Vehicle Description
A cool/correct color combo and drop-top style make this 1964 Ford
Falcon Futura convertible quite appealing. The value price is just
the cherry on top.
Skylight blue is a great classic Ford color. Not only is it
factory-correct, but it also makes for a terrific backdrop to all
the brightwork on this car. The wraparound chrome bumpers, textured
grille, and wire wheel cover have a complete and vintage look.
Plus, as a premium Futura, there are nice added details, like the
hood ornament and the arrow-like full-length trim. It makes for a
good-looking cruiser that also leaves room in your budget to
personalize it whatever way you want. And it even has an attractive
style with the roof in place. After all, the light blue with a
bright white convertible top has the same appeal as a sunny summer
sky.
As much as we like this one with the roof up, a convertible is
meant to be open to the world. So with the flip of a switch, the
top powers down to reveal a two-tone blue interior. And this is a
full blue package, including a coordinating boot cover, and so it
really the kind of classic look you want in a vintage cruiser. Nice
door panels, a smooth dash, and all the right vintage pieces really
make this a solid package for those who like to turn back the
clock. While this is highly vintage/stock, you will notice one
upgrade immediately. There's a modern AM/FM/CD stereo with USB
input and Bluetooth cleanly installed under the dash. It means you
can plug in your phone and play your favorite driving music with
ease.
The engine bay has the long block that's the unmistakable look of
Ford's hardy inline six. The 170 cubic-inch unit is the correct
spec for this Falcon, and it has the right stock appearance. We
know there are plenty of V8 powerhouses that can fit under here
with ease, and the value price on this convertible leaves room in
your budget for that. But there's also something to be said about
the smooth nature of the inline powerhouses. And this one already
fires up true and runs nicely. You even take proper control of this
vintage machine with the classic column-shifted three-speed manual
transmission.
Complete with service manuals, this is a true classic that's fun
for today and also lets you think about getting creative for
tomorrow. Don't let this well-priced drop-top slip away, call
today!
