That driver side hood hinge tho. Needs some love.
Other than that... I can see no issues with that car. Looks like it has the smaller V8 though, I'm not used to looking under those hoods.

Interior looks awesome. Is that factory upholstery?
It's a 460 mangs although hard to tell from a 400 in that pic. Water pump/thermostat is the give away. 460 is like a big 302 in appearance. 351M/400 looks like some alien in comparison. Dry intake, no timing cover, and fuel pump on the wrong side. They even threw a Q jet on some. I see lots of GM influence in those things.1990 Country Squire - under restoration

That's definitely a 460, there is no mistaking those valve covers. Even if you don't know the other differences between the 351M/400 and the 429/460's
They only came on 429/460's.
Although the Mustang BOSS 351C did come with aluminum valve covers close to that.
But it doesn't take long to learn the differences between the 351C covers and the 429/460.

amazing how small that engine looks in that car. If it was a wagon... I might be all over that.

Motor is a 460, just like mine. It needs some interior work, like the very hard to find arm rests. C pillar sail panels need to be redone. Hood hinges. Cracked steering wheel which can cut you ! Typical problems of those cars. Wish a picture was provided of the whole dash. Many options were possible.
Otherwise it looks straight. Being a 2 door helps. Seller will take offers.

I noticed the same stuff going on, why I think $3,500 is a fair offer for that. I love the colors and that it's well optioned. I would certainly own that. Since I was a kid I have wanted a 1977 Lincoln Town Car coupe with all the goodies.1985 LTD Crown Victoria - SOLD
