Description:
Here is your chance to own a rare California surf wagon that turns heads everywhere it goes!! This car is super clean . The original 390 V8 starts instantly, runs great, and has ample power rebuilt approximately 5K miles ago. At the same time, I had the original Cruise-O-Matic transmission rebuilt.The car is equipped with aftermarket (under dash) gauges (oil pressure, voltage water temp.) - I always like to have these for peace of mind.There is also a rare factory under dash air conditioning unit (rebuilt), connected to a new Vintage Air system under the hood.The suspension was lowered about 2" by previous owner by shorter coils in front and de-arching the rear leaves, giving it a really sweet low stance.Cosmetically, as far as I can tell, the car was repainted once in the original white. The paint is in great condition but we did repaint the door jambs (see photos) as they were a bit scruffy. They are now super clean, and what a difference when you open the door and see that!-removed the old (faded peeling) woodgrain vinyl and replaced it with new, using 3M's Di-Noc vinyl. Before installing these and the new carpet, we applied Dynamat to the doors and floorboards of the car for sound heat insulation.-removed and reassembled the window mechanisms, replacing the channels and fuzzy strips, and also installed new rubber door seals.-all the interior garnish mouldings repainted before being reinstalled with new chrome screws. -The new carpet is from ACC carpets, in Ivy Gold and has matching floor mats with the stitched-in Ford crest logo.It is turn-key and ready to go.Original 390 engine rebuilt, blueprinted balanced. New Edelbrock Performer Aluminum heads. New Holley Street Avenger 4bbl Carb. (Original carb included with vehicle). Distributor rebuilt, points ignition replaced with new Pertronics Ignitor inside distributor (reliability upgrade). New motor mounts installed.Original transmission completely rebuilt. New transmission mounts installed.New Classic Auto Air conditioning system installed, using original under dash unit (also rebuilt).New Spal electric fan installed.Replaced original generator with new alternator (reliability upgrade better output)New Optima Red Top battery.New mufflers.Power steering pump rebuilt.Power steering control valve rebuilt.New power steering cylinder installed.Vacuum brake booster rebuilt.New brake master cylinder.New front brake drums shoes.New dual master cylinder installed.Front suspension completely rebuilt.Front end alignment performed February 2014.17" Vintage Wheelworks aluminum wheelsNew BF Goodrich G-Force Sport Comp 2 Radial Tires.New custom teak interior door panels. Interior garnish mouldings repainted.New carpet.New woodgrain vinyl (3M Di-Noc)All window mechanisms (except tailgate) have been disassembled rebuilt with new channels.All door deals replaced (except tailgate).Dynamat insulation installed under carpet and behind door panels.Electric rear window operates (dash switch and exterior key both work).Original Vacuum wipers marginal. Unit can be rebuilt or replaced with electric wipers.Original AM radio works - but is not connected to antenna.All Heating A/C functions operate well.Turn signals operate well, and cancel correctly.Horn operates well.Here are things we did not do, which you may or may not want to: - Windshield is the original one with the cool FoMoCo logo - it has pitting from age and could stand to be replaced. - Vacuum wipers are slow - you could replace with an electric wiper motor if you plan to drive in the rain. - Vinyl dash pad has cracked around the speaker grill - Clock does not work
