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. 58,000 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 or for additional pictures or to arrange a meeting.
Falcon will be available this Sunday April 7th for all your viewing pleasure at the Melrose Trading Post.
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 Fiesta ST customs get wild at SEMA
Tue, 05 Nov 2013The massive 57-car SEMA showcase by Ford ranges from obvious aftermarket-friendly models like the Mustang, to the not so obvious ones, like the Transit Connect and cute-as-an-explosive-button Fiesta ST. Ford plucked several Fiesta STs for SEMA duty, and we were on the show floor today to get a closer look at some of them.
First up is the striking COBB Tuning and Tanner Foust Racing Fiesta ST (above) finished in a black-and-gray digital camouflage, much like that used in the military, and is meant to raise awareness for the Pat Tillman Foundation. COBB also fitted a three-inch exhaust and a cold-air intake. A new shift knob, carbon-fiber hood and a Kicker stereo round out the mix of upgrades.
MRT got its hands on a Fiesta ST and created a car inspired by Forza Motorsport 5 (below, left). Featuring a two-tone paint job and more performance upgrades than you can shake a stick at, this Fiesta ST is one of the cooler compacts at Ford's stand. A high-performance exhaust system, along with a complimentary COBB induction system, allows the ST to breathe better, while an H&R coil over suspension and Steeda brakes help it stop and turn better than stock.
NHTSA probing 2000-2003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models over throttle issue
Mon, 29 Oct 2012A potential issue with the speed control cable collar has got the 2003-20003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable under the spotlight of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. If the collar breaks it can cause the throttle to be stuck open.
The issue is limited to vehicles with the 3.0-liter V6 Duratec. There are just 50 complaints so far out of 310,000 cars, but the NHTSA has begun an investigation into whether a recall should be issued.
Ford recalls 600,000 older-model sedans for braking issue
Fri, Dec 20 2019Ford is recalling 600,166 older-model Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles over an issue that could affect braking and increase the risk of a crash. The safety recall covers certain Ford Fusion, Mercury Milan and Lincoln MKZ sedans from the 2006 through 2010 model years that were built at Ford’s Hermosillo Assembly Plant in Mexico between Feb. 22, 2006, and July 15, 2009. Ford says a valve that is normally closed inside the hydraulic control unit may get stuck in the open position or be slow to close, which could make it harder to engage the brakes and increase risk of a crash. Ford says itÂ’s aware of 15 reports of accidents and two injuries possibly related to the issue. Dealers will inspect the hydraulic control unit for signs of the problem and replace it, if necessary. The dealers will pressure-flush the system with brake fluid and replace the reservoir cap with a new one. Ford is also issuing a small recall of 33 of its 2020 F-150 trucks in the U.S. and 51 in Canada over potentially damaged spare tires. It says the bead area on the tires may have been damaged when it was mounted onto the wheel assembly, leaving it vulnerable to corrosion, separation of the bead wire and ultimately a rapid loss of air pressure and detachment from the wheel. Dealers will replace the spare tire. Affected vehicles were built at the Dearborn Truck Plant from Nov. 10-21 of this year.
