Even a ford guy would have to admit that this car is a way better spent $20k than anything you could buy new for that kind of money!
The engine was rebuilt in 2001, driven once a week, but only 2000 miles on the rebuild. That guy stays close to home
Here is a message I got from a board member that might help answer that, assuming it is the same car: Buyer should check out the car carefully, and I would probably start by asking if it ever spent anytime in TX and is the current owner the original owner or did he buy it from the original owner? That looks like the car I found in Clear Lake City, TX. about 8 years ago.car was supposed to be 2nd owner, and had frame rot under the battery (Serious Rot) and been run HARD & put away wet!!I would have to say, it is probably the same car, andthere was quite a bit of rust on the car back then.I think we offered $4k for the car, and the owner wanted $6k.
3 on the tree is not rare its unwanted .Now if he would have not been so cheap back in 71 and spent the extra $100 he could probably get the 20k today.
