I think the "best offer takes it" is bull poop if I offered 1000.00 and it was his highest offer... you know he won't take it.... I dislike the no price deals
I have to admit that this intrigues me. Imagine picking it up in Southern Ontario for what is actually worth in today's market, driving the snot out of it all the way across the country in massive comfort, and getting a ticket in Vancouver for taking up three parking spaces at the Vancouver Aquarium. Endangered species, here's another whale for ya, David Suzuki, you sanctiminoius twit.
I think I have to contact him, my eldest is getting Married in June and that would make a heck of a ride to church, nearly the same as the one that took her Mom, although a few years newer.

The whole wedding party will be quite comfy. I love it! This is one of those cars that is so big, when you get into an accident its like you're not even all that involved, heh heh
My Mom and Dad had 76 Fleetwood for a half dozen years. We traded a 19" black and white TV for it, the guy thought the motor was about to blow up. The power steering fluid was low and the pump was howling... lol
Yeah, they're pretty bullet proof. My Dad figured if the guy really wanted an old black and white TV so bad who was he to argue? My Mom daily drove that car for years...the irony being my parents were so hard up for cash at the time. This was during the recession in the early 80's. The only downside was that it was pretty hard on fuel. It rode so soft too. Speed bumps were just suggestions for the most part.
I just checked the specs on this car, it's 7" shy of being 20 feet long it accelerates to 60 in 12.8 and 100 in 13.2, haha I guess she's really hauling by the time 60 comes up, we won't talk about 1/4 mile time.... it gets 12.2 mpg and tips the scale at 5,357 pounds. Whoa !
PS: if its fuel injected it does a bit better on all counts.

Priced to sell, this beauty is ready to go! Make me an offer! $5900, or a reasonable offer. I can't give it the time and love it needs to make her a show car, once again. The transmission has recently been rebuilt, she needs a new battery but she runs. I am showing clear photos of the few spots of rust, the one small dent, and the interior so there are no surprises. Nothing major, especially if you plan on any restoration work.
In 1962, only 600 of these cars were ever made, probably less than 50 now exist running and in original condition. This is your chance to get one that hasn't been molested, screwed up, or is just a rust bucket sitting in a scrap yard somewhere.
Lucille Ball had one, so did Jimmy Hoffa, and Marilyn Monroe. This car exudes class, refinement, and an elite sophistication.
Low ball offers will not be considered, I know the value of this automobile. If you do as well, please contact me. The car is not insured so you will have to make arrangements with a local tow company. I can help with that, if you need. There is one that will take special care of this special one of a kind.
'64 Parisienne CS "barn find" - last on the road in '86 ... Owner Protection Plan booklet, original paint, original near-mint aqua interior, original aqua GM floor mats, original 283, factory posi, and original rust.
These are huge cars. A good friend had one years ago when I had a Lincoln Town Car. The Cad was faster, better on fuel by a wide margin and better looking. If I had a place to keep one I would be tempted.
Great wedding car Ray.

I've never seen one of these with Fuel Injection. Seen a 76 Eldo convert. still in Woodstock with it as well as all the 76 Sevilles with the 350 Olds engine. But most of them have been changed over to carbs by now.
The carb'ed 500's could lay rubber pretty well too. My buddy Rick's sure did. That car just walked away from my Lincoln 460 from a dead stop and never looked back.
