and only 53,000Km. I'm getting put onto the bidder's list. See what happens. I am betting they will ask for bank account details or similar. Notice how these guys NEVER have ANY feedback.
Perhaps the real car belongs to a mamber here? Stranger things have happened. They could at least set a relaistic price if they want to con someone say $15,000 PLUS. Isn't that a NSW TRADE plate? funny as it says location is Perth. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/1974-Ford-Fal...ayphotohosting |

Seems like NSW dealer plates, you might try the RTA and they may be able to give you the information as to the dealership so that you can go and have a look.
Alternatively ask the seller if you can inspect the vehicle, might be worth trying this first though.

If it's only $6000 why have pre approved bidders only ?
If the car is in Perth , why does the dealer plate have NSW on it ? |

Looks like the photos are taken in inner Sydney around Surry Hills/ Central station somewhere. The jerk has even parked it in a "no stopping" zone, LOL.

My mate had a matching numbers xb sedan gt white, paid ten grand and sold for 65oo coz he was gonna lose his house. It was a little bit rough but hey it wasnt fake.Made it worse for him when i said i saw an awesome xb gt on the freeway, turns out it was his old gt all done up and it did a 14.7 after he sold it spewin.This happened about 4 or 5 years ago before the prices went through the roof so i find it hard to believe now a gt for six grand, the guy must be on drugs

Car is here for $59,500. Names don't match up with eBay account. Interesting, that's all I'll say.

Yep same thing here as well.
Hello, First of all I woud like to tell you that the car is in perfect condition, no mechanical or electryc problems, no signs of rust very well take care of !Also the car is NOT a replica IT"S ORIGINAL . The car is available for view/pick up/ before purchase in London,United Kingdom where I have moved with my job, this is the reason why I am selling the car as I have no use for it I want to leave it to another australian so it will be his pride.If you don't have the possibility to come to United Kingdom I will shipp the car in Australia for free as I am the one whofettered to sell to Australia so the price for this car will be 6,000 AUD with shipping and insurance included.For payment and shipping we will use GPS (Global Pack Shipp) who will act like a third party !To move on with this deal I need your full name and shipping address so I can make the shipping reservation for you and ask GPS to send you an payment invoice along with the tracking # for the car !As soon as you receive the invoice and check with GPS that the car is in their custody you will have to make half of the payment to receive the car (after you receive you have 5 days to test it and decide if you keep it or not ) if you decide to keep it you pay the remaining amount if not you just send the car back (no cost) and get a full refund in maximum 24 hours ).Please email me back !I am able to disscuss on the phone only with the real interested buyers I cannot call everyone ! |

I got it too. We should all get him to send out the invoices so that it costs him money. I asked him why the same car was on fordmusclecarssales.com.au for $59500 and I am awaiting his reply.
