It has a 250CID (around 255CID after rebuilt) inline
six engine with C4 transmission. The odometer reads 92,600 miles and has
500 miles on rebuilt engine. The transmission was rebuilt at around 83,000
miles and it works perfectly. This is my first American Ford (and not my
last). It has my favorite exterior and interior colors - dark red. I'm the
4th owner of this car. My Granada has the Ghia package, but doesn't have
power brakes, windows or seat. It had factory towing package with HD
springs, but I took the tow out. The first owner bought it used in the
United States and shipped it to Poland from New York on the Polish ocean
liner called "Stefan Batory" in 1977. There are only three or four other
Granadas like mine in Poland right now. My Granada is almost a 100%
original car, except for the Lincoln Versailles exterior mirrors, dual
exhaust, and third stop light that I call my own additional "Cartier"
package :))
I had to make new
carpets when I bought the car. I replaced the 70's stereo aftermarket
radio with a '77 Ford Quadrasonic AM/FM/8-track radio from a Lincoln
Versailles. I installed new door speakers and factory grilles. While
replacing the radio I noticed some surface cracks in the vinyl dash pad so
I had it leather wrapped. I also replaced stock digital clock with a
"Cartier" version from a Lincoln Versailles I bought NOS on eBay
Please contact me if you are
an American Granada owner. |
