I HAVE TEMPORARILY REDUCED HER PRICE FOR A QUICK SALE AS I HAVE SEEN ANOTHER VEHICLE I FANCY , IF I MISS OUT THEN THE PRICE GOES BACK UP AS IM IN NO RUSH AND USING HER REGULARLY.. SHE IS AN ABSOLUTE BARGAIN !
1964 Ford Falcon Futura Convertible . 289 (4. 7) V8 and automatic transmission ( The advert says Manual , it is an Auto but wont let me amend it ). Edelbrock 4 barrel carb with alloy intake manifold fitted. Twin exhaust system with Glasspack silencers gives a fantastic sound to the V8 . Alloy radiator , Alternator, Alloy fuel tank. It's a non power steering car very light with original excellent drum brakes all round. Bodywork is good but not perfect the paint has chips and micro blistering in a couple of places and also a bit of bubbling at the top of the drivers door. Nice clean solid underside. Convertible vinyl excellent condition top is electric and works with a hydraulic pump, (new pump and rams recently fitted) and has a smart clip on cover when its down .. Wheels are polished American Racing alloys with whitewall tyres and are lovely . The chrome is very nice and bumpers perfect Very smart interior , tidy trunk and under the hood . Overall a very nice car that runs and drives extremely well and is always garaged . Easier to live with than most American cars being only 15 feet long and 6ft wide. Speedometer is not working im using a GPS unit that will come with car . It has a nice retro modern sound system. I last drove her a couple of weeks ago for a car meet 70 miles . I have lots of paperwork , factory workshop manual and some spares to include . An unbeatable summer buy if you compare whats out there for the money ready to enjoy top down days . . MerseysideA great fun American classic , easy to drive in modern traffic and used regularly including most recently Oulton Park US Auto meet , fast and reliable its more compact size 15ft make her easy to manage and fits easily in a standard Uk garage .
The great thing is as shes registered ' Historic' so shes inexpensive to own with classic insurance costing me less that £300 per year Fully Comp , Mot Exempt and Road Tax Exempt and shes pretty much only going to appreciate in value so can make a lot more sense than a modern leisure vehicle !
The powerful 289 V8 mated to the twin Glasspack is lively and sounds amazing !
The power top folds completely flat showing off the very tidy interior and with its smart cover looks so cool down .. ready to enjoy the summer I'm still using her .
All the fun of a Mustang for half the cost .
