For Sale: 1961 Ford Falcon in Lavergne, Tennessee

Vehicle Description

This 1961 Ford Falcon sports a bold red oxide primer exterior topped with a gloss off-white roof, embodying raw hot rod aesthetics. Its gasser stance elevates the body, showcasing the 165/80R15 front and 7.6-15 rear tires. A chrome front bumper contrasts with the painted rear, while a spun aluminum fuel reserve tank up front adds a race-ready touch. Removable decals allow for easy personalization, completing this Falcon's transformation from mild-mannered compact to quarter-mile contender.

Inside, black vinyl and cloth bench seats provide no-frills accommodation. The cabin features a white three-spoke steering wheel and floor-mounted shifter for direct vehicle control. A factory dash, now augmented with auxiliary gauges and a dash-mounted tach, keeps vital information in clear view. The radio delete plate emphasizes this Falcon's focused, performance-oriented interior.

Under the hood, a 289 cubic inch V8 pairs with a C4 3-speed automatic transmission. Long tube headers feed into glasspack-style mufflers, producing an aggressive exhaust note. An aluminum radiator manages engine temperatures, while a Mallory distributor with electronic ignition ensures reliable performance. The straight axle front end and leaf spring rear with traction bars optimize power delivery to the pavement. Drum brakes at all corners provide stopping power for this street-legal dragster.
