Bought it from the Lincoln dealership because they got three of them and sold them in one day, ordered three more and sold two over the next year.  He kept one because the new 427 was coming and that beastie was even more than he wanted.  The guy who owned the dealership drove this one for about a year and a half, got umpteen tickets, and decided to sell it to me as a "demo" for fifty eight hundred, a good notch down from the sixty four hundred on the original, and in 67 the garbage truck got it and two other cars when it's brakes went out and the driver decided sideswiping a group of parked cars and stopping that way was better than driving through downtown without brakes.
