CR, I know I shared a lot about my first lowrider:

Long story short, my parents bought the car from me in the spring of 2018, and kept it in a westside garage in Cleveland where they took it on cruises. As soon as I sold it to them, I regretted not having a land yacht...ended up buying my current 1979 Mark V last January.

 

Just spoke to my dad and they need to move it out of the garage as the place is getting repainted...and he's over the experience. Just one less thing he wants to deal with. I joked that, at 75 years old, he's sounding like a grumpy old man. I'm getting it back from him this weekend.

I'm going to take the air-ride suspension out of it (will have coil springs reinstalled, I'm going to use the airbag setup on my '79). Will look like the pic above and will be sold with my gold-accent Lincoln Turbine aluminum wheels as well. ~112k miles. Some body rust but nothing all the way through. Carb rebuilt last year and many newer parts. If I haven't taken this down, it will mean it made the trip from CLE to C-Bus flawlessly and will be ready for sale. ;)

 

$2500 CR price with 2 sets of wheels. Will be available as quickly as I can get the coil springs reinstalled; just gauging interest for now.

rather than sell this one, why not keep this one and sell the white/green one? this one is sooooo much better looking.

 

My '79 has half the mileage (52k miles) and I've done a few more things to it over the '78 that makes it more desirable for me to keep.
