Up for auction is a 1960 Ford Falcon two door coupe. It has the 144 cubic inch inline 6 cylinder motor with the manual 3 speed shift on the column. There is no rust on the body. The driver's side floor pan is rusted through in an area about 1"x4" at its lowest point. The previous owner patched it with so it does not leak. Other than surface rust on the bottom of the car, the only other area of rust is at the rear of the right rear wheelwell. Both of these areas can be seen on the photos below. There is no rust in the trunk or engine bay areas.
When I got the car both bumpers were painted dark green to match the wheels and interior trim. They were in good shape with no dents so I had them, as well as the grill, chromed within the past 45 days. All of the stainless trim around the windows and doors is in very good condition. All of the glass has the original "Ford" logos. The windshield does not have any cracks but is pitted from age. The rest of the glass is in very good condition. The pivot pins on both vent windows are broken but the windows will shut tightly. The door glass rattles in the frame as the window tracks are worn. The paint is good but not a high end paint job. The tires are brand new and have less than 100 miles on them. There is a spare wheel that does not have a tire mounted on it. There is no jack or lug wrench. The engine starts easily even on cold days. It has a manual choke and soon settles into an even idle. There are no hesitations or flat spots on acceleration. There are small oil drops and a small coolant drop under the car after it sits for awhile. The clutch works well with no grinding on upshifts or downshifts. First gear is not synchronized. The brakes have been recently bled and the pedal is hard when pumped. However, the first time you hit the brakes, there is some distance before the breaks work. Once it reaches that point, the car stops well and straight. The interior is in excellent shape with newly recovered seats, new door panels, new carpet and a new headliner. The gas gauge reads nearly 1/2 full all of the time and the temperature gauge did not move, although it was very cold the day I drove the car. The car has one set of keys, an ignition key and a key for the trunk. The trunk has a carpet liner. The entire car is very clean including the trunk and engine bay. Here's the story on why I am selling the car. Last year I restored a 1964 Corvette coupe. I took a 1957 Chevrolet 150 on trade plus cash. I put the '57 Chevy on eBay but it did not meet my reserve. The high bidder called me after the auction was over and wanted to trade cars. I did not really want a 1960 Falcon but we eventually agreed on a difference figure that worked for both of us. Now I want to sell the Falcon to cash out of my Corvette. I have not driven the car very much but it appears to be a reliable car. As I said earlier, it always starts on the first turn. It drives well down the road and does not pull to either side. The guy that traded it to me drove it often and said it never let him down. I have a clear North Carolina title for the car in my name. I have taken a bunch of photos of the entire car including the bottom and the can be seen at: http://s188.photobucket.com/user/jerhofer/library/1960%20Ford%20Falcon?sort=3&page=1 The car is sold as is with no warranty. If you have questions, please give me a call at 704-657-8320. On Feb-04-14 at 19:28:28 PST, seller added the following information: Be sure to scroll down for the photos.

Car-crazy 5-year-old boy writes automakers for treasures, gets big response
Fri, Jan 25 2019Part of the beauty of children is that they can find worth in something adults might deem unworthy or overlook entirely. Five-year-old Patch Hurty didn't see garbage or a broken piece of a car when he spotted a Ford badge lying on the side of a road. He saw an artifact, a souvenir, a start to a collection he could only dream of. Ezra Dyer of Popular Mechanics tells the story of Patch and his quest to turn that one lost badge into a museum of manufacturer logos. According to the article, Hurty is a car fanatic through and through, even using car names as a way of learning to read. After finding the Ford badge near his Connecticut home, he and his mom put together a plan to reach out to dozens of automakers, confessing his love of things on four wheels. In each letter, Patch assembled a picture of himself standing next to one of the cars, and a penny to pay for whatever he hoped was sent his way. The response was unexpectedly and overwhelmingly positive. Of the more than 50 letters he sent out, including to obscure or defunct companies such as Bugatti, Suzuki, and Saturn, a majority responded with warm notes and some type of souvenir. Two of the coolest responses came from Lincoln and Bentley. Lincoln sent a sketch of a Continental (all car lovers enjoy drawing cars, right?), and Bentley sent a wheel center cap. How awesome is that? The story reminds us of something that can easily be lost in all of the negativity involved with the auto industry: Everybody is in this because of a common infatuation with automobiles. For more details on the souvenirs Patch received and accompanying photos, read the rest of the story. Related Video: News Source: Popular Mechanics Read This Bentley Bugatti Ford Lincoln Saturn Suzuki
