Description of 1971 Ford Galaxie 2 dr

Up for sale is my galaxie 500. It is in good condition minus the usual small nicks & scratches.. ;For some reason I do not know, the driver side door developed about six surface rust spots about size of a quarter and a spot about same size over driver side rear trim wheel housing. U can see in pic. ;Other side has none. ;Some clear coat fade. All fenders and doors good. Interior in good shape except of course driver seat from getting in and out over years. Everything works except horn & radio.. Need new antenna. The hole is on right front fender for new one. There is unusal wear spot on passenger side carpet. It is not down to floor. wife passed a few years ago and I do not drive it much so I brought out of storage and fixed things up to be drive worthy. I put on new brakes early spring and also master cylinder. Had new exhaust pipes and mufflers installed. It has dual exhaust. Also, had trouble getting carb to work properly, so instead of rebuild, I bought 600 dual feed from Summit with electric choke.;It is working fine. It could stand a larger carb easily. ;Got the A/C compressor working again but just cool air come out. ;I am thinking it needs new receiver/drier, vacuum and recharge. It is still a R12 system but you can convert to 134a if you like. ;Car has power front disk brakes and power steering. ;Engine has around 65K on it. ;No knocks or smoke. It could stand new shocks, guess they went down from sitting to much. Still rides fair. Installed new tires all 4 corners last spring. The drive train is a 429--360HP with a C-6 tranny and 9in rear. Drive train works as it should. ;I think good wash, wax an detail would help car a lot or just get repainted. No rust on body other then described as I looked over the body. Undercarriage has surface rust. Nothing major I could see. Board cover, behind rear seat, under rear glass is showing signs of cracking from heat & sunlight. Sold as is. Low reserve, as it still needs some work as you drive it. Can not put any more money in it. Be glad to answer any reasonable question. $500 non-refundable by Paypal.in 24 hr. Balance due in 7 days. Bank wire or bank certified cashier check acceptable for balance due. Have clear title..Car is also for sale locally and can end whenever acceptable offer is made.......On Aug-02-16 at 17:39:06 PDT, seller added the following information: Also, put in new Pertrox distributor. I also checked my carb numbers with summit. It is a 750cfm even through I paid for a 600cfm. buyer responsible for shipping. Will work with driver to get date & time for pick up of car. I did drive car again a few miles on 8 Aug and it did fine. Overall have around 15 miles on it this year. Headliner is good. It is not hanger down on pass inside pic. That is the end of the blanket I use to cover front windshield from sun. I also have blanket over back window. ///////////// It is now 10 Aug today and I received a phone call why car was sold on the 7th and re-listed on the 9th. I will answer that if anybody else is concerned. First is the matter of deposit not received in 24 hours and secondly, most important of all, is that Ebay saw email of buyer before auction end wanting me to stop the listing and he would drive to my place and give cash. That would be a purchase outside ebay policy/guidelines. Ebay unfroze the listing so I could list car again. Hope that clears things up.
