Ford Falcon Inline 6 1963

Allmän beskrivning : GREAT DRIVER FALCON, PRICED TO MOVE, 170 I6, AUTO, SOUTHERN CAR, VERY STOCK!!

You'll be hard-pressed to find a garden-variety used car, let alone a cool vintage car with bright red paint, a comfortable interior, and a peppy yet economical engine for less than the price tag on this 1963 Ford Falcon 2-door sedan. Why not commute in style instead of in some anonymous rental return?
Despite its tidy dimensions, Ford packs a lot of style into its popular compact model. Looking a lot like a 7/8-size Galaxie, it has a bit of Thunderbird in the front fenders, a slick hood scoop, and, of course, Ford's attractive jet-inspired taillights. The bright red paint job on this one accentuates the crisp body lines with two shades of gray that look right on the vintage sheetmetal and give this affordable classic a very upscale look. The workmanship is actually quite good, which you might not expect at this price, but someone obviously did this one with love rather than profit as their motive. Is it perfect? Of course not. But aside from a few bumps and bruises that are merely evidence of being driven and enjoyed, it's still plenty flashy. There's also a lot of brightwork that will satisfy any fan of the era, from the nicely detailed grille and fender ornaments to the bright chrome rear bumper and FALCON block letters on the rear panel.
The interior isn't totally correct, but it sure looks great! Those are the original seats, now covered with handsome red fabric seat inserts that duplicate the original patterns and are a lot more comfortable than the original vinyl. Close to the same shade as the bright red bodywork, it's a combination that would look at home on an upscale European import as much as on this sturdy Ford. They also made up a set of matching door panels, and fitted red carpets that contrast nicely with the black floor mats, so it's clear that some money has been spent here. The steering wheel is nicely finished in red as well, and without so much as an AM radio, it has an honest 1960s look that many of us, tired of technology in our cars, might find refreshing. And despite being a small car, this Falcon has a spacious trunk with what appears to be the original mat and a full-sized spare tire.
They say that everything goes in cycles, and despite the horsepower wars warming up in the early '60s, the Falcon instead went with style and economy instead of brute horsepower. The 170 cubic inch inline-six works well with the lightweight Falcon, and delivers impressive fuel mileage, even today. The engine bay is tidy, the block wears correct black engine enamel with bright red tinwork, and all the belts and hoses are recent so it's ready to go. It exhales through a single exhaust system, as original, and the automatic transmission delivers smooth shifts and remains unobtrusive in traffic. The undercarriage, as you can see in the photos, is clean but not detailed for show, making this a solid, reliable car that's ready for anything. Even the tires are economical, being modest 185/80/13 whitewall radials with factory wheelcovers.
Whatever you're looking for, whether it's an affordable hobby car or just fun transportation, this Falcon delivers. 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.
