"A well-kept car that runs well, but it needs a recond to be truly spectacular."

Description

Former owner Terry Tucker's parents bought the car in California in 1967. They drove it until 1971, when they retired it to a garage.

It remained there until 1995, when Terry had it repainted in its original color, with some rubber trims replaced and the interior upgraded. The Ford had barely covered roughly 50,000 km at the time. The car is never welded, with straight and good bodywork

The current owner purchased the car in 2003 and has only driven it during the summer since then. The electrical system was overhauled in 2004, and the car received a new radiator as well as a switchless ignition system.

Because there are other cars in the collection, the current owner believes he does not have the time or health to properly care for this gem, thus he wishes for another enthusiast to take over.

Auction information

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
Important to know before placing your bids!
  • Once you have called in an item and the reservation price is reached we want you to deposit the entire purchase amount into our client funds account before retrieval can take place.
  • When you need to retrieve a called in object we want you to examine it carefully. If you consider that the item does not match our description you do not need to complete the purchase. In this case the deposited purchase sum and the entry fee are refunded.
  • If you do not examine the item on the spot the call charge will be debited, but you do not have to complete the deal.
  • If you make the entire purchase exclusively at a distance you have 14 days to cancel, but must return the item at your own expense.
  • Your shipping costs and other costs are not reimbursed when the right of withdrawal is exercised. Swedish court applies.
  • For items that have not been collected within 14 days storage costs may be charged.
