Ford Falcon 408 Stroker 1964

Allmän beskrivning : QUALITY RESTORATION , 408 STROKER V8, 4 SP TOP LOADER, DETROIT LOCKER, PS, DISCS

There is something fantastic when someone puts serious 408ci V8 power into the lightweight body of a 1964 Ford Falcon Futura. But more than just brutally powerful, when you check out the everything from the shine of the bumpers, to the presentation of the engine bay, you begin to realize the details were a priority, too.
The right paint can set the tone for the ideal first impression, and this one gets it right. It's the Bright Blue Atlantic Metallic from PPG, and since there's only about 4,000 miles on this whole build, it has the depth to radiate nicely in the sunshine. So this Falcon can draw in attention even when it's parked. And these second-gen Falcons really got the look right. They retained the afterburner-style taillights, and up front, there's a bit more overhang for a more aggressive appearance. And with the full-length Futura trim looking like an arrow pointing this car forward, these were quite sporty compacts. Add to that upgrades like the 408 fender callouts, dual exhaust tips, and iconic Magnum 500 wheels (with Falcon center caps) and this is a well-finished total package.
Inside there have been nice concessions for comfort like fresh carpeting, custom door panels, and newer seat covers with comfy cloth. There's even provisions for an upgraded AM/FM stereo. But from the moment you sit down, you know this was really built for performance. The classic-style wood and chrome steering wheel offers a nice grip; the auxiliary readout give you a clear picture of what's going on under the hood; and your right hand may never want to leave the Hurst shifter.
You're going to want to pop the hood every time you park this Falcon, because there was a terrific investment in the engine bay. Not only did they paint the fender walls to match the exterior, but also the valve covers, power steering pump, pulleys, and so much more. And the components that are not blue are either a gloss black of a bright polish. So you might just win awards for the presentation alone. But more than just look outstanding, this V8 is also a true powerhouse. It's a 351 cubic-inch Windsor motor stroked to 408ci total. According to the consignor, it has been blue printed and balanced. It also has go-fast goodies like a large Holley 750 CFM double-pumper four-barrel carburetor, hi-rise intake, and custom ceramic-coated long tube headers. You have complete control over this monster motor and its thunderous soundtrack thanks to a close-ratio Ford toploader four-speed manual transmission. Making sure this power gets to the ground are all the right strong upgrades. This includes a hydraulic clutch, a Ford 9-inch Detroit Locker rear end, and stout five-lug axles. The suspension has been given the right investments, too. Up front you have fresher bushings and a thick sway bar, and the rear is reinforced with traction bars. Add in power steering, front disc brakes, and wide BF Goodrich T/As, you this is one wild Falcon that's easy to tame.
This is a solid and powerful custom that packs a serious punch in a lightweight classic package. So you know something this desirable won't stay in our showroom long. 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.
