1970 FORD XL 2 DOOR CONVERTIBLE

VIN# 0E61H264464

This is a RARE find!! This car has been restored to about 90%. This car I believe is not a Galaxie nor is it a LTD. This is just a XL model (according to my research) with the 351 Windsor CID 8 Cylinder 2 V engine. Received original options sheet from FORD manufacture and it states for this VIN the 61 is for Ford XL 2 Dr Convertible. (No Galaxie or 500 mentioned) Its original color was Ivy Green metallic exterior paint. Kiwi & vinyl bench seat, Black in color. Power convertible w/glass back lite, black in color, Automatic transmission. Standard ratio 2.75 non-locking rear axle. G78 x 15” wide oval white sidewall tires. Body style moldings. Power steering. AM radio and left hand remote control mirrors. I have the letter from FORD. Now for the history of the car. The history that can be found only goes back to the 3rd owner in which it was purchased for $900.00 in 1998. The car came from Baltimore and had an emblem from Tower Ford. It was lost in the restoration of the car. Then the car was purchased in June 23, 1990 with approx 46k original miles. This person kept it for 4 years 4 months and only put on approx 15000 miles. This person paid $2300.00 for the car and invested about $12000.00 in restoring it, have receipts. The current owner then purchased it then on Oct 21, 1994 and the mileage had 62,189 miles. Owned it for 8 years and it only has 68,189 original miles on it now. More restoration was done and spent $9,586.00 on engine and cosmetics. Have all receipts and work that has been done to it.
