It looked worse than these two guns.... the rust was removed and the frame had about 98% case color and the barrel blue only needed to be touched up in a couple places.

It had been stored on a shelf in a damp cellar in Swampscott, MA within 1/8 mile from the ocean for more than 40 years.

.
remember it well, I had to drop out right after i bid insane but then someone bid certifiable

the next owner posted pics of it on the Fox board after he re-did it-

I remember that Super Fox too. Then the successful bidder came on these forums and the last laugh was on him.

Hmm... I don’t remember that happening. It was a fantastic gun that had seen little use and cleaned up with not a great lot of work.
