When I was a teenager my best friend had a mint 63 Falcon Futura with a 260 v-8 four speed.The wiring burned up under the dash and he sold it for $100. Sob…
I wish i grew up in the 50′s and 60s just for the cars. And the music too. lol
i thought the same thing. I painted a 70 monte carlo once – white and it had spots like that where primer showed through from not enough paint
Yeah I always thought they were neat little cars too,I saw a nice sporty futura sprint ’64 convertable riding around my town,an older gentleman had it,it was ice clue with a white interior,white top and had wire wheel covers with spinners.A friend of my dad’s had one with a 6 banger and a 4 speed,a hopped up 6banger with a 4bbl and headers and a 4speed,would be cool in one of these.It doesnt really cost alot to hop up a 6banger and when hopped up they do sound and rumble like a V-8
I’ve always wanted a falcon.
Holman & Moody are still around .. do you have anything powered by them?
Just watched the 7 Liter video and now this one. I like seeing Jay in these cars more than the creme de la rare exotic creme. How can you not love these old girls? T shirt and jeans down to the Corner store for a snack.. maybe a drag race on the way home… or a detour to your buddies garage. Shoot me an email when you drop a 550 horse 408W in this one dressed in 260 livery… and the accompanying video of your Cobra/Corvette stalking in it.. at 2200lbs as it sits- would be tempting.
kill her… slowly…
the front drivers side fender of this car looked a different white than the rest of the car – has Jay bent this car? if so how?
everything was extra on those – maybe thats where the term “ah la carte” came from…I dont know.
my sister and her friends rolled our family Falcon Wagon.
My first car was a 1962 Mercury Comet. 170, 3 on the tree. Got 25+ MPG.
My dad had a ’65 Falcon Sprint. I want one now…
The 63 Falcon was my first street rod,I had a blast with it all through high school.
Very nice american car. Not too extravagant as some other american cars from that period.
One of my buddies in high school had one of these. My favorite Ford.
are these ok for taller drivers ~6’4″ ? i’m not sure as to Jay’s height (heard 5’9-6′ for his height) so not sure how to compare. it looks like a nice balanced package that would be fun to mod and restore
i have a 61 falcon in restoration now.
Pity they didn’t release the 2 door sprint here in Aust with the V8. The old man had a 170ci white XL four door – not a bad car in its day. We got the 2 door version in 64 with the XM & later XP with the 6ers up to 200ci. They bring good money these days & have that 60′s classic look. Always prefered the Aust XL front panels to the US version – just looked a bit sharper to me.
Okay, that’s crazy. I’m just about Jay’s age (but look *much* younger…sorry Jay
and grew up in Detroit. This car was one of my all-time favorites. Like this body style the best, and it was a handy-sized car, but could still handle a romping small V8 well. And they way this car was done is very close to what I’d envisioned. Really hit me between the eyes. Thanks for giving us a tour!
sides kinda sharp but the front and rear fascia kinda wimpy
i will take a chevy II any day!!!
Have a look at the current Falcons and masturbate about how good your Mustangs could have been….
One of my all time favorites!!!!
My dad had one of these-1963 Ford Falcon Sprint. Awesome car. It never got stuck anywhere and it was easy to fix. It had a beautiful shape and sound. This video brings Wonderful memories. I remember the little side windows would blow fresh air into my face on hot summer nights.
