Rare and orignal 67 Ford Country Squire Wagon, not to be confused with the regular Galaxie this was the top of the line with the wood trim and GXL grille.<br />
<br />
Same lady owner from new in 67 until 06 when she passed away then purchased from her estate by a mechanic at her local garage who refreshed the car mechanically. The car starts, runs and drives superbly. I also have with the car the original handbook and the sought after factory build sheet. Currently the car is fitted with period correct American Slot Mags but the original hubcaps are present if you wanted to source a set of steels and return to a more stock appearance<br />
<br />
The car is mostly original as far as i can tell, part of the roof and one fender have been painted but otherwise it looks to be original with some fading, patina and minor marks from years of daily use. The underside of the car is superb with original unwelded floors and rocker panels, the rear tub and spare wheel well are solid, unusual for one of these, the tailgate is solid. <br />
<br />
Inside the car is lovely with a virtually perfect dash pad, stunning aqua blue rip free seats and clean cargo area with additional under floor storage. All the guages work, the heater works, the original radio works.<br />
<br />
The 390ci motor starts first time and runs like a swiss watch, i was told its been rebuilt with hardened seats for unleaded and although i have no evidence of this the way it runs and drives i can totally believe it. The car is a pleasure to drive, the power steering is finger light, the C6 transmission is supersmooth and the recently overhauled power brakes stop reassuringly.<br />
<br />
I have been using the car daily for the last month with no dramas and would confidently drive it anywhere, im genuinely not fussed if it sells or not. As with any old car there are no guarantees and bits and pieces that need doing but overall I believe its a great car with years of fun left in it.<br />
<br />
Call me for an honest description of the car, if you"re genuinely interested i have a 10 mintue walkaround video of the car and a link to lots of detailed photos.<br />
