This months Mustang Monthly (Dec '14 P.36) has an article on a 1986 1D SVO with 112,000 miles and the original paint!
Purchased new by son and then sold to his dad to keep it in the family.
Another cool thing is it mentions GT Turbos in the write up. Not too many people even know what they are...
I'll try and scan the article later and post it.

I wasn't sure how to handle pdf files so I put them on the TurboFord server.
Here are the links:

112,000 mile SVO-1 (http://www.turboford.org/faq/SVO-1.pdf)
112,000 mile SVO-2 (http://www.turboford.org/faq/SVO-2.pdf)
112,000 mile SVO-3 (http://www.turboford.org/faq/SVO-3.pdf)
112,000 mile SVO-4 (http://www.turboford.org/faq/SVO-4.pdf)

The files will download and then open in Adobe Reader. Best I could do...

You can attach PDF files here also. Lots of he attachments in the Red Baron Documentation thread are PDF files.

I don't recall the size limit off the top of my head.

Thanks Mike, sometimes I can be a bit interweb challenged. :(
The files are 1800 KB to 2800 KB.

I'm sure that's too big by default. If I have time tomorrow, I'll do something with them. They're 90 degrees off, for example.

Only the first one. :p
I did that because the pic spanned two pages and I was able to get the whole thing by putting the magazine in the scanner sideways.
TIA if you have time to mess with them.

Mostly almost readable. Text would be more clear if you saved directly as GIF (large) or JPG from your scanner software.

Thanks Mike! I will make a note of your suggestions for future reference. What is the size limit for uploads?

Your welcome Joe. Our cars don't get much ink in the mags so when I see an article I share it with all.

What is the size limit for uploads? Depends on the file type (extension). Most are limited to a max of 350,000 bytes (just Under 350Kbytes) which usually translates between 1280x1024 and 1600x1280 in jpg file format, 24-but color.

GIF files are larger for the same color depth and resolution cause they can contain layers, animation and other stuff. So the res will be lower for the same file size.
