Well been on my want list for a while either the Matador or the Polara and guess whats turned up locally ........

Good $$$ wanted but road legal here and ready to go, should I buy is the asking fair ..... ?

It has the Super Red Ram 295 hp 361 cubic inch V8, coupled to a push button Power Flite automatic transmission, power steering and power brakes

Havent been watching these for a while so unsure of value etc your comments welcome its 55,000 NZD = 40,434 USD

Cheers bigears

This car used to belong to a Forward Look member in Arizona. The steering wheel has been re-cast since he owned it though. Here's his video of the car from 2013 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fGdtoJI2sMg
The asking price is steep - it wouldn't command near that much over here for a sedan.

The price is steep but I don't know what the cost is to import one and make it street legal in Australia. I am not an expert but I think 25k-30k for it, in USD, would be fair, it's worth a premium considering it's there and it's ready to go. And you don't hardly ever see them, anywhere.

Sold just last year for around $ 10,000 US in Arizona, before that it spent decades in Spokane, Washington.

Nice Matador that has had a lot of work done to it over the years. Pretty color.
