1961 ford falcon

Seller's Notes

This is a long term project that I�m tired of looking at. I just enjoy building them as a hobby not to make money. A few things need finished up. This would be a great father son car that has room for improvement as you go. This car did not have factory seat belts. It�s is very fast as is I�m sure much faster than any v8 falcon sprint was in the day. With a set of heads and cam it would be dangerous! It runs great, it drives around the neighborhood and short drives on two lane roads. It will squawk in all 4 gears, however, IT NEEDS AN ALIGNMENT . It will go down the road straight but can get a little squirrelly. When you make a turn the wheel doesn�t comeback as easily as it should. Can�t seem to find any old school alignment guys in my area. I�m trying to be as thorough as possible.

Vehicle Details

Very low reserve

1961 ford falcon with 5.0 302 with t10 4 speed.

Motor is stock roller camshaft engine with 74,000 miles.

Detroit speed mini tub kit

And criteria leaf spring relocation. 9�inch rear 3:70 non posi. 10�inch rear drum brakes ( like 65�Shelby)

Front brakes are 1965 mustang dual caliper disc brakes.

Doug�s ceramic headers edelbrock avs carb, 289 torker intake. Motor runs strong. (If someone added set of heads and cam and it would be deadly). New oem brass radiator, gas tank, water pump, fuel pump, hei ignition.

Heater is deleted as is radio. I will include the heater box. Nice (hard to find) front bumper also included. Cpp mini front sub frame kit with tubular control arms. Scott drake power brake booster. New Manual steering box, battery,

Dolphin custom gauges gps Speedo. This car has all the hard to do work done. Could be a killer drag car with a roll bar and other mods.

Car is very lightweight and fast as is .

It needs a front alignment. Goes down the road straight but wheel does not return to center very well when turning. All the tie rods etc. are new.

A baffled fuel cell would be nice because engine fuel starves if tank is low when your going hard through the gears.

Door,trunk, front windshield weather strip are in good shape.

Rear window could use a new seal ( readily available). It leaks just a little when you wash the car . Parking brake cable needs shortened. Wipers work and are electric.all lights, horns turn signals work. Steering column has been modified with mustang turn signal wiring. It has a steering shaft joint so you can easily swap to an aftermarket column if you desire a tilt wheel etc.

Car is super solid from Georgia. Paint is a really old enamel job but has nice patina shine almost like old oem paint. Paint on the hood is a little off on the color but not bad.

I don�t see any large bondo areas. Body is very straight. I mini tubbed because I just couldn�t destroy the quarter panel wheel openings as they are super nice. All trim and mouldings are in excellent shape.

Exterior

Torque thrust wheels are currently on the car the black steel wheels on the front will be included minus the tires which are now on the new front wheels.
