If you are convinced you want a six-banger, then this is the model (280, that is). The engine is a DOHC design, more free-revving and a work of art to look at as well.

The car is locateds in Hacienda Hts. White with black interior. Hard top, no soft top. 150K as I recalled, has ground effect with 16" wheels, looks good for that year. I think the owner is asking 5,000, can't remember. Let me know if you are interested, I will drive by to get his number for you.
