Ford Falcon 260 V8 1964

Allmän beskrivning : BEAUTIFUL FALCON CONVERTIBLE! NEW TOP, V8 W/ AUTO, GREAT PAINT / INTERIOR, NICE!

Everything a Mustang can do, this Falcon does equally well for a fraction of the price. Packing a burbling 260 cubic inch V8, a fresh interior, and a clean Skylight Blue paint job, this vintage ragtop is ready to have some fun this summer.
Everyone knows that the Falcon begat the Mustang, but somehow the Mustang became an A-list celebrity while the Falcon remained a performance bargain. This one has a very nice repaint over straight California sheetmetal that looks fantastic. Looking more like a baby Fairlane, the Falcon's tidy proportions and ability to handle a V8 under the hood make it a very entertaining car on the street. Someone has spent a good deal of effort bringing this one up to its current clean state, and the overall look is very nicely done. Gaps are good, there's no sign of rust damage or repairs, even around the wheel wells, and the paint has a brilliant shine that comes from modern two-stage urethane. The Falcon got plenty of brightwork, too, including the sweeping trim along the flanks, a bright grille, and the highly detailed insert on the trunk that holds the 'Futura' script, all of which is in excellent shape. Round taillights reflect Ford's fascination with jet propulsion and further enhance the family resemblance.
This car also sports an ultra-clean matching blue interior, complete with new two-tone seat covers, fresh carpets, and nicely finished door panels. The factory instruments cover the basics, along with an aftermarket tach mounted up high on the dash and a center console down between the seats. The dash is nicely finished and we love the woodgrained wheel, which gives the Falcon an upscale feel. A factory AM radio still lives in the dash, but a newer AM/FM/CD stereo has been neatly installed in the glove box and feeds speakers hidden throughout the interior, so the original looks aren't spoiled. A cool light blue power convertible top was just installed and fits beautifully, stowing itself under a matching blue boot. The Falcon also gets a good-sized trunk with no issues, so it's ready to hit the road.
Underhood, the goal was clearly to create a super-sanitary engine bay that features the 260 cubic inch V8 like artwork. Satin black inner fenders and firewall are the perfect backdrop for what we believe is the original engine. It is further augmented with bright chrome valve covers and a matching open-element air cleaner with correct reproduction decals on top. Wiring and plumbing are neatly done in the factory style, and you'll note that as a '64, this car still runs a generator (alternators would arrive in late '64). The engine runs superbly, quick to start and idling with a wonderful V8 burble from the recent dual exhaust system. Underneath, it's quite solid with no signs of major deterioration in any of the critical unit-body support structures and the factory braces are still in place. A 2-speed Ford-O-Matic automatic transmission feeds an 8-inch rear end with 3.25 gears inside and those 205/70/14 BFG radials on Magnum 500 wheels complete the look.
This Falcon has a great look that's far nicer than you'd expect. Falcons are red hot right now and cars like this cool Spring never hang around for long, so call today!

om Ford
Ford, som grundades 1902, har utan tvekan förändrat historien om bilvärlden mer än någon annan biltillverkare genom att införa de första folkbilen Modell T 1908. De hade producerat mer än 15 miljoner bilar i slutet av produktionen 1927, genom vilket T hade blivit föråldrade.

Ford lanserade den första lågpris V8-motor driven bil 1932. 1932 V8 var en omedelbar hit med överlägsen hantering och prestanda för många betydligt mer expansiva bilar av dagen. Inte undra på 32 V8 Ford har blivit en sådan favorit bland heta rodders runt om i världen med 32 Deuce Coupe som sin ikon.

Under kriget Ford helt stänga civil bilproduktionen att ägna alla sina resurser till de allierade krigsansträngningarna (1942-1945) De används för att bygga B-24 bombplan, flygmotorer, jeepar, M-4 stridsvagnar, militära lastbilar och Bren-gun bärare och mer än 30.000 super laddade Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 motorer till Mosquito och Lancaster bombplan samt P-51 Mustang fighters. Efter kriget Ford bilar i USA blev större och flashier tillsammans med sina konkurrenter. I 60: s Ford var tillbaka i förgrunden igen när man inför deras kommersiella hit Mustang 1964. Mustang var så populär tävlingen var tvungen att följa Fords exempel och ponycar fenomenet tog över USA. Under åren ponnyer växte några muskler tills oljekrisen döda äntligen dödat dem.

På sextiotalet rusade Ford i internationell motorsport scenen med en raseri. Efter misslyckade Ferrari övertagande, då Enzo Ferrari hade klippt affären av med Henry Ford II gör det senare absolut koka av vrede, vände Ford till Lola i Storbritannien för att producera en Ferrari slog långdistans racer efter. Samarbetet mellan Ford och Lola skapade den mäktiga Ford GT40 som absolut slog Ferrari i Le Mans 24 flera gånger.

I Europa införde Ford några av de mest episka race och rallybilar av 60-talet som bygger på ödmjuka familj sedaner; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, och Escort 1600RS med de ikoniska Cosworth BDA motorer.

Idag klassiska Fords är mycket populär bland entusiaster och ett stort urval av klassiska Fords finns till försäljning på www.ClassicDigest.com
