I have always liked the 1964-65 falcons a lot because of the compact size and European racing history. My dad had a few falcons and falcon Rancheros groing up and I was really close to buying one when I was in highschool, but ended up getting a Porsche 914.



My brother bought this car (1964 Ford Falcon V8 Sprint) in 1997 when he was a freshman in highschool. The car was basically a shell, and he has slowely got it to the point where it looks and drives well, but need a few little things to be ironed out...but that is always the case with old cars. The car is powered by a fairly stock Ford 302 and a 5 spd manual transmission out of a late model Mustang.



I thought I would share some pics and I'll try and dig out some old pics to show how far it has come.

 

Wow, very cool! I love Falcons! Everyone thinks I'm crazy, but they have one of the best shapes of the era, imo.

This one is my favorite Falcon of all time though:

 

Car looks great. I know he poured a lot into it.

 

Great looking falcon.

 

hah dude, thats what was on my mind when I opened this thread. That car is such a badass!

 

Wow both cars posted are insane. What is the year of the car that alzilla posted??

 

1963 Ford Falcon Sprint owned by Michael Eisenberg.

 

That black 63 is AWESOME!

I have always liked the 64-65s better, but when the early ones are set up right like this one they really look good.

 

I love all Falcons but I really like the rounded look of the 63s for some reason. Either way, your brother's car is beautiful! Did he do all the work himself?
