    A beauty. Brings back memories. My best friend's family had one of these back then.

    What's the after-market gauge on the left side of the dash under the fuel gauge? Tom

    You mean this thing? I'm guessing it's nothing fancy, just a thermometer so he knows the car's interior temperature.

    No reserve auction is pretty gutsy for a wagon. I guess he could always pull the ad if the bids don't come in like he wants. In the pictures the car looks like it is in amazing condition.

    I think we've seen this before.

    Very unusual combination -- power seat but manual windows.

    Also -- anyone out there with sharper eyes than mine who can tell for sure? If I'm seeing the valve covers correctly, this is a 351W not a Cleveland.

    Listing pulled before end of auction. Bidding up to $6,900 before it disappeared.

    That's a beautiful wagon. Awesome condition. Assuming someone came along and offered them enough to end it early. That does look like a Windsor valve cover.

    Zero feedback seller. Seller either (a) learned something more about how eBay works and decided to alter listing or (b) someone offered to buy the car outside eBay and save the seller the $125 "successful listing fee". I'm guessing (b).
