1971 Ford LTD Country Squire

I think this is the fourth different green '71 Country Squire posted in the last few weeks. Clean machine...

 

$3,152.57 in 1971 dollars = $18,900.04 in 2013 dollars.

Anyone remember what this car would have sold for in '71?

 

as always, "Oh, to have won he lottery allready."

 

I'm guessing the sticker would have been in the $5,200 neighborhood, give or take. Just a guess. Also, chances are, it didn't come new with those wheels, either.

 

Wheels on 71 Ford Country Squire.

While I may not be thrilled with the tires, those are the rims I would like on my 69. They are obviously NOT for original appearance. Still, I just like the look. Price is currently around $150/rim on EBAY.

 

Actually, the Kelsey-Hayes Magnum 500 chrome Road Wheel was either a Ford factory-installed wheel, or a dealer-installed option, depending on the car line. I see no reason why this would not be right on this car, especially as a dealer option. The wheels and tires make this wagon pop!!! I would dig owning this car.

 

_______________^^^^^^^ Me too! I sort of remember those wheels as an option, at least on 1970-71 cars. Looks like a new wagon.

 

What a beautiful CAR!! !!!

With bench seat and roll ups.

 

Well I didn't win the lottery tonight either, so I guess it will not be coming to my house. lol.

 

Oh, I know you could get those wheels on the big Fords, I was just saying I didn't think this wagon would have come with them originally. Just my hunch......

 

Now those are appropriate tires and wheels for that wagon! Stunning look. Like the CB. Nice touch.

That's a spectacular looking Squire, but I don't think they will get that price for it. If it had the 429 V8 and all power options, then maybe.

 

except for the holes drilled into the other wise dash for the mike.....


I'll stick take the wagon though, flaw and all

This car had been for sale for at least a year on Craigslist when I tried to buy it over the phone in June 2010. The seller was located in Madison, WI and I believe was asking something like $5,500 at the time. Silverfox offered to look at the car for me, but the seller wasn't willing to a long-distance deal over Craigslist. I even offered to use an escrow service, but I think the seller thought I was a scammer. There's no way this car is worth $19,000, but that's just my opinion.

 

Yup...I rermember this car, tiger. IIRC, the car was just outside of Madison in Oregon, WI.
Says $6000....where are you seeing $19,000?
