Not Ranked
Except that if it's accurate history you want, you can delete paragraph three in its entirety. FAV (Ford Advanced Vehicles) was a sales outlet for Ford products not normally sold in Europe. If you wanted a big-block Shelby Cobra, you dealt with them. 3301 was ordered through Intersport, a foreign car dealership in Paris, and FAV supplied them the car. It was a stock street car, with a 428, sunburst wheels, no hood scoop, no roll bar, and a standard unpolished engine bay and trunk. The idea that it was modified when new by FAV is a fantasy.
