any falcon owners here? lets see some pics!!

I have a '62 Futura, a '62 Ranchero, and the girlfriends '62 wagon... The wagon is closest to on the road right now. 200 C/4 combo.

 

What kind of times is buddy with the blue more door getting that your chasin

 

I think he was running the 1/4 in 10.60 sec. That image is actually a "photoshop" job that I made up.....that car is really a 2-door sedan

I will have to look at the original photo, he had the time written on the window...but it got trimmed off in "photoshop"

 

wow nice job on the photo shoot have to learn how to do that

 

cool cars.This is the wifes

 

Traded an "X-Man #1 comic book for it, and $200.oo



I'll have to do a tech thread on how I adapted the original horn button to the aftermarket one. It's got '65 T-Bird buckets up front, and a '58 T-Bird back seat. Going with white and green metal flake naugahide tuck and roll.

 

It's nothing special man but it's mine Here is the link if you ever want to check it out...http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=240864

 

Here's my 62' Futura, also posted in the Falcons done right thread. It is pretty much stock, upgraded engine to 200 cid, waiting to find a C4 and a triple carb setup.

 

twistedtrbl, that is a nice futura!

 

here's mine. . .bought it from a dude in bakersfield last fall, been raced there since 1965 a/gs, and then bracket raced until 2003. It is tore apart now and in the process of getting a straight axle, i wasnt going to do it but while replacing header gaskets on the cleveland crammed in between the shock towers, i found some serious deficiencies in the front sub frame from 45 years of racing. it now has reverse chrome's on the back and torque thrusts on the front and i'm going to do a detailed how-to on the straight axle install (took alot of pics). . . .btw, your falcon is bitchin and my moneys on your's (against chuckles). . .no way that strangebird 60 foot's below 2 seconds, or can be mashed on the big end, and yours outta be in the 1.4's with caltracs, mine is. . horsepower's uselesss if it can't be planted, no offense to strangebird, it's a work of art!

 

I'm getting around to this one thanks to a neighbor who wanted to buy it. He bugged me to sell it so I told him its a great daily driver with new brakes, clutch, headliner ect. Being scrap is high (tho I wouldn't scrap it) I told him $600 and drive it home. I must be out of touch with prices cause he ran off like he was on fire. Can't give a guy a deal these days. Now thanks to him its not for sale. I already have the cab stripped & body work done and have the patch panels to repair the rear rust next. I'm leaving the quiet running 6 in it for now and going to do a metalflake & scalloped paint job 60's style with some lace panels. I love when idiots don't buy my stuff and inspire me to finish them.

 

Here's my '65...just finished my build. I started with a straight six Futura and built a Sprint clone.

 

Nice job GOTGOAT!!

 

Here are some of my current and past cars......

 

Here is our 1964 Falcon Futura convertible.

 

I have a '64 Sprint.

 

nice futura.
it looks better with cragars
1989 called and they want their wheels back.
sorry
those just arent hamb friendly.
period.

 

My little sister has a Falcon, she is well and truly on her way to being a real HotRodder!!



Doc.

 

Here you go this is one i found for sale on the gumtree site here in Australia the ad discribes it as customised to look like a mustang.Why would anyone do this.

 

Why??!! UGH!! I guess it may be a decent parts car?

Doc.

 

wow i checked that car out in person probably 15 years ago an old guy in southport had it in his garage.my buddy and I were freaked out by its sheer ugliness back then.didn't buy it then and had never seen it again until today

 

Behold... The wagon as a driver! Haven't been able to wipe the silly grin off my face all week. Yup, I'm a simpleton!

 

That was done when the average bloke in Oz couldn't buy a Mustang. That's why.

 

This was mine back in the 90's.. 6cyl with factory 4 spd... put lots of miles on it..

 

My first car in 1969...wish I still had it

 

heres mine . owned it for years , had the same wheels as yours for quite some time and decided after the hood to go for a more period look !

 

That car looks bitchin', Chip. Probably a blast to drive, too. Who would ever thought that wire wheels and whitewalls on a Falcon wagon could look so cool?

 

Gotta' buncha' pictures of my '63 Falcon Futura 2 door sedan in my album wit' my dopey profile:

BACK TO THE FUTURA , i bought a 65 hardtop from barrie this summer. Bought it off a guy named Scott. Ring any bells?

 

I'm with you, man, I just yanked the head off my '64 I bought last spring, love these cars, is your's a '62 or '63?
