 1961 Ford Falcon Deluxe
Great condition
Very original


No sunroof
No airbags
No power windows
No power door locks
No air conditioning
No anti lock brakes
No cruise control

No radio ...
      This car is a deluxe model with the stainless trim but was ordered with manual transmission and radio delete. The original owner
 was all show no dough. I purchased this car from a collectors widow 10 years ago. She had 5 Falcons to choose from I took the most original in the best condition. The car still had inner tube tires. I did change them to tubeless tires but kept the original white wall look. I reupholstered the seats because I got tired of sitting on hog rings and the springs tore my pants. Over the last 10 years I have rebuilt the carburetor, replace the fuel/vacuum pump, replace the drum brake wheel cylinders, replaced the clutch, replaced thermostat, replaced plug, points, cap and rotor, plus the a fore mentioned tires and interior. This car is in great condition and is driven regularly. I drove it from LA to Phoenix and back last August. It has been very reliable over the years and I wouldn't hesitate to drive it anywhere.  The two issues it has are a tore headliner and it is missing a Falcon emblem on the right fender. The body is very straight. Paint is faded but fair. Tires and glass are in good condition. This is a California car with very little rust and I only say that because if I say no rust somebody will find some cancer somewhere but it is very minor.  This car has been both my wife and my pride and joy for many years and it is time to find another loving owner. If you love having 30 minute conversations with lunatics in the grocery parking lot and/or gas station this is the car for you!  I can't drive anyplace without people going out of their way to relive their youth with a long tail of yesteryear and the Falcon they owned once but that one was blue...   Truly a car the captures much attention, just look at the other people at a stop light and watch them point, thumbs up, honk, flash lights. I had people scream praise while driving on the freeway.  People love this car and you will too.  I am happy to respond to all questions. I have already purchased another vehicle and I am not looking to trade.  Before you ask what is the lowest I will take, the answer is the highest bid. Please understand that by bidding you have committed to purchasing the car at that bid price.  Thanks for looking, good luck bidding!

Weekly Recap: An '80s encore in the auto world

Sat, Jul 11 2015

The '80s returned in a big way this week, as National Lampoon's, Ghostbusters, Miami Vice, and even Tetris were back in the news. While there were far more serious topics (see below), nostalgia mingled with modern marketing to put these Reagan-era favorites back in the spotlight. The '80s were alternately cold and corny at times, but their cultural touchstones can still generate big money. That's why Infiniti recreated an iconic scene from National Lampoon's Vacation (1983) for an advertisement that hawks the QX60 crossover. Actor Ethan Embry, who played Rusty Griswold in a later Lampoon's movie, pilots the Infiniti – which is serving as a modern Family Truckster – for a trip to Walley World. A blonde pulls alongside in a red Lamborghini. They flirt, and she drives on. Christie Brinkley, who played the original girl in the red sports car (she drove a Ferrari in the '83 flick), is riding shotgun and chides Embry with: "A blonde. In a convertible. Seriously?" Okay, it's hardly on the level of "here's looking at you," or even "you can't handle the truth," but it should resonate with '80s babies, many of whom are now having children of their own and moving into three-row SUVs like the QX60. Naturally, Hollywood is going back to the well, too, with a Vacation remake that premiers July 29. Meanwhile, Ghostbusters is returning next year, and director Paul Feig offered a peak at the new Eco-1 in this tweet. In the 1984 classic, the team drove a modified 1959 Cadillac. Now, it will drive a late '80s Cadillac. As expected, the announcement generated support and controversy from movie and car enthusiasts. His tweet had generated several thousand retweets and favorites in the days following the news. Though the '80s Caddy looks, uh, less elegant in comparison to the now-iconic fins and curves of the original Ecto-1, it's about the same time lapse into the past as the '59 Caddy was to viewers in 1984. Speaking of 1984, Miami Vice, which debuted that year on NBC, is seeing one of its hero cars hit the auction block, Mecum Auctions announced this week. The 1986 Ferrari used on the show will be offered for sale Aug. 15 during Monterey classic car week. The white supercar runs a 390-hp flat 12-cylinder engine paired with a five-speed manual transmission and was in storage after the show ended in 1989 until earlier this year. It has 16,124 miles on the odometer and is authenticated by Ferrari North America and Classiche.

Bacon-wrapped Ford Fiesta hams it up for International Bacon Day

Wed, 28 Aug 2013

This is a bacon-wrapped Ford Fiesta. It is a real thing, that a real, multi-billion-dollar company designed. And it isn't even April Fools' Day. Designed for International Bacon Day, which is also apparently a thing, the 2014 Fiesta is finished in Green Envy paint - we're told black paint, like the color of a skillet, made the car look camouflaged - and features 10 gigantic decals depicting strips of tender, cured bacon.
The design, which was approved by the CEO of Benton's Country Hams, Allan Benton, show off the depth of Ford's Custom Graphics program. Unbelievably, Ford will actually start offering bacon decals to everyday customers, including (and we can't believe we're writing this) dual bacon racing stripes which will no doubt have Carroll Shelby spinning and/or salivating in his grave, and a "side of bacon," which wraps a couple of strips over the rear wheels.
Benton, who Ford claims is the King of Bacon, had this to say: "This car just makes so much sense." The Fiesta's marketing manager, Liz Elser added, "It's just awesome to drive down the road in a piece of bacon."

Ford Mustang SVT caught looking fierce on the 'Ring

Tue, 15 Jul 2014

The next-generation Ford Mustang SVT is one of the most anticipated performance cars of the moment. We've already seen it testing multiple times, but it has always been covered is some very heavy camouflage. However, Ford has just given us our best view yet of the new muscle car. According to our spy photographer, the Mustang was at the Nürburgring for high-speed testing, which meant that the Blue Oval had to remove most of the heavy obfuscation that the SVT has worn previously.
The stylish, more revealing camo makes picking out some of the more interesting details about the SVT rather easy. Starting from the front, there is the big hood scoop to feed cold air to its still mysterious engine. You can also immediately make out the model's new grille and lower front air dam. It has a vertical piece running from the bottom of the hood all the way to the ground. The aggressive styling almost gives the 'Stang the look of two fangs ready to bite down. The hood seam is even taped off here, which shows us its outline.
Around the side, it appears that the front and rear fenders are wider than stock, and the sills are certainly much larger. You can also just make out the SVT's bigger brakes behind its black wheels with a polished lip. Finally, at the rear, things appear mostly stock other than the diffuser that the exhaust outlets nestle into.
