Mate, I've looked at it too. For memory the bumper bolt holes had been ripped open. Wanting 6G for it. More like 1G total. I think he's trying to get rich quick

Another Landau on ebay.

I like the look of this one. Maybe it's the deep dish hotwires that does it.

Does "Excellent original condition" mean that it came from the factory with that big ding in the front guard?

It doesn't look like it is original, yes the decals are to high and the rear spoiler doesn't look right. Looks like top dollar for what it may or may not be. :

Judging by the fact the seller has a feedback rating of 2! I would say so. Something doesnt smell right about that one.

Mate is selling his 73 Fairmont XB Coupe. It has had a full resto completed almost 12 months ago from top to bottom, inside and out. Have a look in the link if anyone is interested. This car could be described as brand new and looks great!

I wonder if anyone asked him if it was cut from a genuine Cobra? Now that would be an awful thought!
