For sale: 1973 Landau Ford

Another nice Landau - this original example asking $118,000 in August 2024.. A high price, but just 59,000 km on the clock.. An amazing time machine that's the last of its kind.. The seller noted the following comments when the car was advertised:

"Ford records confirm the Landau is Walnut Glow in colour, saddle interior, brown vinyl roof, radio stereo/tape player and the retail dealer code is; Ford Special Vehicles (3999). • From available information, it is believed to be the 5th Landau built, in April 1973. • The Landau was first registered in Victoria on 8 June 1973 by Ford Australia – LMP 622. • No further information is known about this Landau until September 1973. • On the 14 September 1973, the Wheels Magazine used the Landau as the ‘road test’ vehicle for the January 1974 edition of the Wheels Magazine. Note: The Landau was sold new prior to the magazine release. • It is not known when or where the sunroof and interior were fitted to the Landau, however it was after the Wheels Road Test and prior to the new owners purchasing the vehicle. • The Landau was delivered to an unknown NSW Sydney Ford dealer. A husband and wife purchased the Landau in November 1973. Discussions with the wife confirmed the Landau was purchased as a new vehicle with the electric sunroof, houndstooth interior and standard wheels with turbine hubcaps. • They traded the Landau on a smaller car in early 1974. • Newspaper advertisements from March - May 1974, show that the Landau was for sale at Geoghegans Recreational Vehicles, Haberfield, NSW. The advertisements clearly indicate the electric sunroof, houndstooth interior and alloy spoked wheels (ROH Pro Sprints), which appear to have been dealer fitted. • A NSW family purchased the Landau in 1974 and it remained in the family to 2014, when I purchased it."
