    very nice but the 89 Colony Park with 23,000 mile and leather that was just auctioned at RM in Santa Monica only pulled $9350 - This car started as a base model - roll up windows - and was added on. no mileage stated in add
    I wouldn't go above 6 g's

    2 pictures, none of interior, nice description, but sure more needs to be done.
    Still $3500 too high at the least - almost a $6,000 wagon - almost!

    Rebuilt top end of engine only at suspected 169K miles? There go those alarm bells again. Everything I've heard about that practice says it's a recipe for disaster as the increased compression of the rebuilt heads will put added stress on the high mileage rings, bearings, etc. Of course, if it blows the compression rings soon enough, there won't be any to put stress on the bearings, will there? Problem solved. Just what I want in a nearly $10K car.
    Also, I'm not sure that Woodgrain 4 Wagons had the correct transfer for Panther chassis Fords.
