It's a real special piece, one of very few left with original paint and interior. Extensively restored recently and looks and drives amazing. 1 previous owner who kept it garaged in SoCal, a true "barn find".
I have all the paperwork/receipts for all the following; Rebuilt engine, new cream color (time appropriate) convertible top, new convertible top motor, new electrical wire harness, new weather stripping all around, classic california black plates, new gas and air filters. new Alpine stereo system with 6 cd changer hidden in the glove compartment, new heater core, new transmission, new light bulbs, new turn signal lights, new car alarm with kill switch, new tires, new shocks, new carpet, new battery, new starter, new front and end gaskets, new dipstick, new plaid trunk mat with spare tire cover. All parts are classic original and time appropriate.
I always pamper the Falcon with 89 grade gasoline regularly and 91 grade gasoline on longer trips.
Works like a dream, recently I drove it over to Joshua Tree, CA down to Tuscan, AZ and up to Vegas, NV then back to LA and had no problems, this car rides solid and is great on gas.
A true 60's convertible classic cruiser. All original and classically restored inside and out.
No rust, no dents, body is straight, all chrome and emblems are there. 2 sets of keys with alarm on it and one blank set. Title is clean and registration is valid. 53,200 original miles.
Hurts me to sell it but I need a down payment to buy a house and it's the most precious thing I have.
Please email me with any questions, additional pictures or to arrange a meeting.
Thanks
History of the 1964-1965 Ford Falcon
The reskinned 1964 Falcon was available with the underpowered 144 six, the adequate 170 six or a new-for-1964 bored-and-stroked 200 cubic-inch "small-block" six transplanted from the Fairlane line. A 260 V-8 also was available in any Falcon; putting out 164 horsepower in a car weighing in at 2,500 pounds meant some serious "giddyup." This car was the inspiration for the Mustang in April 1964, and it shared its bones with the original 1960 Falcon. The 1964 Falcon's look was new: boxier and classier, with sculpted body sides expanding toward Ford's trademark round taillights. The Falcon suddenly found itself out on racetracks and drag strips, instead of just grocery trips with mom and kids.

Ford starting up 2.0L EcoBoost engine production in Ohio
Fri, 22 Feb 2013Joe Hinrichs, Ford's President of The Americas (pictured above), announced today that in late 2014, the automaker will be building the 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder at its Cleveland Engine Plant, a move requiring a $200-million investment and the hiring of 450 new employees. European-built Ford products will continue to source this engine from the Valencia, Spain plant where all of these EcoBoost four-cylinder engines are currently built, and the new Cleveland engines will be used for all North American-made models.
Ford is planning to build its popular EcoBoost engines regionally to maximize production capacity and meet customer demand. Last year, Ford sold 334,364 vehicles with EcoBoost engines in the US alone, and that number is expected to swell to more than 500,000 by the end of this year, with global sales expected to total 1.6 million. By 2015, Ford says that 95 percent of its nameplates will offer an EcoBoost engine.
One such vehicle that could be adding an EcoBoost engine, according to Automotive News, is none other than the 2015 Ford Mustang. The report says that Ford could use either the 2.0-liter EcoBoost or an upcoming 2.3-liter EcoBoost in the sixth-generation pony car.
What an Atlas-based Ford F-150 might look like
Thu, 27 Jun 2013Just ahead of January's Detroit Auto Show, surprising rumors pegged Ford as revealing some sort of F-150 concept, perhaps as a hurried effort to deflate some of the buzz building around General Motors' new Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra twins, which were also making their auto show debut. Those rumblings turned out to be true, as Ford rolled into the Motor City with its Atlas concept (inset, right), touting the truck's bold styling as a precursor to the next-generation F-Series.
The show truck featured all kinds of clever details, including active wheel shutters and a front air dam that raised and lowered to improve aerodynamics while preserving off-road ability. It also had a genuinely snarly face. And it's that pugnacious snout that may well be on its way to production. The good folks at TopSpeed have worked up the plausible-looking artist's rendering above by cross-referencing the Atlas concept with what little has been revealed from recent spy shots. The look is toned-down pretty dramatically from the concept truck, but its Atlas roots are clear, with a massive three-bar grille and bracket-shaped headlamps hiding a next-generation EcoBoost engine. In the rendering, the show truck's deeply contoured hood and roofline have been ditched and larger, more traditional side mirrors have been fitted - all likely concessions in the move to production sheetmetal.
While Ford has yet to officially announce when it will unveil the 2015 F-150, all signs point to next year's Detroit Auto Show - one year after the Atlas shrugged off GM's new pickups.
Watch this Ford F-150 SVT Raptor fly like an eagle [UPDATE]
Mon, 04 Feb 2013The Ford F-150 SVT Raptor is a very capable truck right out of the box, but "capable" has never translated into "invincible." Just ask the owner of the machine in this video. In it, the driver gets frisky with an aggressive jump with plenty of speed on his hands. The result is enough air to make Vaughn Gittin Jr. blush. As always, it's not the launch that's painful, but the re-entry. Gravity eventually asserts its dominance over the $43,630 pickup in a big way, and when it comes crashing down, it does so with a vengeance.
The impact was hard enough to set off both the alarm and multiple airbags inside the cabin. It's unclear if anyone was injured in the stunt, but we certainly wouldn't be surprised to hear that was the case. You can check out the stunt in the video below, and remember, when in doubt, back out of the throttle. Be warned, there may be some explicit/NSFW language in the clip.
UPDATE: Second video added with an even better look at the jump added below.
