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. 53,200 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, additional pictures or to arrange a meeting.
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 invests $682 million in Edge-producing Canadian facility
Sun, 22 Sep 2013Ford announced that it's investing $682 million in its Oakville assembly plant in Ontario, Canada, to make it a global manufacturing plant, which the automaker also says secures 2,800 jobs there. Including this injection of cash, Ford has invested over $2 billion in Canada in the last decade, starting with nearly $1 billion for Oakville in 2004, and over $570 million for its Essex Engine Plant in 2010.
The move to make Oakville a global manufacturer of Ford vehicles means, "If consumers suddenly shift their buying habits, we can seamlessly change our production mix without having to idle a plant," says Joe Hinrichs, Ford's president of the Americas.
Ford says that the latest investment will help it meet North American demand for the Oakville-produced Edge crossover, which is on track this year to beat 2007's US sales record of 130,000 Edges. The Ford Flex and Lincoln MKX and MKT are also manufactured at the plant.

Rare Ford Mustang ASC McLaren is a piece of '80s history
Wed, Jun 1 2016You can't blame the dealer for advertising this oddball convertible as a "Ford Mustang McLaren." The name certainly rolls off the tongue better than "Ford Mustang ASC McLaren," and it makes the car sound a whole lot more appealing. However, without the 'ASC' in there, you don't get the full picture. And when it comes to the world of strange automotive collaborations—particularly those of the 80s—you most definitely want the full picture. ASC McLaren Mustangs were the result of fortuitous timing, and a project that was already underway between the American Sunroof Company and McLaren (no, not that McLaren). Detroit custom car builder Peter Muscat brought the idea of a Mustang with a tonneau cover to ASC after chopping the top off a Fox body on his own, and in turn ASC founder Heinz Pretcher brought the concept to Ford. Big blue was already in the midst of relaunching a Mustang convertible, which had been absent from the lineup for 10 years, so initially it was the Mercury Capri that got the ASC/McLaren treatment. The result was a car that was more expensive than a Mustang GT, and coupled with declining sales of the Capri overall, the car was discontinued in 1986, paving the way for the ASC McLaren Mustang you see here on eBay. With the change over to the Mustang as their platform for modification in 1987, ASC McLaren were given the opportunity to create something notable. Customizing the Capri was one thing, but the Mustang name carries with it iconic status. So what did ASC McLaren do with their chance to leave their mark on automotive history? They gave the car some visual modifications, both inside and out, but like the Capri, left the powertrain untouched. Also like the Capri, the cars still ended up costing more than $20,000. Between the high price, the economic woes of the late 80s, and disputes between Muscat and Pretcher, the ASC McLaren Mustangs were no more by 1990. During the three year run, 1,806 ASC McLaren conversions were completed, making them quite rare, especially low mileage examples like this one. The 5.0 V8s are known for being stout engines, capable of handling serious modification, and logging lots of miles, so there are no concerns there. The 5-speed Borg-Warner transmission that came in all Mustang GTs is also known for being a durable unit, the '87-'90 versions especially so. The main concern here would be the life the car has lived, and more importantly where it has lived.
