    Wow I did not know someone made a visor. Does it fit correctly, like it was made for it?

    Love to find one.....

    I'd say 70 to 80% of all the 60 to 66 early Falcons sold in Australia had a sunvisor fitted from the dealer before delivery ( genuine Ford part )

    How many would you like ???
     
  6. Man, that is really done right, sweet & simple. What ever came of it? Any more pics or details?

    She sold it last summer:( We got it dialed in and she decided she liked being my co-pilot more than driving by herself to shows. Stock drivetrain, gloss black with silver flaked roof by crash haley, pinstriping on trunk and hood by Cisneros, cut coils up front and 3" blocks out back. I miss that little beast!

    Here is my version, it's an aussie 64 with a later falcon inline 250ci 6 with rare factory 2v high performance head. I did all the work myself
    and it's my daily driver.:cool:

    How much would it cost assuming they have one for a 64?

    Here's my Ranchero. Pretty much bought it this way, but I'm switching to 5-lug pretty soon and putting it on air. Just bought a Toyota rear end -- two inches narrower than stock so I should be able to fit a decent wheel under there. I know, bad photo, and I'm a photographer so it doubly sucks.

    Haahaa... this thread keeps going, and going, and going.
    Nice Falcons kids, keep up the good work. I started this thread last year when I bought mine, now another HAMBer has it, thrashing on it some more... how funny.

    Sweet, I like the way they look on the car. Those look larger than 13inches, are they 14's?

    Yes, they are 14s. The rims behind them are chrome with holes, nasty if you ask me, and the front tires rub on corners. I'm gonna try a set of stock early Mustang rims til I get the 5 lug conversion, but that'll be awhile.


    Heres a pic when i got her...

    Don't know if everyone will agree this is done right, but here's mine so far. Grandma's 64 with 170 in it. Lowered 3 inches and added Comet brakes up front. Maybe next winter it will get a v-8. The other pic is a photoshop of what I'd like it to look like when it's done.
