My collection is primarily 1960's/70's European sports cars but I couldn't resist recently taking this fun Ford Falcon beach wagon/movie car in trade from another collector. This car doesn't really fit with my collection so I'm offering it up for sale now. Wow, does this Falcon get attention just driving around town.
This 1964 Ford Falcon 4-door station wagon lived it's entire life in Texas and Florida before being sold to the previous owner in Virginia a year ago. It is clean and rust free except for a very small (size of a nickel) surface spot on the lower end of the rear tailgate. I believe the car was originally all white but the lower part was painted gray. While the photos look great, this is not a show car- it looks lived in with a nice patina that I would keep if I was the next owner. In person the gray is a bit darker than shown in the photos- which were taken this week in bright sunlight. It is, in my mind, a very cool, very rare, surf wagon that will hold it's own next to all the VW Busses on your next cruise to the shore. I'd call it a 20 footer with the usual small dings and marks of a car that has been driven...that said, it would certainly not look out of place at any car show or cruise-in. Chrome is nice all around including the optional Falcon roof rack...The glass is very good all around. The interior, I am assuming, was redone at some point, but looks very original and is very clean. Carpet is dark gray and in very good shape. There are lap belts front and back. All gauges work except for the left turn signal. This wagon has an electric rear window which goes up and down as it should, but sometimes sticks for a second or two. All windows crank as they should, and all doors close tight. Tires are good wide whites with maybe 50% tread left mounted on standard 13 inch rims. The car runs great. It's not fast... but who is in a hurry? ...you're getting the very durable 200 CID 6 cylinder engine mated to the Ford Falcon 2 speed automatic transmission. The odometer and title have about 131,000 miles and I believe it to be accurate. All motor fluids were serviced last fall and less than 500 miles ago. Some nice extra's are included for the new owner: Original 1964 owners manual, 1964 Ford shop manual, the original cylinder head (red), Ford rear mats and a spare original Ford AM radio. The car currently has a neat repro (modern made to look old) am/fm radio with dash top speaker. If all that isn't enough, this Falcon Wagon has the added cache of having had a minor role in a famous movie- "The Rookie", starring Dennis Quaid in 2002. It's the true story of a Texas HS baseball coach who gets a second chance at the major leagues (Google it). In fact, one of the reasons the previous two owners resisted doing any additional cosmetic work on the car is that it still looks exactly as it did in the movie and why mess with a good thing. During a shot from the movie you can see the Falcon towing a small u-haul trailer. I was told the Disney company beefed up the rear end a bit as a result. Otherwise, the car was sold by Disney after use in the movie to an earlier owner in Florida, before it came to Virginia. There's a custom front license plate that you can see in the photo's identifying the car as the same one that was in the movie. Oh... the surf board doesn't go with the car but if you want it- let me know and we can work something out. Also listed for sale locally so the listing may be ended at any time. |

2016 Ford Focus RS to start at $35,730? [UPDATE]
Wed, Jul 29 2015UPDATE: Unsurprisingly, Ford declined to comment on the pricing shown on the consumer page, with spokesman Aaron Miller telling Autoblog that the Blue Oval does "not comment on pricing speculation." The webpage showing the $35,730 figure has since been pulled down. We love it when automakers make little, tiny mistakes. You know, not the big stuff that leads to recalls, but the small things, like accidentally releasing pricing of a hotly anticipated model via its US consumer website. Such a thing has apparently happened to Ford, as Jalopnik's Car Buying sub-blog has uncovered a page on the site listing the starting price of the 2016 Focus RS. The cost of entry for the 345-horsepower, all-wheel-drive, torque-vectoring hot hatchback is $35,730, according to the website. That's $1,035 more than the base Subaru WRX STI, although it's $865 less than the Volkswagen Golf R. Considering the RS outguns both models by a very significant margin – 40 horsepower over the STI and 47 over the Golf R – that price seems very agreeable. If it's correct, that is. Aside from showing the RS' starting price, the page also gives us a glimpse into the options sheet. There's an RS2 equipment level that adds $2,795 to the base price along with navigation and leather Recaro seats, an $895 sunroof, and a 19-inch wheel and Michelin Pilot Sport Cup tire package for $1,990 (or just $1,395 for the 19s alone). Some fiddling with the quite incomplete configurator – there are no images and the overall design is rather glitchy – revealed a max price of $42,275. We've reached out to Ford for confirmation of the pricing information displayed. Head into Comments and let us know what you think of the pricing. Has Ford hit it out of the park by slotting in a more powerful competitor between the Subaru and Volkswagen? Were you expecting a higher price (like your author), or is this still too much money for a jumped-up Focus? Related Video:
