I just bought a car I didn't need just because I liked it. If it strikes your fancy,...deal on it.

Looks pretty straight from the photos. Not many like it out there.
At least go take it for a drive.

They are proud of it based on the price but HECK YEAH! I can't imagine anyone in this crowd will try to talk you out of indulging in unnecessary pleasures.
Edit to add: I assume it's a Texas car so maybe the price is okay. I'm used to the rust infested cars of that era from up north that are bondo and rattle canned.

My uncle bought a new LTD from about that period (4 door) with a 428. He pulled a camper all over the country with that car.

could be. Might have been a 429. It was an early 70's model. Before he bought the LTD he was pulling the camper with a Dodge Coronet 318,...couldn't keep rear ends in it so he bought the big block LTD to pull the camper.

Good engine though.
The old power plants had more character.
I have a 410 Edsel motor that needs brought back to life.

Those were nice old road cruisers but the price is a little high.

You can get it for $6500. Probably 4500 when it was new.
