    Beautiful condition, and with the wood grain, the red looks great! Highly optioned car, too. Not only power windows and locks, but even has the vent windows and they are not common at all! Would love to see this waiting for me when it is time to go to work!

    Looks like a great car and the price isn't bad for what you get. Too bad it's red!:(

    I really like this car. I spoke with the owner. He said the only option that doesn't operate properly is the hideaway headlights. They haven't worked in 20 years. Has anyone had any experience with this problem? I know they are vacuum operated.

    This car is nearby for me.

    This car is about 15 minutes away from where I work.

    Unfortunately, I am travelling and won't be home until Sunday, April 7th. If you can wait until then, I may be able to give it a personal inspection.

    If it's still available, that might be a good thing to do. This one looks pretty good.

    Usually when this system stops operating, the doors remain open -it's a safety failsafe built in. But in the photos, the headlight doors are closed. Does he mean he has not been able to use the headlights in 20 years?

    The car for sale isn't FordWagNut1979's car, KK. Wag nut's name is Jon, not Bill and he lives in Chicago not in Michigan.

    Yeah, they are very, very similar but the one for sale in Michigan has rocker panel moldings and the gallery pic Squire does not.

    He said that he opens them manually when driving at night. They were that way when he bought the car.
