Vehicle Description
Extremely rare combination of desirable features. Drop dead
beautiful colors too. It is an early production 1964 1/2, #s match.
I sold this car 25 years ago. That is thousands of cars ago but I
remember this one because it is so outstanding. Used occaisionally
and properly stored.
EXTERIOR: This car was a total nut and bolt restoration when I sold
it 25 years ago. It was just freshened up with a new paint job in
it's factory color. The paint is polished like glass. Body is
straight and fits right. The Pagoda green is such an appealing
color especially against the bright white top. All the trim is
bright and shiny. Recently added chrome styled wheels with
turquoise centers and radial redline tires. It also has optional
fog lamps in front.
INTERIOR: The white is an ideal contrast to the exterior. All of
the upholstery still shows really well. Dash area is restored and
detailed. The white steering wheel, chrome bezels, knobs etc look
new. Still has original radio. Yes, that is a factory air
conditioning unit under the dash, that is how Ford did it early on.
Seatbelts have been added. Has original style 4-speed shifter.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Restored as original. The 64 1/2 had unique
features which this car has- D code 289 motor with 4 barrel carb,
generator instead of alternator, red starter relay instead of
black. The power steering reservoir is remotely located. There are
also edges on the corners of the hood that could injure someone if
bumped, they soon started folding that edge over. The components
are proper and have correct finishes. It is very clean looking.
TRUNK: All clean metal painted the exterior color. Under the mat
the gas tank looks new. Has spare with cover.
UNDERSIDE: Restored to concourse specs 25 years ago. Still well
preserved. They correctly painted/primed the floors. The front end
steering and suspension was completely rebuilt. The 4-speed still
has it's original tag designating matching #s. Bottom of motor is
still clean. Assembly line paint markings were correctly
applied.
You can search high and low, you will not find another with these
options and colors. The compliments are constant, especially from
the ladies!
