    @Mad_Science: I know. If someone said, you can pick one vehicle here, any one you want, I would have a terrible time deciding--the Ford twins would definitely be in the finalists, but it's all pretty much major pr0n and made me go buy a Lotto ticket.

    Does MadScience know about this????!

    Nice, nice price.
    So nice I said it twice.
    I learned to drive on 65 Country Sedan. I have a soft spot for these classy Fords--two of the best looking years ever, with so little changes between them (narrower tail lights on the 66 and a seam between upper and lower headlights in 66 vs. flat bezel type setting)--
    what's not to love??

    This is a killer deal, depending on a whole bunch of things.

    Mine was more than this, but has the 390 + 4bbl, better wheels but worse body (from what we can see).

    Very nice price, even if I'd have to bump it up to $1600, accounting for the rattle can black paint I'd have to use to try and convince the fiancee that no, it's not a bigass wagon, it's a hearse, so you should be ok with it.

    I'm just lucky that it's sold, it's in Seattle, and I don't really have $1500 to spend anyways.

    @Maymar may have abused the approve comment button: You must have an interesting fiance if convincing her this is a hearse makes it more palatable.

    @FromaBuick6: She was thinking about being a doctor for a while (even wrote her MCATs), and thought it would be morbidly funny to park a hearse in her assigned spot. Interesting is a very good descriptor.

    Nice price.

    By the way here is something strange about wagon names: in French the English word "break" is used for station wagon! It is supposed to be named that way because of the sudden "break" in the roof line at the back, as opposed to the slope in a sedan. Why was the English word picked over a French one is a mystery to me! Maybe a fellow Jalop can enlighten me.

    This is such a nice price that I wonder if we need to assign another form of drug abuse to sellers that are ridiculously under market.

    None more green. Actually, that's not entirely true. My family had a green-on-green-on-green Jeep Cherokee Quadratrac (Borg-Warner 1339 - think Eagle-Jeep hybrid) that featured green-painted steelies.

    Does any car company sell a green car with green interior these days? Has even Porsche given up on this?

    @brandegee: Regrettably, IMHO, car makers have moved away from any kind of imaginative use of color in car interiors. Black and gray are just about the only choices. Light tan is now considered bold.

    Wow ... $1500 for a pretty much turn-key project car? A '66 no less? Nice price!

    You'd have to be on the pipe not to love this one. Gotta love that old-school aqua paint/interior scheme. Combined with the mushy handling, you could just pretend you're floating around in a big swimming pool!
