Yikes ! Another Unicorn.

PLEASE, as you seem to have a wonderful penchant for finding the best of the best as far as deals go, keep a lookout for a mid/early eighties Ford Escort for me. And a cheap Fiat 600 body shell as well. In New England somewhere.

Please !

Did you mean to say that you have an engine and fenders for a two door?

No, I can't find a rear window for the 64 four door sitting here; Cali car, first summer back here it was super humid and the window blew out sitting there. Doesn't hare parts with the dart so it's tough to find.

This isn't in New England, but it'd be worth the drive to get one so clean:

Yup ! ! ! There it is ! ! ! ! ! ! !

Still, it IS to far to travel for a bargain. Fuel for a big Ford Diesel and a four wheel trailer, over night lodgings (or two nights) plus tolls and food.

Expenses would jack the price up beyond the bargain point.

But, yup ! That's the lil' sucker right there !

I don't think so. I've shipped a bunch of cars and it's never cost more than $750.

Cost $1,200 to bring my Austin in from Akron.

But no biggie anyway, I'm not even considering shipping. Gotta be within trailering distance (under two hundred mile) for me to go for a car these days.

Gettin' too old for an over-night.

Check with Dwain Christopherson of Performance Auto on FB. He has a '63 4 door in his yard. I just bought a 318/4 speed Aspen wagon from him for a good price, and will be picking it up in the next couple months.

Not on Facebook, does he have a "normal" web site? I didn't try to search since I think "performance auto" will have a lot of bs links up front lol.

No website, but I do have his email address from when he sent pix of the Aspen.
