$56k spent on restoration and it has the Ford caution fan sticker on the shroud?!?

He's got a picture of a 69 chevelles vin tag that he has in another auction shown with the Z28.  Thats going to hurt his price as people will assume its got a swapped VIN on it.

124379N585908 is the correct VIN.

It was restored over 6 years ago, so it wasn't him that sunk the reputed 56K into it.
Too bad they added style trim and who knows what else.....

 Should the bellhousing be painted Orange on this.

Bellhousing was attached when the block was painted, but coverage varies from a light misting along the joint line to complete coverage, it all depended on who was handling the paint gun that day.

  As cool as it looks with a partial painting, I'd prefer a full coverage to avoid the oxidation that eventually forms on smooth aluminum surfaces.
As Mark pointed out, being it depends on the painter of the time (van Gogh vs. Joe the painter) that gives us restorers more flexibility.
