Noticed something interesting

[RickM]

I noticed this when going through some of the archives I've saved from various ebay auctions.

I have a picture of 06#414 (Blue) from the original ebay auction that shows it missing the first part of the vinyl side stripes (just behind the front wheels).
#414 was at the August rally, and my pictures from the rally show this issue has since been fixed.

Then I pulled up a picture of 06#413 (Black), and it had the same problem - 2 cars in a row!

(411 & 412 look fine, as well as 416 & 417...I don't have a pic of 415)

Just curious if anyone else has observed this?
Surprised this passed final inspect at Wixom.

Good catch!! 0413 and 0414 were both made 12/9/2005, as was 0143, 0231, 0298, 0298, 0336, 0345, & 0375, - these were the only other GTs made the same day as 0413 and 0414. 0411 & 0412 and 0415 & 0416 were made different days, weeks, or even months as in the case of 0415, it wasn't made until 1/24/2006.

I have dealer ebay pics of all those, except 345 & 375.
(fyi - 298 is Lemansz and 375 is Raddox)

None show the same problem...but that doesn't mean the dealer didn't catch the problem upon delivery, and have it fixed before posting the pics on ebay.
Interesting....

Thanks,
Rick M.
