Ford Falcon 302 V8 1965

Allmän beskrivning : BEAUTIFULLY RESTORED SPRINT, ROLLER 302 V8, T5 5 SPD, WILWOOD 4 WHL DISCS, A+

This custom 1965 Ford Falcon Futura Sprint is nothing but great surprises from every angle. Exceptionally shiny on the outside, amazingly plush on the inside, and a thumping 302 V8 with a five-speed under the hood just scratches the surface one this terrific and speedy custom-built classic.
These second-generation Falcons seemed to strike a nice balance between American flair and European sensibilities, and this one really turns it up a notch. It starts with an excellent recent application of British Racing Green Mica borrowed from modern Jaguars. Of course, those black racing stripes on the hood are pure American flair. And that custom set of scoops on the fiberglass hood makes this one look like its much bigger brother – the race-bred R-code Ford Fairlane. There's plenty of great 60s-style chrome on the grille and bumpers, but brightwork that everyone will really be taking a look at are the addition of side pipes (another indication that this is a serious street machine.) Of course, these Futuras always looked fast stinging still thanks to the design that incorporates the full-length accent line. It gives this hardtop the appeal of an arrow cutting through the wind. And with all this attractiveness, don't forget that the 1965 Falcon is also a difficult car to find. The Ford Mustang production was in full swing by the time this car came around. Consequently, Ford only sold about 2,800 of these premium Futura Sprint hardtop coupes that year.
The moment you peek inside of this hardtop, you know they made all the right investments in the interior. After all, those front bucket seats with comfortable cloth inserts are a full custom integration. And not only do they have the kind of modern bolstering to be all-day comfortable, but also yours even power adjusts to the ideal position. All the right vintage pieces are in place, and so you get the ultra-wide speedometer, plenty of bright trim, and even the AM radio is still on display. Oh yes, that's a CB you've spotted under the dash, too. But what you'll really love is how this is a true driver's machine. The sports steering wheel is grippy, the Hurst shifter is calling out for your right hand, and the important tach is front and center on the dash.
You can instantly tell the engine bay was built for performance. The extra tidy setup gives you a clear view at the 302 cubic-inch V8. It has been enhanced and fortified with Scorpion roller rockers, Ford Motorsports E303 camshaft, AFR Renegade aluminum heads, Ford Racing cast valve covers, Holley four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock intake, and headers feeding those growling side pipes. This monster motor has all the right supporting components – from the full bracing kit to the aluminum radiator that keeps it all running cool. You have full control over this monster motor and its thunderous soundtrack thank to the upgrade to a T5 five-speed manual transmission that's been reinforced with Ford Motorsports clutch, pressure plate, and flywheel. This feeds a stout Ford 8-inch rear running versatile 3.50 gears. And because all this power is nothing without control, you have great features like traction bars, sways bars front & rear, and slotted & vented Wilwood disc brakes behind each one of those polished slotted mag wheels.
This is a serious custom build. We have the receipts and photos to prove it, but all you really have to do is look at the amazingly clean undercarriage to understand the level of detail that went into making this unique coupe. This is the powerful, distinct, and rare classic you've been waiting for. Don't miss your chance, 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.
