My 64 Falcon, I have enjoyed her for close to 10 years, now it's time for someone else to enjoy her.
Want more pictures or details, just let me know. Original 170 Ford-O-Matic,...
Yes, as per BeerBelly & Luva65wagon's comments on the slight non intrusive modifications and sticking to the streets. Since she is a 170 with Clifford header dual exhaust, an autolite 1 bbl, stock...
Yes, in deed, you are all correct. These Falcons are quite the gem and there is NO need to speed. If I needed to speed I would just take the next set of keys that are hanging in the key box. And...
This weekend since we are getting some light rain in California I was wondering something I never questioned before.
my 64 Falcon Convertible runs great (170 with Ford O matic). While she runs...

This are 4 lug custom wheels. Yes, she is still a 170 after all. However, I have been wrestling with the idea of doing a couple of things to that effect.
Upgrade to an Australian six...
Here is my bird..
Hi Guys
it's time to put my bird up for sale. She has been a good car throughout but I it's time to let someone else enjoy her. She was an original basket case when i got her, yet with your...
I have no clock, but do have a Retro Radio, either way I have a 67 Dodge A100 and the battery never drains, so I getter get a good tester (no harbor freight units) and see if I can track it down. ...
I moved to the Exide 24FX and the battery held up ok for about 1.5 years before it started to fade on me despite of religiously connecting the car to a trickle charger. Since then I have returned...
Well, Happy 4th of July guys !!!!
so in-between chores today I disconnected the "vent" tube from the gas tank and blew it out with about 80lbs of compressed air.
And the result was as I...
the Gas was dripping out.
Today its pretty hot (93) so waiting for the sun to go down before I disconnect the tube and put some pressure into it to blow it out.
I have looked at the tube and for the fact that it permits the gas to flow out I have to imagine it is not kinked or pinched.
The cap is a solid cap and has no venting mechanism whats ever.
That is an awesome story not to mention you have a great looking Falcon.
howdy, can you post a few pictures ?
So my restoration is now complete and even though there are small things to do on the car, I know that 98% of her is done. Recently I installed a Retrosound Radio without the need to have to cut my...
And if the vent tube was blocked then how did it start leaking through the tube. No explanation for that. Maybe I need a gas cap that allows the tank to vent? But that is the purpose of the tube. ...
That is my concern as well. In the mean time, yes the cap is off, the trunk is open and all is well. For now.....
Hi Guys,
I just returned from a local car show here in the San Fernando Valley where the temperature topped 105. Once I got home I pulled in to the garage and was doing my normal walk around the...
Hi
if you are still in the market for a convertible I have a 64 Futura.
rotisserie restoration completed 2 years ago, 1,000% solid body no rust or rot runs great.
Let me know
Wow, i wish you luck on your crusade if you are looking for "The" exact car that your dad had.
thanks for all the insight guys.
First I should say that restoring the car took three years and it was a full rotisserie restoration that involved a donor car and a lot of fabrication. I drive...
Hi
I have been doing some reading and trying to find the right thread that can help me determine if it's worth the trouble as well as get some guidance on installing a C4 transmission.
I have...
I did a little digging in my falcon box of parts and it looks like I still have the original light switch so I'll clean it out and give it a try and see if it works better than this $26 model. I...
