It is at $6900 atm. I used to have one of those (I bought it new). It was fun but unfortunately one of the most efficient systems for turning petrol into smog ever made.
Chicks loved it though.......ahhhhh the 70s |

mine is the most efficient for not even burning petrol (pu your hands behind the exhaust and they become moist with un burnt fuel)
i think mine is running a little rich lol.

If I am not wrong, all the Sundowners came out with a stripe package. The Falcons also came with different wheels (the steel wheels I think). I am not sure if blue was offered. I thought they only came in orange / yellow / green sort of colours. Ford made Sundowners in the Escort, Falcon and Transit range. I believe they are all rare, especially the Transit. I would be checking that car carefully as you may end up paying Sundowner prices for a tarted up panel van.
