    Mercury wasn't shy about using vinyl.:rofl:

    They should have placed a life-sized Jack Lord dummy on the passengerside seat, to distract potential knowledgable buyers?

    With Hawaii Five Oh McGarret's dummy in the vehicle, all that's missing is Walter Brennan's decal applied either on the hood or on the offending passenger side Headlight cover:

    The thing is it's most likely that only wagon geeks like us would even think of buying a car like this.

    Assuming the new Ebay listing is a flip. Original Hemmings ad was out of Michigan. New Ebay listing is out of New Jersey. According to the Ebay description, that nasty dent / scratch occurred during transport.

    New seller doesn't seem to know much. They listed the engine as a 428, not a 429.

    Well that sucks to be Dean if he only got the car to flip it. Regardless, you buy a nice car weather you want to keep or flip and it arrives with a shmucked up rear quarter. But according to Dean the seller, it's just minor.....just needs minor dent removal. minor bondo, new wood that won't match or re-wood the whole car................

    He's getting even more realistic and motivated by the minute.

    I guess third time is a charm. Sold for $8700 this time after no bids at $6000 last time around.
