Notes:
This car was purchased by my grandfather in 1983 from an individual in Lawrence, Kansas and was
driven to Jamestown, ND. The car had been purchased previeously in 1965 by the Lawrence, Kansas
individual. It is now owned by me as I rescued this baby blue and white 2DR Hardtop from a
barn where it was stored.
The color is original EEE code, but my grandfather had the top and insert painted Powder Blue.
I am excited to work on this project and drive it. I am a GM man but am impressed with the
many inovations on this vehicle over the typical Ford products of the era.
