1960 Ford Falcon. This car is my father's and was last running in 1991 and has been garaged and covered since than. This car does not currently run. It has 69K + original miles. The original color was a pale powder blue. It was repainted a darker blue color as shown in the photos. The paint job is average. The body condition is average and has some scratches. It is not perfect. The chassis is solid. The rear trunk is solid inside. It has no rot or rusted frames or floor pans. I consider this a solid car. It is super simple. In my opinion, to get it running the gas tank will need to be flushed of gas still remaining in the tank (or replace the tank). The gas has that varnish smell. It will need to have the heater hoses replaced, as they have dried out. The tires hold air, but they would need to be replaced as they show signs of dry rot and cracks from sitting so long. I am not a mechanic by any means, so this is only my opinion. The car ran perfect before stored and is a very simple basic car mechanically. It is my belief it simplicity will make it easy to become road worthy again. The interior seating fabric was redone professionally on both the front and rear seats shortly before it was garaged. There is a small hole in the front driver side by the front left leg area (can be seen in photos). The headliner was also replaced at the same time. Overall, an average car that is solid and simple. It has pleasant lines to the eye, especially from the rear.
