    Cool, but you had me faked out. Thought it would be a Mercury.

    I can believe that the Ford may be a one of a kind.

    Way back in the 1980s I heard a rumor about a 1965 Park Lane 4-door with a 427 Super Marauder in northern IL. Never did find the car, but with only 7 full size Mercs built in 1965 with the 427 it would be a one of a kind also.
    1963 Marauder S-55, Super Marauder 406
    Only factory 406 powered Marauder, and earliest built Marauder documented to still exist.

    Pawel Zal doesn't tell us how many were actually built.

    The following is captioned as a '427 car' (W code?)

    Never can tell with a 1965 Merc without popping the hood or looking at the VIN, but if it was a 427 car it would be an R code only
