*NO RESERVE AUCTION!*





 1965 falcon convertible. pretty rare car. Most falcons out there for sale are 64's.hard to find very solid old ford. It is currently a running, driving, registered car. It has just had a valve job, electronic ignition conversion, new fuel pump, new carburator, and battery. Just had a brand new set of whitewall tires put on it.   We also just replaced the rear leaf springs and hangers with new bushings.  Drives and runs pretty well but I would assume the rest of the suspension may very well be original. I wouldn't see a problem driving it home however it is still an old car so anything can happen.  Has a power top that works very well. all lights, turn signals, etc work. The original radio even works still!!        the worst parts of the car are the chrome is flaking off the rear bumper and the trunk lock is missing in action..lol   The top works great and is all there but likely the original or a replacement a long time ago. it works but is in need of replacement if car was to be restored.      From what I have found the pictures below show the only rust which is on the bottom of the inner rocker. probably a 2x6 inch area or so on both sides where it is thin.  the trunk, floors, quarters and everything else look to be solid.  Body is absolutely solid, doors do not sag when they are opened like most convertibles out there for sale.  The car was originally the dark IVY green.  Looks like it was repainted red a LONG time ago.  it does have a cool patina to it and gets alot of attention when we cruise it around.   All of the glass and top window is there and in place. The windshield has a rock chip in it but other than that the glass is in nice condition.


I have represented the car to the best of my knowledge and will meet any bidder for a preview no problem.   On cars this old a lot of condition items are subject to each persons opinion. What I may think is horrible you may not.  I try to make sure the car is well represented so the buyer will be pleasantly surprised when it arrives.  The car is for sale locally and is subject to sale prior to end of auction. We offer transportation assistance for overseas buyers. Flat rate of $200.00 in addition to close price, to transport it the port of oakland ca. We also work directly with a excellent transport company(no brokers) for delivery in the states.

 A deposit of 500.00 is due immediatly at end of auction for winning bidder!  If you do not agree to this do not bid please. Please do not hesitate to call or message me with any questions. 916-740-9438

Thanks, and HAPPY BIDDING!!!

Justin Bell makes a horrible policeman

Mon, 11 Nov 2013

If you're wondering what type of person makes a good police officer, it seems a racecar driver doesn't. Let us rephrase that: Justin Bell, a racecar driver and the host of Motor Trend's World's Fastest Car Show, recently got behind the wheel of a 5.0-liter Ford Mustang police car with Sergeant Daniel Shrubb, co-founder of DRAGG (Drag Racing Against Gangs and Graffiti), and proved that his high-performance-driving skillset is a bit too aggressive for police duty.
While it's easy to get carried away in a Mustang GT, a patrol car driver must maintain some sort of restraint while pursuing a criminal, so as not to come off as a reckless driver to the public. We'll admit, some pursuit techniques are counter-intuitive to performance driving (stay off the gas in a lane-change exercise?), but Bell's judicious use of the handbrake can't be normal procedure.

Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues

Wed, 28 Dec 2011

'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.
