After market parts fitted to engine are extractors, Alloy Edelbrock intake manifold and Re-built Holley 600 Vac. The engine has No coolant leaks and does Not overheat. Items that will come with the car are 2 decent condition front seats ( original seats are yuk ) New front seat belts New carpet underlay New carpet Auto trans rachet shifter If I sold at asking price 2 Genuine Centreline Convo Pro wheels fwith new retaining nuts and average tyres. The NOT so good this car like all Falcons has rust. Floors front and rear are good. Rust in lower Front Gaurds, lower Doors, Roof Gutters, Tail Gate, lower rear quter panels, nose of Bonnet. Vehicle was last registered in Victoria. I have tried to explain my Falcon as Honestly as I can. Yes It is driveable as is with permit. Yes it needs Body work. Yes I have done my homework and at my asking price for a driving car with all lights, wipers, horn etc all working This is the cheapest XC V8 in Australia. Please read the Ad again, also check out the images. Im over Time wasters or dreamers. I spent lots of $'s to get this car into a driveable condition to travel 1000Km only to be screwed over buy potentional Buyer/Loser that had no money at all to buy. Yes I am a motivated seller But Please do not insult me with ridiculously low offers. The car can be viewed in Torrensville. I also can organise small test drive for any potential buyers on Trade Plate. Again to anyone interested The car will require body/panel work.
