.

If I remember right. your vehicle may have been driven by a License and Weight Trooper. I know the ones I would see that had Single Spots were driven by L&W Troopers and Duals driven by Highway Patrol.

You may be correct about L&W. This would be very good news for me, two of my uncles retired as L&W Troopers, and I was a Commercial Vehicle Enforcement (previously License & Weight) Investigator when I left the Department last year. There are still some clues in the car I am investigating. The front and rear windshields have the little rear view mirror mounting tabs (as were used for RADAR antennas) there are 4 non-factory holes in the pan of the trunk, red and white reflective tape fashioned into safety markings just inside the space of the tail lamps, where it can be seen while trunk is open, and several others. The inside has had a pampered life, not your typical gun butt seat hole. Here is a goody I got in the mail today.

The holes are where the Eye Bolts were that anchored the Scales in place. If you are still in good with anyone at Fleet in Austin, I would try and see if they had any old Scales there. What are the last 6 of your VIN.

I was trying to go through my old Auction Brochures to see if I saw you car but I did not see it in the ones I have. Have you run a Title History on it?

I have not done anything in the way of title search or carfax yet. What is the best way to do that?

Your insurance company can run a history search for you. Carfax sucks IMHO.
