The Granada is a little heavy (3260 plus driver) and the 302 horsepower was adjusted up in August of this year when the Maverick was hit. I'm not sure why they lumped the Maverick and Granada together. Even at 163 hp it could run under the index, in my opinion.
If its a V-8 car that would be a plus so you don't have to chase down heads and an intake. Pre 1980 Granadas have leaf spring rear ends, and either an 8 inch, 9 inch, 7.5 or a wierdo 8.7 according to some folks. Front suspension is the older Ford stuff, common.
If the interior is rough that could be a challenge finding the correct panels etc. I went through that with my Fairmont.
It would be a unique addition to U/SA.
Not likley a dime rocket BTW.
Good luck.
