JBA Sales 
Many people are buying used Falcons these days. Two prospective buyers emailed me recently. Ron Williams from Somerset saw a Falcon Sports at the Stafford show and ended up buying it. 

Ron Williams His JBA Falcon Sports was built in 1998. It is Cortina based and is fitted with a 2 litre Pinto engine coupled to a 4 speed gearbox. The car is painted Volkswagen Mars Red.

Ron bought it from a JBA Owners Club member in Staffordshire. Ron has now joined the club. What does Ron think about his sports. "Its a real pleasure to own it and to drive. Every time I open my garage and see it, it makes me smile. Is this normal and will the symptoms disappear after a while ?"  I don't think so Ron, ask any other JBA owner.

Raymond Ashworth Raymond from Edinburgh was looking for a Falcon Tourer. He used the facilities of this site and The JBA Owners Club to find one.

His car was bought from a member in Halifax. He has now fitted MG Midget seats (found on Les Fragle's JBA Cars Forsale Page) and doing up the interior to match. Another item replaced is Mountney steering wheel for a 15" Motolita wheel, but still retaining the Mountney boss.
