Vehicle Description
This 1966 Ford Falcon is one of the most attractive and seldom-seen
American cars from the '60s. But it's not the history that makes it
irresistible; it's all the modern upgrades. This is a full
restomod/pro-touring build with a loaded leather interior,
cold-blowing A/C, an upgraded suspension, a five-speed, and an
awesome Coyote V8 fuel-injected V8 heart.
The third-generation Falcon is arguably one of Ford's best designs
of the era. After all, it takes the American Coke-bottle sheet
metal styling and adds some European flair to the proportions. It
makes for a great base for a custom build. The consignor did this
at his shop. That's why you have terrific details like the way the
straight panels are showcased by a tasteful dark blue. This sleek
paint also has a ton of metallic in it, and that makes it really
pop in the sunshine. Complementing the gloss is the radiant style
of the grille, trim, and chrome bumpers. You may just mistake this
for a restoration done to vintage standards... if you don't look at
the rear wheels. Those polished Weld Racing alloys tuck into the
car nicely so that the ultra-wide rear rubber can almost go
incognito.
The interior was part of this car's full
restoration/transformation, and with only about 1,500 miles on the
full build, it continues to look basically brand new. And the full
package is a beautiful style with saddle-like leather and alligator
skin inserts. It makes for a distinct and premium two-tone on the
doors, dash, center console, trunk, and seats. And speaking of the
seats, those are modern front buckets that have plenty of
bolstering and even adjust to your ideal position. You have the
best in modern features like cold-blowing air conditioning, power
windows, cup holders, and an AM/FM/CD stereo with USB and
Bluetooth. While this one is luxurious, the custom setup also
reminds you it's a performance car. The rear seats were sacrificed
for weight savings and firring the upgraded tires. And you have a
commanding driver's position with a Hurst shifter, a Grant sports
steering wheel, a tilt column, and an upgraded full gauge
package.
One look at the engine bay, and you can tell this is something far
more modern powering this classic Falcon. They kept it in the Ford
family when looking for a new powerhouse, and they really picked
out one of the best. It's a 5.0-liter Coyote V8. This is the kind
of modern fuel-injected powerhouse that is related to the V8s that
Ford installs on brand new Mustangs today! The consignor even
states there's only about 16k miles on the motor. And this is far
more than just an engine transplant. You have a five-speed manual
transmission to give you the best control over the enhanced power.
The tubular A-arm front end, ladder bar rear, adjustable coilovers,
power steering, and power brakes with front discs are all part of
the stout but easy driving nature you want in a pro-touring
car.
Complete with build receipts, this is one of the most thoughtful
customs out there that combines uniqueness, comfort, and serious
power. Don't miss this Falcon. Call now!
