Am I the Original Owner?
I purchased the car used in 2011 with 130,606 odometer miles; was always garage kept and well maintained.The title prefix is 6, I'm assuming that means I'm technically the sixth owner.
Why Am I Selling it?
When I purchased the car originally, this exact year and model wasn't my first choice of search. I do like and appreciate its unique and rare body style and combination of options; it is a very solid, well made Ford, however I am making room here and would like to see the car bought and driven by a fellow convertible Ford lover. The buyer will be very happy with it.
Must see in person to truly appreciate! I invite and encourage all local parties interested in bidding, to see the car first before buying, though not absolutely necessary. If you like what you see in the photos, there are no surprises. The car starts right up and drives away with no mechanical issues to affect that.
Local pick-up only, unless arrangements for towing/transport made by and paid for by buyer.
Please contact me (Hank) for more details and additional photos, etc.
NOTE: This vehicle is also being offered for sale locally, therefore I reserve the right to end this listing should it sell locally.
Thank you for your interest, Good Luck bidding!
