    It is rare and only 1 of 2 because of the 362 engine. All the others had a 360.:wave::disagree:

    is it a legit ad? the date on the pic is old. i hope the engine size is a typo, maybe 360 2 bbl. its fair price assuming the pics are current.

    I guess the seller doesn't get around much..........

    Sure, they're not all over the place, but there's more than 2......

    He must mean 2 in that odd color,, My history book shows 11,049 total to include 4 doors & wagons NOT the Coupe.:tiphat:
    304 base V8 for wagon and 360 option . Only 20 Matadors had the 401 in 1976 (law enforcement only)

    You are referring to the 1976 model year only, rite?

    The wagon is close to me. I have asked for more pictures. Seller says 80,000 + miles. If I get more details I will update. Sounds like a nice Wagon.

    the color is fawn beige and its common. i see some rust on the back bumper. if the other pics look as nice, and it has a high level of equipment, then it should be nice wagon. i miss my matadore lol

    I have been in touch with the seller. It sounds like an estate sale which would explain the lack of knowledge of the car. I will keep everyone posted. I have verified the car has been in NE Ohio for at least 3 years...
