Equipment

M Code 292 202hp Thunderbird V 8, Ford O Matic transmission, dual exhaust, body color steel wheels with wheel covers, whitewalls, skirts, bench seats.

Condition

A somewhat basic car and doesnt look like much, but a spectacular time capsule example with original paint, chrome and interior other than the newer carpets It even has the original dealer badge on the tail from a place called Market Motors Paint is a little dull and there are a few touch ups on the hood but overall its great Very good original chrome Lightly discolored interior but its solid and complete Tidy engine bay and undercarriage Odometer shows 44,660 miles, a reading thats entirely reasonable from new, its that well preserved and presented

Market commentary

A mundane but highly original car like this is something of a quandary to value and the failure to find a mutually agreeable meeting ground between the sellers appreciation of its originality and the buyers lack of enthusiasm for its family hauler body style is understandable.
