That'll look sexy in that colour when it's done

This "barn find" being restored is PP23U1D1401114 as confirmed by the number plate from Washington State.

Here is the fender tag of this superb numbers-matching SFGT

PS: Interestingly, there is another SFGT at the end of the video:

Thanks for posting this @Fratzog

Does that sfgt at the end appear white? Or light blue? silver?

I think it's the silver car with burnt orange interior that came out of the big Mopar collection in Utah a little while back.

I never hear of those until it's over

Nothing was ever offered to the general public. I never got the full story, but I think someone became friends with the family and bought some of the more desirable cars out of the collection.

I thought I had an opportunity for a connection to them through a friend, but it never materialized.

I had my eye on that GT for a few years before it was sold. That's why I recognize it so easily.

Any photos, in particular the tag pic?

I'm hoping I have enough connections out there to give me a heads up on 70/71 Polaras/Monacos/Furys. I only need 1 top shelf car.
