Bargain for the 5.0L but that all depends on what a "suss service history" is to you.
Does it have a log book? When was it last serviced? How bad is the paint for it to need that cut & polish? You say it's tidy... So, a tidy EL Ghia V8, LOW k's, 16"xr wheels.. If you don't buy it someone else will. Next to the GT's, these were probably the best buy from the E-series range. |

I think it is a reasonable price, the only real issuses are with the 6 cyl - heads & gaskets.

Sounds like a bargain! I paid 16K for the exact same type of vehicle this time last year. Although, mine had less K's and the interior/exterior is perfect (except for the yellow headlight thing)
