Hello to all-XL question

Hello to all, I'm new to your forum and may as well start by asking a question.  I'm looking at a 1970 convertible to possibly buy and am a little confused about the Galaxie vs XL.  Am I right that there were actually no Galaxie 500 convertibles in 1970, only the XL's?  What should this be worth in fairly good shape?
Thanks in advance.

Re: Hello to all-XL question

I should give you a little more info-it has the 351, interior if fairly good, the top has a few patches and it doesn't have the top lift pump or rams.

Re: Hello to all-XL question

No idea about value, but according to this brochure, you're correct that the only convertible in this platform was the XL:

also page 8 of that set

FWIW, this site will give you a WIDE range of prices once you give them a zip code:
