Almost looks like a Skylark with a Ford face. Looks a little shabby, under the hood, though, for that price:

 

Not a bad car for the price. At least under the hood looks like a car with those miles should look.

 

Well, it's your money. You would think that Hemmings would be somewhat more demanding on their clients, though. It's not the authentic effects of time which are bothering. It's the lack of attention to detail. Such as those cheap aftermarket electrical connectors on that soleniod and that ground connector at the left of the battery. There is also some wire which crosses over the top of the battery. If you're expecting museum vehicle prices, you should at least get out the copper connectors and a soldering gun, to do things right. Someone toting that much cash around is likely to have a trained eye, for such flaws. And these aren't major assignments, either.
Nice view. If they'd go down a few thousand, it would be worth investing in factory buckets and console:

 

This is what one of those should look like, under the hood, for that money:



What it should look like within:





Another embarassment for FoMoCo, in that they lacked the balls needed for putting this one into production:
