    I've never seen one with the 2 tone blue, and I have to say, I REALLY like that! This would be a great entry-level car for anyone who wants a collectable that can be driven. A good set of tires is all that is needed to make it quite able to handle any modern traffic you care to throw at it. Wish I had the money. This is about number 3 on my wish list. The Thunderbird and the LTD II wagon are numbers one and two, but don't ask me which order.

    Seller seems to have the 'brochure photo' car...

    Ford did a good job with the design of the stripes / etc. on this sport appearance package. Just too bad they didn't sell many...

    The 'look' I believe originated from the Starsky & Hutch Torino, just revised to fit the slightly different body.

    I agree those are beautiful colors together on that car.
    Sure rather have that than one of the newer cookie cutter cars out today.
    It's got new tires. All it needs is a new owner.

    The rear of the LTD II is, of course, different than the T-bird or Cougar, so popping on a T-bird or Cougar front clip would make for an even cooler car.

    This I agree with, the Cougar front with the LTD rear would be a nice combo:2_thumbs_up_-_anima
