Longer than most our wagons I recon.

 

Is that really 8200 miles?

Here's a nice article about this- the last of the autosaurus giganticus

Like the first comment;


"I love cars that have efficiency of design in terms of space and fuel usage.

This car has none of that.

And I want one".

 

Ideal for taking a hamster to the veterinarian.

Is ~20 miles from me. So tempting.

 

Beautiful Town Car, but puleeezzzee, somebody throw some whitewalls on there.

 

Land yacht? My Ranchero has been accused as being an aircraft carrier! Funny aside: I saw a '79 LTD sedan in red/white that you could tell was a fire chief's car at one time; the license plate was "FYRBOAT."

 

Yes, the sheer size of these jumbo jets is amazing by contemporary standards when a Camry or Impala is considered "full size" now!

 

These things are very coo,though I've only recently started to notice that.

As for whitewalls, I can'stand them on anything. Black or RWL the only way to roll for me.

 

YES! Wide white walls. There's an old guy here with Coker wide whites on his blue Town Car.

 

Used to work Security at a property with too much parking structure. A nearby auto dealer used it to store extra cars. 1999 Ford Taurus's were labeled as Large, when brand new.:confused: My 1977 Dodge Apenwagon was once proclaimed, by a younger co-worker, as being "HUUUUUGE!!!"

 

Talked to owner. He corrected typo in ad from 8200 to 82000.
So not a low mile cream puff find.
If no interest a current price I am waiting for drop to $1500 or below then might take a look. Price per pound gets real low at that point.

 

finsrin If this one is as nice as it looks in the pictures it's well worth $2000.
Most of us don't have anywhere to store the barges you have already.

 

Floating Castle

I currently own a 1975 Lincoln have owned others and with the 460 usually get 20 or above on mileage down the highway 10-14 in town, personally prefer the cloth interiors

 

Our 1974 LTD 460 with 3.25 gears on good day 14mpg highway.
After high flow exhaust and advancing cam 15-16mpg highway.

 

luv these boats- and if cleaned up can bring $5-7 K

 

always try to get the 2.5 gears in the lincolns that might make the difference and that was before this ethanol as well
