    Wow! I know this was the base wagon, but not even a driver's door arm rest? the 306, I assume, is a punched out 302.

    It seems like kind of a strange mix of custom/performance and stock original, with a little Pep Boys thrown in for good measure.

    I agree, Jim, that hood is not my cup of tea. But a neat wagon, nonetheless. I think those door cards are home-made; looks like they didn't bother with armrests.

    Quite the potential, '60 was a nice looking year for Ford.

    If anyone is interested in the vehicle, I can inspect it for you since it is only an hour from where I live.

    If I had the extra cash, I'd buy that for the Wife and have a front plate made that would say "Nana's Banana"!:dance:

    I like these 60 Fords but this one....not so much. Too much "custom" for my tastes.

    Bidding is up to $9,100 with three days left to go in the auction.

    If it sells at this price, and the buyers actually pay up, then I think the seller has done pretty good with this car.

    The price seems crazy high for what you get. But.... I like it too.
    I'd pay maybe 8 grand but no higher.

    Hood takes some getting used to. Can't tell if they actually cut a hole in the hood, but it could be restored with a little effort.

    Sold for $10,100. Seller did pretty well, assuming the eBay buyer actually follows through with the deal.

    Sold again, this time for $8,850. Still pretty good for the seller, if the buyer actually pays. ;)

    Door cards...you watch "Wheeler Dealers", don't you??? LOL! You have to remember that on many cars back then, even armrests were an option! Same thing with passenger-side sunvisors, heaters, etc. You could quite literally "build" your own car with the order blank by checking off whatever options you wanted.
