Vehicle Description
It's hard not to get excited about an interesting car like this for such a value price. After all, when was the last time you saw a 1978 Ford Fairmont? So this very original coupe with interesting upgrades will pique any enthusiast's interest, and that's before you dive into the interesting details.
The Fairmont was a nice family car when it was new, but just like Ford's Falcon or Fairlane, it has matured into the kind of classic that we love to be around because it reminds us of a bygone era. While you already don't see too many of these anymore, this one is a true cut-above in its appearance. The original white paint is still on the car, and it coordinates nicely with the premium blue vinyl top and matching pinstripe. There's plenty of original trim, and it's so bright, that it's probably the reason why they added those bold Mercedes-like tri-star hubcaps. But for those who want this as a survivor-grade car, don't worry, the original hubcaps come with the sale, too.
Inside the blue and white theme continues on the original-style interior. The cushy white vinyl high-back split bench has room for three up front (check out the cording blue seatbelts!) or you can utilize the folding armrest for individual comfort. This has a true feeling of 70s glamour with plenty of wood paneling on the door panels, surrounding the gauges, and framing the original AM/FM radio.
You might have noticed the "302 High Performance" badges on the side of this coupe, and why not? After all it isn't lying about the displacement. You have Ford's legendary 302 cubic-inch V8 under the hood. Plus, it shares this motor and Fox platform with the Mustangs of the same era, so anyone who wants to turn this into a cool sleeper already has a great place to start. But for those of you who appreciate this cool coupe as it is today will be happy to know it has been well maintained. Also the automatic transmission has been rebuilt within the last few years. The result is a car that fires right up, pulls strong from the stoplights, and shifts with a smooth confidence. Add in power steering and front disc brakes, and this is a true anywhere, anytime cruiser.
Complete with original warranty card, owner's manual, and maintenance receipts, this is a truly interesting classic for any easy to own price. But since this is priced to be gone tomorrow, you might want to hurry up and call today!!!
