rocketraider Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Wow. Still has the Ford factory carpet floormats. If you were in the market for a big 70s DeSade, it probably wouldn't be a big deal to color match that paint on the scratch and header panel. Shift indicator is likely a minor issue, either a spring or a wire. Big disadvantage is that at 4500 lb curb weight even the standard 2-barrel 460 would be a thirsty beast. Though to its credit it appears pretty much unmolested underhood. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hudsy Wudsy Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Also, beware of the variable venturi carb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocketraider Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Was Ford using those things that early? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew_Latvia Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Nice car, that could be enjoyed as is. I like condition of the seats and interior. Biggest flaw on the outside of the car is not that paint scratch, but a vinyl top - in one of the photos you can notice problems with vinyl in C pillar area.

Though to its credit it appears pretty much unmolested underhood. I don't think, that there ever was a 2 barrel 460. At least not in the seventies. Also this is not a variable venturi carburettor. I've said this already somewhere here in forum - I wouldn't call a mid seventies Ford 460 a very thirsty engine - on my '74 Mark IV, I easily can get around 12 mpg with original Motorcraft 4300 4 barrel carburettor.

69merc Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 These cars have a cult following. It's not too far gone or molested in any way. I think there's definitely some wiggle room on the price. But being a 2dr and a ht makes it more interesting! It may even be the LAST ht for them. 😎 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
