Me and a couple buddies saved this one from the derby guys for 600$. For 75,000 miles, the paint and interior are in pretty nice shape. The dipstick that bought it from the original owner smoked the beaings in the 360, so we rebuilt it. Swapped on a good used master and new brake lines, hijacked the rubber from my coronet, and we're in buisness! I got it running last week and have put 250 miles in the last 4 days. It runs and drives great! The 360 has big valve J heads, eagle rods, speed pro pistons, mild summit cam and a thermoquad. Got 15mpg on a treasure hunt today.

I like . Got my eye on one too. 71 Newp Coup. Not certain what happened but, it was replaced by a late 70s Town Car on the driveway, and is next to the garage now - baking in the sun.
