Are there any 1968 Ford Custom 2-Door Sedan survivors?
I believe that 1969 was the last year for the full size 2-Door Sedans?

Think they are far and few between in my area (Iowa). Have only saw 1 66 and 1 67 in my lifetime and that was at a salvage yard. There maybe more in larger metropolis's. Heavy road salting in the snow belt eliminated most winter driven vehicles after 10 years old. They are cool models though.

The frames rusted out easily on the 65/72. Most any resto you read about usually starts with a frame search.
