History Wanted!!! 1964/65 Ford Falcon A/FX Pics!

Love this picture

 

That car was raced by Arnold Lee Dowlen cousin to Percy Dowlen who race the Hagewood Motors Thunderbolt in the 60s. There is more info on it in the Thunderbolt thread on here. A member says the car is still around but as a street legal car. He saw it at a car show several years ago.

 

I love these birds of prey

 

Phil's 65 may have been the baddest but Huberts 65 was the coolest.

 

Falconwagon62, whose yellow '65 is that in your post? It looks like a car that used to be from GA.

 

Cool pic!

 

Here are some more pics from the Wild Child archives.

 

I would like to know more about the yellow car if anyone has information.

The Fermier Brothers' 406-385 Ford vs. Bonner at Thunderbolt Raceway in Florida. The match was to be Sox & Martin vs Bonner but Sox broke so they handicapped the B/S against Bonner. Sox laid the rosin for the Fermier car. Sox can be seen in the striped sweater and cowboy hat behind the Fermier car.

I also asked this on the Drag cars in motion thread but I'll ask again here. Whose Falcon is this???

 

I wish I new Falconred. I was wondering the same thing. I like the way that one looks.

I was thinking it was David Lyall's all fiberglass one. But this one looks like it has an axle under the front.

 

falconred,I saw photo of what looks like this same car,but painted yellow&blue.Named the GOLDEN SPRINT,to see photo go to Detroit dragway joe stevens photo collection,go to albums on left side of main page.In group of 38 photos given to Patrice by Mr Calahan,some good photos.I spent a lot of time at DD,do not remember that falcon,Dave's orange falcon was there alot,larry

 

They look a lot alike but the headers are different and the front wheelwell is cut a little different and it looks like the front wheels may be a little different. I never realized there were as many Falcon FX cars around.

 

Fast Eddie;The Falcon looks GREAT!!!! ROY.
