I see it posted every once in awhile on a couple of the Falcon Facebook pages - such a sweet car.

Scott Zimmerman just dug a 63 "t-bird roof style" Falcon out of a garage up past Snoqualmie, so that's a perfect project car with minimal rust. I think he posted it on the Facebook page as well. Hardtops are getting hard to find in project shape, but I'll keep an eye out for you as well.
Yep, if interested Larry send me a private message. It's a 63 2 door sedan with the T-bird style roof as Roger mentioned. Hardtops weren't until a little later that year. It's a base model with the 144 6 cyl and pretty solid as it's been stored indoor for probably 20 yrs on a concrete floor. The only rust I saw needing replacement, or patching, was the drivers floor pan. Quarters and rockers look very good. Everything appears to be original except for the poor baby blue paint over the original Corinthian White. Looking up the vehicles weight yesterday they were between 2300-2400 lbs. It would make a great project car.
