Fantastic 1963 Falcon Futura Convertible on 2040-cars

You are bidding on a fantastic Ford Falcon Fututa Convertible. This is a great car to own for many reasons. First, this car has to be about the simplest mechanically that you will ever see. Everything is right out in the open and uncomplicated. Just look at the engine bay in the pictures—need to change spark plugs and you could be done with all six by the time you did one in some cars where you can barely see the parts much less easily reach them.
Next, this design had a reputation for being a simply bulletproof design that ran forever. It is still that way, this thing just keeps running reliably. It has been in my family since 1986, garage kept that entire time. You can have a nice, easy-driving, fun car for years to come.
And remember, this is the platform Lee Iaccoca used as the basis for the first Mustang. Why do you care? Because Ford made almost 2 million of this platform between Falcon and Mustang, insuring availability of parts for decades to come. Depending on what your plans are, you could probably update much of the mechanics with parts from those Mustang-kits and make it drive even nicer, the parts will probably bolt right up. (NOTE: I do not guarantee these parts would bolt right up, just that Ford used many of the same parts on both models so they should be interchangeable with little or no effort.)
Falcons appeal to people who like a Mustang but don't want the extra cost or flash that goes with it—they are fun!
This is the same model that Brad Pitt drove in “Ocean's 11.”
Now, onto this car. As I said before, it has been in the family since 1986. For all of that time it has been garage kept, never seen snow, and been purely an enjoyment car. The body is in near-flawless condition. The engine was rebuild in about 1990 but has only around 20,000 miles since the rebuild. The engine was listed as the 170 but when it was rebuild we checked the bore/stroke measurements and they indicated 200CID. As it is the same engine family most parts are the same so it should not be an issue unless you rebuild it, and if you know enough to do that you will be advanced enough to do it correct I am sure. Interior and top are in very good shape, top go up and down flawlessly.
The car is located in Pittsburgh, PA. Do not let this be the one where you say, “I wish I had bought that car on eBay!” A note on questions. This is my dad's car that I am listing for him. He is new to using computers so if you have an "eBay Question" I will be the one to answer it. If it is a "car" question I may be able to answer it or I may refer you to call him. If you are talking to him and a question comes up that he cannot answer on payments, etc he will likely refer you back to me. We will get your question answered but do ask your patience. |

GMC Hummer EV SUV first drive, RIP Camaro, Ferrari Roma Spider | Autoblog Podcast # 773
Fri, Mar 24 2023In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by News Editor Joel Stocksdale. They start off with one of the week's biggest official news items — the impending death of the sixth-gen Chevrolet Camaro. On the subject of powerful American cars, they pivot to a teaser from Stellantis execs that there are big things ahead for its Dodge Charger SRT Daytona Banshee concept. From there, they look at Ferrari's new topless Roma and then get into Ford's multi-billion-dollar electric vehicle pivot. Speaking of expensive EVs, Joel just got back from driving the new GMC Hummer SUV. He also had the new F-150 Lightning Pro in his driveway, and that's followed by Greg's update on Autoblog's long-term Toyota Sienna. Autoblog Podcast # 773 Get The Podcast Apple Podcasts – Subscribe to the Autoblog Podcast in iTunes Spotify – Subscribe to the Autoblog Podcast on Spotify RSS – Add the Autoblog Podcast feed to your RSS aggregator MP3 – Download the MP3 directly Rundown News Chevrolet Camaro production will officially end after 2024 model year Dodge CEO teases more to come from Charger SRT Daytona Banshee Ferrari Roma Spider returns a front-engined soft top to the lineup Ford Model e losing billions as it says EV unit should be seen as startup What we're driving Ford F-150 Lightning Pro 2024 GMC Hummer EV SUV 2023 Toyota Sienna Platinum AWD Feedback Email – Podcast@Autoblog.com Review the show on Apple Podcasts Autoblog is now live on your smart speakers and voice assistants with the audio Autoblog Daily Digest.

New York Mets outfielder turns spring training into his personal car show
Wed, Feb 24 2016New York Mets outfielder Yoenis Cespedes is known for his wide range of talents. He can hit for power, average, has good speed, and is solid in the field. His car collection is equally versatile and diverse, and it's been on display this week at spring training. Every day has brought a different car, and it has his teammates and the media atwitter. Cespedes rolled up Wednesday to the Mets facility in Port St. Lucie in a Lamborghini Aventador. It's black with blue trim. Anthony DiComo with MLB.com tweeted this: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. ESPN's Darren Rovell tweeted the Lambo has a custom exhaust that cost $80,000 and shoots out flames. Of course, that's already old news. His Alfa Romeo showed up today, too. Apparently Mets infielder Wilmer Flores has been driving it. That's an ultra-rare 8C Competizione, brought to you by Robert Brender of SNY.TV. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. The Italian delights are stunning, but his Tuesday arrival was arguably the craziest: a Polaris Slingshot. DiComo captured this. It's customized with gaudy wire wheels, red accents, and Cespedes' No. 52 on the hood. Subtle. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. Only in this fleet would Monday's ride appear pedestrian. It was 'only' an F-250. It was raised on huge wheels, had a custom grille, and towered over that Maserati behind it. Jon Santucci of Scripps newspapers observed it. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. At this rate, we should probably skip Geneva and get credentialed for Mets spring training. Cespedes signed a three-year $75-million contract with the Mets in the off-season. He's also played for the Oakland Athletics, Boston Red Sox, and Detroit Tigers. Related Video: Image Credit: Getty Images Celebrities Design/Style Ford Lamborghini Performance baseball
Ken Block's Gymkhana 8 to feature Dubai Police cars?
Tue, Feb 23 2016Yesterday we showed you the shiny Ford Fiesta that Ken Block will slide, spin, and hoon through the next Gymkhana video. In case the image above isn't clear, that video will drop at midnight EST on February 30th on the Ford Performance YouTube channel. We don't know all the entire premise of the video yet, but this Tweet from the man himself reveals that the video will be set in Dubai. Block is standing on the Fiesta we saw yesterday, and arrayed behind him are a handful of those famous Dubai Police cars you're probably familiar with. The force has a fleet of sportscars and supercars, and the purpose is outreach and goodwill among its citizenry, not necessarily the pursuit of criminals. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. From left to right, we can see a Maserati GranTurismo, Porsche 911, what looks to be a Nissan GT-R obscured by Block's Fiesta, a McLaren (likely a 650S), Ford Mustang, and a Ferrari 599 of some ilk. Will they take part? Maybe Block will try and run from what might be the most horsepower-intensive police fleet in the world. We'll have answers (and a few minutes of pure Block hooniganism) in a few days. Related Video:
