    Cheap Mav

    Paid the same thing for a 2dr 6cly in Little Rock several yrs ago. Ran and was decent except for interior, check the floor under the carpet and see how bad it is. They can all be fixed one way or the other. Usually caused by rusty cowl vents and they are kind of hard to repair but nothing is impossible. If there are good parts on it at all you could even make more than that off parting it out depending on what you have. They are fun cars to fix up and drive or race. Good Luck with it.

    $250 is a great deal, I paid that much for my 71 Grabber I6-200 w/Manual Trans. I say get it but as stated before check the floor boards usually the floor panels are the first things to go in these cars, Ford was never one for rust proofing. Mine are ok except for the right rear passenger one which is rotted away.
