    Proportions are spot on in my opinion. Hideaway headlights are a styling homerun. The door panels are a bit loud though.

    Wonder where the got their production numbers. Would like to add them to my list if they can be verified.

      One of the rarest maybe if you want to delve into designer series trim packages, but not model specific rarity. In searching for my car saw a whole lot more Mark VI coupes listed than I have the Town Coupés

      I wish I liked the styling of them more since I would have had much more to pick from. Maybe 15 years of owning my '84 has me a bit biased I just don't like the oval window, trunk, or round headlights on a boxy car. IMO, those styling cues should have stayed with the -79 barge models.

        Link didn't work, but fished the item number out of the URL and it works this way: http://www.ebay.com/itm/262807194007

        Personally, I find the designer editions silly all-around. Sell the car on its own merits, not by creating some weird exclusive edition that doesn't actually represent anything.

          The Town Coupe production numbers were considerably lower than Mark VI coupe production so it must be a trim-specific thing. Still, thats a sexy car.

            Yes trim specific. I know I've never seen one in the wild.

              the body work needed on that right side blinker would turn it into a $1000 car for me, tops.

                Most of that looks like a corner extension housing. Easy enough to swap if you can locate one.

                  big fender dent/scrape and the top is nuked so budget 1500$+ for a vinyl top replacement if you can find anyone to do it, then you're stuck with the 302's lowest horsepower numbers ever 132 (factory fresh), the interior is nice, nicer than mine and the dash isn't cracked, but look closer at the steering wheel, the bakelite is all cracked on the spokes just like mine is.
