This Sunday, 6 Dec. Four Falcon utes, some Falcon sales brochures, Falcon parts, Leyland Mini parts. The utes are pretty amazing. I'd like to bid on/buy one of them but it's probably not a good idea. There are 12 pages of stuff and the utes are on page 12. |

tbh i've been looking at 1 of these for myself.. the xg with the canopy, but i've since discovered its been re sprayed from it's original silver to the current baby blue,
Ive gone and seen it in person, it was a full respray so will need a motor out , fully stripped to be put back to silver the xf is immaculate... i believe deceased estate of a batchelor

There are some rear bumperetes in the auction. I guess they would be from two of the utes. I looked thru all the pages yesterday. However, I didn't note what page they were on.

Blown away by this. Who the hell kept all of this sort of ****, from so many years ago???? Looks like original sales paperwork and everything. I get it that people over the last 10 or so years have maybe kept paperwork for their pride and joy more upmarket gt's xr8's etc. But from 1967, 1995....for "common-issh" everday standard type falcons??????

Bless this gentleman. That's how you treat cars. If a deceased estate, heaven is going to have to do a spring clean to be ready for him.

Yep. And the outback for 20 grand was the 1 i was looking at for myself tbh..i went to see all 4 last week prior to auction. The outback was supposed to be silver yet it was stripped and copped a full respray in that blue which threw me off tbh.. i wonder in the buyer realises its gonna need a full respray?

Great results, financially. I hope the past owner also enjoyed having them as he obviously preferred.

Prices on everything is so crazy inflated. $310 for 3x XF ute taillights that are stuffed with cracks and holes sitting next to ford boxes. They are probably the old taillights that were removed from one utes and replaced with NOS ones. What kind of drugs do you need to take to make a purchase like that.

On another note though, the old chap was obviously very fustidious. One of the lots is an Electrolux vacuum cleaner identical to one my mum had in the mid 60's. The one in the auction pic still had the cardboard box it came in. That thing is 60 years old! Just amazing how well he looked after his gear. May he rest in peace. |

I watched this auction, I was floored with the prices that the items were selling for. The haters will hate but our Falc's are sky-rocketing in value!
