Hi:
My name is Victor Milke and I am about to finish repainting my Mark II. I've had the car very little and know almost nothing about it (technically, as I do know the story and mistique around it... I've lusted for one for 20 years")
The car just turned 49,000 original miles today and was a great original to start with. I did a good paint job on it and repaired a few details.
My data plate says:
Serial no C56N3520
D22-1E6L D22 (Medium gray iridiscent, 1957 color only) 1E6L (Trim code, 1 leather/leather, E Deep Gray biscuits, 6 White bolsters, L Deep gray Leather welt)
I understand there were no options except for air conditioning, which the car has and since last week, works beautifully.
I live in Mexico, where the car has been since the early 80's. It was originally from Florida, if I understand correctly.
I am very happy with the car but do have a few questions about it that I will be posting in the technical section.
Thanks,
Victor
