falcon guys

what do you guys think.... still needs paint, but i just lowered it, and got some new rims and tires on the ol bird. love to see some pics of yours .. and yes i know theres already a thread about falcons done right. thanks brett.....anyone with one from m***.

 

next is dual exhaust tucked up tight .. it hits the pavment every pothole right now.

 

I like it ****s huh on the exhaust on falcons hard to get it any lower if your running headers.Looks like you don't have much room to spare I was thinking to get that slamned look how hard would it be to section the back since falcons are unibody ?

 

Here is mine. I dropped the front, but plan on dropping the rear to match this next weekend.

Its a work in progress, and I still need to build the tubular stainless grill I have planned. I have already recessed the headlights 2" to be able to do this.

Here are the pics:

 

sectioned!!! wow i dont even wanna think about that haha.. id love to see one done!! its not that low but itl do for now

 

sweet dude sorry i couldnt help with the u bolt size .. is it a six with duals ?

 

yeah she looks good my 64 has a long way off but when I do get to lowering it I will just probably use blocks and cut the springs a little.

 

yeah, its totally stock under the hood 144/3spd . Gets great mileage, and is my daily. Its hard to mess with nearly 20MPG. The exhaust is run back through a single OEM style muffler and then split after that into duals. It is not loud, but has a nice tone, and is just the right volume. I'm afraid that if I went with a louder muffler, it would end up sounding buzzy.

 

thanks man... do you have a pic of yours?... im so happy that lowering is as cheap as cutting coils and 30 dollar lowering blocks.. but they are sweet lowered! and they handle better, but the ride is ****ttt on these new england roads

 

nicee yea i have a flomaster 40 on mine right now but i also have a cut out right behind the header .. haha and it is ridiculous... sounds like a bi plane ripping through town

 

Well I'm guilty as charged yanked out the 170 and have a 289 bored .30 over.I know I know but I had to have a v8.Hey that's a comercial

 

Not sure about sectioning one, but here are pics of one that has been slammed, and had the from arches raised up. Looks AWESOME in my opinion.

 

nice t-town that front end almost looks like a 60's t-bird.

 

Check this one out you should se all the work they have done to the back and as well as the front shock towers and bay to get this stance.

 

i would imagine .. damn thats fine

 

that tube grill will be like *** to the eyes man .. great work !!

 

Here is my 62 futura.
I hope to start work on it this fall after I get my 54F100 done.

I plan on building a replica Holman Moody Rally car out of it.

I think your '62 Futura is a '63 according to the roof.??

 

I ran the VIN; 62 San Jose Ca plant
Also has 1962-1970 UCLA parking permits on the front bumper.

 

sweet man thats a solid body

 

welcome to the Falcon nest. I'm starting to think the HAMB is secretly a Falcon site. The "other falcon thread" is just plain rediculous. For the first 4 years or so I was here, the main web page header was a 1960 Hot Rod cover featuring 3 Falcons. I think Ryan has a secret love.

 

haha true falcons done right i looked at every car on there!!! your ride is sweet love the color

 

looks *****in...

 

i want to paint the top half over the body line like this ..

 

just dont know how i would finish off the front body line ? any ideas ? thanks Brett

 

Dude where are you from in m***?

I live in woonsocket, just over the border near bellingham/blackstone.

Sweet though.

Mine is on stands right now, i'm cutting the coils in the front.

I blocked the rear with 2" blocks and took out the helper springs.

I need a strut rod in the front though, one is bent.

when it's back together, I'll post pics.

 

heres a picture of mine from a couple of years ago
