Valley, there is no way that is a real Turbo Coupe, it is waaay too nice. That's the 1/24 model kit right? Is that one of the limited edition red Mach 1 TC's and with Goodyear Gatorbacks still on it, Stunning!

Yes. I bought the Photo and Documentation package from the seller when I got it. There are 118 pics and they are all as professionally done as this one. By the way, I also got a 1:24 model kit (of an '87 TC) included with the car, in the same color, not assembled.

And, yes, it's the Mach I model. The Gatorbacks are original and in excellent condition. I was originally thinking I might want to replace 33 year old tires, but I talked to the pros at the locally Goodyear dealer and they said by their condition, there's no reason to replace them. I'll be doing business with them at some point. They could have just taken the $800 for a new set.

Do you have a link to these pictures? I would love to see them.
I certainly don't want to start an argument because I think the factory installed tires are super cool but in my previous career we worked closely with BFG and in talking to their tire engineers they recommended replacing tires after 7 years regardless of condition. You could go a little longer but they frowned on it. I doubt that was a sales pitch either because they were giving us tires at the time.
