This 1965 Ford Falcon Futura has an extra sleek shine to make this
hardtop look speedy. And with some added enhancement to the V8, it
delivers on the power and poise promise that you get from the first
impression.
We like the shade of maroon this car wears. It has a bright style
like red, but the overall tones are deeper for added distinction.
Part of the attraction is also the level of shine on this quality
respray. The good gloss ensures the sunlight rolls over evenly to
show off the pillarless hardtop profile. There's also quality in
the right details, like the clean glass and pliable rubber. The
brightwork is also complete on this example, including the wide
grille, full trim w/hood ornament, and wraparound chrome bumpers.
It all has the right look of a good shine but is never too fancy to
hit the road. After all the Futura the full-length tapered side
streak that makes this look like an arrow always ready to move
forward. Plus, there are subtle upgrades like half-chrome
headlights, polished dual exhaust tips, and Weld racing wheels that
give the right touches of street machine attitude.
The interior offers a mixture of correct components and worthwhile
upgrades. For example, you have the classic bench seats, but they
are now in an attractive gray and silver two-tone. The door panels
were done to match, and the carpeting, dash, and headliner all
coordinate. It makes for a clean and thoughtful style. It has a
nice classic feel everywhere from the steering wheel trim to the
working dome light. But you'll also appreciate the right upgrades
for a better driver, like the auxiliary gauge trio and AM/FM
digital tuner with cassette.
The 289 cubic-inch V8 is one of the best Ford motors around to have
some extra fun. This one shows its peppy style off with a polished
Shelby air cleaner and Edelbrock finned valve covers. As you dig a
little deeper you'll find a Holley four-barrel carburetor and an
Edelbrock Performer intake. This runs strong, and it feels like
there's an upgraded cam that delivers a nice power and a nice tune
to the Flowmaster mufflers on the dual exhaust. Classics like this
want to keep you in touch with the road, but this also likes being
a cruiser. So you have the right features, like the three-speed
automatic transmission, modern touring tires, and front disc
brakes.
This is a well-presented Fold Falcon Futura that has the style and
features you want. So it's ready to cruise as soon as you are. Call
