I have had this car about 7 months, I do not know the history on this car, or where it'sbeen. I purchased it in Las Vegas NV.I purchased this car as a classic weekend driver because it has all 4 going for it. This car is rust free, decent looking paint, has nice interior, and a solid drivetrain drive. This is not a perfect car.I have never seen one really old that is. I drive this car once a week a couple miles to the grocery store. I keep this car clean, waxed,garaged and I keepthe fluids up, the battery charged, and the tires aired up.

This is a great classic driver. Starts right up, no funnynoises, sounds great, solid heavy car, classy car, best looking of the mark IV before the bumpers changed more classic looking. The sound of the 460 big block engine roaring down the road and the smell of a carburetor. Driving down the road with 10 feet of hood in front of you while sitting in a lazy boy in a massive landyacht floating down the road with your family worry free to the drive through in a car that represents America in the 1970's. Thats what this car represents to me. Real classic American steel car from the 70's this is whatAmericancars were all about. Made back when bigger was always better.
