I have a 1st cousin that's like my brother, and wanted to get him a 1962 300,manufactured in his birthyear. I sent Fred the S/Ns to search for, thankfully he found one after arduously looking through his collection on the 34th attempt. My cousin came up from Florida for a funeral this weekend, his birthday isn't until November. I didn't know if I would see him then, so I decided to go ahead and give it to him. I had told him last week I had something to give him and he assumed it was some practical joke, as we like to "cut up". When I gave it to him it was like the most special gift he had ever received from anyone, really emotional. He hugged me and I was so glad I did it. I wasn't expecting how much it meant to him. His father passed away in July and they always went flat fishing in the panhandle every year. I told him we must go flat fishing and test it out. Fred made it happen, thank you.
