      Yes, I like the factory brown. Black would look good too though.

              Storage: $400 for the whole winter at a private garage.
              Paint: same dark brown colour that it came with from the factory.

                parts up-date

                I replied to a Kijiji ad last month. Joe goes to South Carolina every winter for a month and vacations/finds auto parts for people. He found a '78 Town Car in a private junkyard. Joe got me these rear doors. Very solid!!

                  another trip to South Carolina

                  Joe is planning to head back to SC again and stay another couple of weeks. He's going to see if the '78 TC is still there. I've asked him to harvest the front doors for me. I'll post pics if/when I get the parts.

                      Well, the barge is still in storage. Might take it out in April, especially since the weather has been so good!!

                            The odometer reads over 52000 miles but I assume it's rolled over at least once.

                                A 9" rear with 2.47 gears (B-code axle)...The big 400 provides good torque
