1970 Ford Falcon XW 3.6 petrol

Summary:

Big classic 70's beast

Faults:

Front doors sagging.

Speedo gauge ticks and bounces.

Broken steering column.

General Comments:

Car is a good 70's cruiser, and built like a tank.

Never had a problem mechanically, starts first time every time.

The car is original with whitewall tyres and gets heaps of looks.

There's a bit of rust starting to come through the bottom of the doors, boot and rear quarter panels. Would recommend for a cruise car or a great first car.
