UP FOR AUCTION IS MY 1964 FORD FALCON SPRINT WITH A 289 ENGINE AND A 4 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION. I BOUGHT THIS CAR IN 1995 IN MENLO PARK, CA. I NEED TO SELL BECAUSE I HAVE NO SPACE OR TIME FOR IT. THIS CAR SPENT MOST TIME IN THE GARAGE AND NEVER SAW RAIN WHILE I'VE OWNED IT. IN 17 YEARS I ONLY PUT APPROXIMATELY 10K MILES ON IT. THIS WOULD MAKE A GREAT PROJECT OR YOU CAN DRIVE IT AROUND AS IS. PEOPLE WILL STARE AT YOU EVERY TIME YOU PULL INTO A GAS STATION, AS THIS CAR IS QUITE THE CONVERSATION PIECE. IT LOOKS FAST JUST SITTING STILL.
