I seen a 4 door version of those down in Florence, South Carolina, sitting on top of a shipping container, in a scrap yard. It looks to be restorable.
My first car was a '78 Ford Fairmont 2 door coupe with a 2300 4 cylinder, and a 4 speed transmission.

@@mikeadams2677 your Ford Fairmont put the 4 speed to use in maximizing the power of the 4 cylinder.

[@mikeadams2677]

@@variousvisfineart lol. Yes that was the same 4 cylinder that Ford used in the Pinto. That engine needed all the help it could get to move that heavier Fairmont, for sure. 😆

@@variousvisfineart My dad told me his first car was a '59 Buick Invicta 4 door, and my mother's father told me his first car was a Model B Ford, and that he could get it in any color he wanted as long as it was black. 😆

That was a cool car..I never drove it. My 1st car was Ford Fairlane for $500 from Dads friend Lars.

Had a Fairlane for 1st car in 1980. Don't know year but it was old and I was young.
